    2020 Power Wagon JUXI Build and Trip Thread

    How much weight (payload) do you think you have added to the truck? I ask because I just towed a camper with a dry weight of around 5500lbs and I was surprised how well it towed. Its tongue weight at a lower center of gravity but I was considering a Thuren rear track bar and/or airbags with...

    Utility RTT: Start from scratch or store-bought-and-build?

    I saw this posted on Facebook the other day and relates to folks starting out by using a Lowes trailer. https://tventuring.com/how-to-upgrade-carry-on-4-x6-utility-trailers-for--t3189.html?fbclid=IwAR0sajZit8r5radefruth3Vfl7vkgY-Fr_nqvypzW49Rlz_jzs0rBSqPOvQ

    The Unnamed - 2019 Ram Power Wagon Build

    Thanks. I'm in the process of purchasing a travel trailer (around 6K gross weight) so I'll see how much droop I get. Also, I'll be making a purchase over at Bullet Point mounting solutions. Glad someone came up with a solution for 5th gen RAMs as I was about to go with Proclip.

    The Unnamed - 2019 Ram Power Wagon Build

    I have been considering the airlift bags paired with daystar cradles for my 2020 PW. Was this direct bolt-on or did it requires some drilling?

    Official MDC USA Introduction

    I joined the MDC Facebook group a few weeks ago as well as reached out to them directly via the MDC USA and AUSRV websites to ask some questions about pricing and availability and not one response. Pretty poor execute if you ask him and this is sales, just imagine how post sales experience would...

    HeliNomad RAM PowerWagon Build

    First time me seeing someone run that tent and I'm very interested as it appears to allow for mounting of lights. I'm adding this to my short list along with the CVT Black Series Alpha. I run a Leitner Designs rack on my Power Wagon and with the bars it sits right about the roof line. Maybe I...

    HeliNomad RAM PowerWagon Build

    I have the lower black stripe on my 2020 which is why I was asking. Love the look of the Toyo MT's but will most likely being going with the Wildpeak ATW3s

    HeliNomad RAM PowerWagon Build

    More and more reasons I'm leaning towards 35" tires and not 37"s. Are you Saltas the Onyx or the Matte Black versions?

    Official MDC USA Introduction

    Is that RV Leaders in Adamsburg, PA? Also, I'm interested in a few of your models but do they also provide 30A shore power and are those cassette toilets and not black tanks?

    2020 Power Wagon JUXI Build and Trip Thread

    Not sure why folks are saying they would not run tires with a D load rating as that's what comes equipped on my 2020 Power Wagon. If you're running a payload that requires an E load rating I suspect that you're over your max payload limit which is no high for the PW.

    The Unnamed - 2019 Ram Power Wagon Build

    I'm going to be moving to GMRS and I'm thinking the MX275 is a good option for the Power Wagon I purchased a week ago. I'm curious how you have the base station mounted in your picture. Is that underneath the drivers dash and are you just using the bracket that comes with the unit or did you...

    The Unnamed - 2019 Ram Power Wagon Build

    I have been trying to decide between the Leitner Designs ACS bed rack and the Expedition One. Looking at your pics I see that the Exp-One using some clamps so have you had any issues with it shifting (i.e., up hills/down hills)? Also how has it held up to the elements of North Carolina?

    HeliNomad RAM PowerWagon Build

    He has a build thread thats pretty popular. I just purchased a PW on Saturday so I'm looking at some lighting options. I also found this but a concern for me would be airflow. Sleekster light bar #34201

    New Bronco

    I'm a current Jeep JKU owner and I'm definitely impressed with what I saw during Ford's official announcement video. One thing that was a disappointment for me as its a issue with JKs is payload capacity and I was hoping for a higher payload. Never owned a ford and this would be 1st generation...

    2020 Black Series HQ 17 Review Part 2

    I think those issues are unacceptable as well but I'd like to note that this is not just a Black Series problem, its an issue for the entire RV industry includes models priced in the six figure range. Currently this is the one thing holding me back from a purchase as I live on the east coast and...

    2020 Black Series HQ 17 Review Part 2

    This is from someone that has not personally toured a Black Series camper but I'm very interested in a HQ12 or HQ15 (which means upgrading my tow vehicle). I have however looked at other US manufacturers at a recent RV show in my area and they claim to be off road ready travel trailers around...

    Black Series HQ Tips, Tricks, and Learning.....

    Based on RV of America Black Series Mod YT video (McHitch: Best OFF-ROAD TRAILER HITCH UPGRADE! Black Series McHitch Mod) I think the McHitch is your best best (Weight Distribution Hitch is optional). I'd give them a call as they can ship you one which may be cheaper than ordering from Australia.
