Another proud PW owner.
And it matches the trailer. :ylsmoke:

Thanks, Chip.
But we got the forcefield as part of the technology package. No pinstripes...

Are you saying that they make diesel Power Wagons for Mexico?:Wow1:

Jeep is traded; Cherokee Dodge in Canton gave me all the numbers that I wanted down to the penny. And they were fairly painless about it; I only had to go one opening round. I was really ready to walk after that but they brought in the sales manager immediately and she figured me out in one shot.
I've never said "kudos" to a dealership before but, kudos to you, Cherokee. Thanks.
Mirtes DID NOT want a black one and that's all that Ed Voyles had.
The PW has a tow package standard (anyone want to buy the brake controller I just ordered? Stump? Great deal...), back-up camera, comfy seat option, super-duper stereo option, Hemi, Luxury group, Technology group, Media center, Remote start.
No nav; I (read "Stumpy") have to figure out how to fab a mount for my GPS.
Other standard stuff of course, e-swaybar-disco, locked at both ends, 33s on 17s, skids, big Warn winch --- I think it's a 10K but have heard that the internals match the 12K.
And I have to read the manual. I mean really read it. This is the first vehicle that I actually need directions to use. 30 GB hard drive? Seriously? :Wow1:

Bill, congratulations! Like Stumpy said: That PW just fits you. (Well done Mirtes on the color; black vehicle in the south, and on the trails ... looks so much better in the red&black combo).
Please pm me the name of the sales person you dealt with at Cherokee; that's were I got my JK from, but the sales guy I worked with back then is not with the company anymore. The lease on my Jeep will be up in August and I will have to do some negotiating!
Sunday 17th I would be available to hit some trails ... <hint><hint>

First bug; can't get the winch to work. No mention of the winch in the manual or on the super duper cd.
Can't find the fuse...
In fact, there is no Power Wagon manual. Nothing in the manual has anything to do with this truck. I'm finding out from the forums that we're essentially on our own. Mopar figures that only an enthusiast would buy one.
Any ideas out there?

Cant help you on the winch, though im sure it'll work itself out. Hell, I dont even see the winch???
Did you leave all the goodies on the Jeep? LED's? All the other armor stuff?
I'd be interested in the controller, hit me back channel with the info. I need one for the Teal ********** and the DD.
Nav mount... no problem. Just let me know what you want/need. Im thinking brushed aluminum and some machined Delrin bits. :elkgrin:
Glad to hear its locked also... thats a nice feature.
Bet it pulls that 'little' teardrop with out even sneezing too....

Mike (d110pickup) came over and we metered the wires out. Got continuity everywhere but the pigtail between the controller and the solenoid; one of the pins wasn't inserted correctly during manufacture.
He was able to push it in place, snick, and voila it works.
Got the garage door opener to work too. The instructions in the manual are different than the dvd; reality is a combination of both.
Got the bluetooth to work from a tip from Latney; instructions were useless on that as well.
No problems anymore...
:victory:
I stuck the suction cup onto a smooth piece of plastic for gps mount, Stump, and it's working pretty well.
But Latney gave me some ideas for a cb mount and I think we have to use your fab skills for that. Maybe I could trade you the controller for a nice bracket and antenna mount.
I can't conceive of drilling into the roof for a K40 like Scott did to his Ranger. :Wow1:
I have to pick up a cb and antenna first.
