Ramcharger, Trailduster & Power Wagon Grrrr!! Tough Trucks! The Dodge Ramcharger and Plymouth Trailduster were full size SUV's that had good looks and brute strength. The Dodge Power Wagon was comparable to them in toughness, but came in pickup truck form only.

hi guys i wanna start out just saying thank you guys for your input im just wondering what to expect from her
okay so i bought her earlier this year from this guy in January its a 1972 dodge w200 4x4 power-wagon she has a a 360 2 barrel eddlebrock
has a 727 torque flight tranny 203 transfercase d44 front and d60 rear 4.11 gears
she has a 3 inch block factory lift in the rear plus another 2 inch blockso 5 inch rear lift and front has 2.5 inch lift she sits level
also on 31 inch atr tires
i wanna know what type of gas mileage i will get if not punching her and when i am
im turing 18 and about to put her on the road for the first time
and yes she is my first she aint pretty but looks great too me
also she has manual locking front hubs
i was wondering what would happen if one hub was turned all the way on and one wasnt also if one was partially turned halfway on and the other fully

Leave the hubs unlocked all the time unless you need the extra traction or you might damage them as for fuel economy your probably looking at around 13 mpg or so if my experience with 360s is right i have a 400 in mine with 35s and it gets 9 or so
