Pretty beeg.
The Dodge sc's can store 5 gallon paint buckets behind the seat with it moved all the way back. I'm 6'4" and have to move the seat up to depress the clutch fully. A no frills ST would sell.

Screwed it up with that box...
The box they put on that concept makes it pretty useless for anything but a day trip! Good luck getting to anything you put back there... my '05 PW is hard enough to reach into the box. The flare sides are just a waste of space and just going to get all banged up on the trails. It doesn't even look like there is a plan for a tailgate... no hardware for it anyway.
The frame in the photos isn't from a Power Wagon... not even close.
Put the spare under the truck where it belongs. why move it higher and wreck the CG.
I do like the flat black paint... thinking about doing my lower rockers the same way myself. dump the lime green:smilies27
Not for me... I wouldn't trade my '05 PW for it.

No hitch either...
Not without a proper hitch... it does not look like they planned for a hitch either.
These concepts seem to always get put together by guys who have never been off pavement... just once I'd like to see one put together with the real world in mind. Nice looking stuff but not well thought out.:littlefriend:

I don't see all the excitement over some Raptor "killer". It is a piece of cake to build a better truck. I know lots of guys with Dodge diesels with Carli suspension that have over 500 hp and 12 inches of travel and can kick any Raptors butt (myself included). Start with a stock truck and add $5-10,000 of upgrades and voila. A full blown race truck that can tow anything. Kore does not have a good reputation amongst those that actually buy and use Dodge diesels and the best suspension systems.

Well, if this concept is like any of the others, they will come out with a cupcake version of it that is shorter, with smaller tires, a regular size bed and decent towing capacity.
All of which suit me just fine BTW. :smiley_drive:
