According to the latest reports, 2018 Dodge Power Wagon will come pretty much the same as 2017 year model. This is one of the longest-living nameplates in American car industry. It came way back in early 40’s. Firstly, this was an independent model. However, company added this name to the company’s best-known truck called Ram. In this shape, Power Wagon is since 1981 and it still runs. It is a special version of Ram’s heavy duty 2500 truck. Since company prepares a redesign for the next year, it is pretty much for sure that next generation of heavy duty model definitely won’t come before 2018. So, 2018 Dodge Power Wagon will come pretty much unchanged, while new version based on the redesigned model could eventually come as 2019 year model.
