Is The New Cummins Power Wagon Worth It? | Ep. 340

Episode notes

( https://www.alltfl.com/ ) Check out our new spot to find ALL our content, from news to videos and our podcasts! The crew hits the field for an outdoors, hands-on comparison between two massive heavy-duty off-road rigs: the brand-new 2027 Cummins-powered Ram Power Wagon and a traditional gas-powered Hemi Tradesman Power Wagon. With nearly a $36,000 price difference separating the $67,000 work-ready Hemi from the fully loaded $103,000 Cummins, the guys break down where that extra money actually goes. While the Hemi offers maximum budget-friendly trail capability on 17-inch wheels with a factory Warn winch, the new Cummins diesel brings massive upgrades in utility—boosting payload and towing capacity immensely. Between inspecting the solid axles, front and rear selectable lockers, and sway bar disconnects, the team evaluates whether the heavy-duty diesel engine, upgraded load ratings, and tech-heavy interior are worth the steep jump in price. The guys also cover the latest news sweeping the truck world. They discuss Ram’s controversial new warranty policy targeting short-term TRX buyers and flippers, GMC’s 25th-anniversary Hummer EV Icon edition, and updates on high-performance luxury SUVs like the delayed high-horsepower Infiniti QX80. The team also highlights fresh developments in the compact EV space, including TELLO’s progress toward its affordable electric pickup, before taking a deep dive into the cabin features of both Power Wagons—contrasting analog gauges and cloth seats with 14.5-inch vertical screens and dual wireless chargers.
