Default How many Power Wagons are made?

Just curious, how many Power Wagons are made each year compared to total Ram production?

Just bumping this back to the top, hoping that someone might know the answer. I hardly ever see another PW. I think I've only seen 3 other than mine on the road in the past year or so. That leads me to believe they don't make very many, so I was just curious how many are actually made each year.

I couldn't find anything searching the web. I'll bet Dodge customer service has the info.

I am looking to buy a Power Wagon immediately and I drove 3 hours to Cincinnati today to look at a regular cab. The only other one close to me (according to the dealer locator) is in Pennsylvania 8 hours away. They are rare indeed.

Yeah, I drove 4 1/2 hours to get mine, which was the last '06 in Colorado. The next closest one was in Salt Lake City, and was the last one in Utah, but it sold the week before I bought mine. I feel very fortunate to have gotten mine.

On a slightly different topic, the first real long road trip I took withmine was to Michigan to see relatives at Christmas. Along the way, I stopped at the Iowa 80 Truck Stop (the world's largest truck stop), where inside, they had a '49 Power Wagon on display. It was awesome, in perfect condition. I'm still kicking myself for not taking pictures of it.

I have a '05 #1758, When I was looking, I think I saw one in the 2300's, but this is not an exact number, obviously, just a guesstimate.

Hey, those with '06's-'07's, do they still number them? It was the last 4 (might be 5 now?) numbers of the VIN.

That would be a nice show toy.[sm=loveeyes.gif]

Where at? We could have had a couple beers. A 2 man PW gathering.

Ypsilanti, at the inlaws, and Jackson (Spring Arbor, actually) at my parents'. The wife and I are planning on going back in April. If you want to meet up, first round's on me.

The last 4 digits on my 2006 P-Dub's VIN is around 7200...

My '06 last 4 is 1068, which is too low for sequentially numbered for all years based on your '05.And last 5 is 81068, which is too high to believe, so I guess it's by model year?
My window sticker says "Sequentially numbered Power Wagon."

I've only seen one 3rd gen. Power Wagon anywhere other than at dealer lots. I chased him down from behind and passed him with a mutual thumbs-up! It was Mineral Gray metallic QC. The PW tail gate emblems can be seen from a long distance!

Here in Cali, there are lots of specialized Dodge dealerships. Some havemany moretrucks than cars. When I was web searching my purchase, I found one within 30 miles that had three PW's at one time. The only one I found with leather was 150 miles away, wrong color (red), and too heavily optioned. The one I got was 15 miles away and was the only Power Wagon on the lot at the time. That dealership had literally hundreds of trucks (Hartzheim Dodge- San Jose).
Most dealerships searched had zero PW's, and even Diesel trucksare hard to find although DCM sells more Diesels than gas HD trucks.
I went to a Dealer in Fresno (large farming area) and they didn't have squat, just a bunch of $50k Laramie Diesels. The Salesman there had never even heard of a Power Wagon... LOL.
