Desert Power Wagons turns Ram HD into a retro luxury pickup for $425,000 (Instagram @desertpowerwagons)
Desert Power Wagons creates modern versions of the classic Dodge Power Wagon, combining retro design with current technology. Its latest project uses a Ram HD as the base, keeping the vintage appearance but with a fully integrated contemporary interior.
The model, painted in red with black accents, features leather seats with a sophisticated finish and a large touchscreen. Despite the old-school look, the Method Racing wheels and reinforced chassis reveal its modern construction.
Under the hood, the pickup features a 385-hp Cummins 6.7 diesel engine with 930 lb-ft of torque, paired with a six-speed automatic transmission. The mechanical setup stays on the Ram chassis, ensuring robust performance.
The Carli suspension provides 9.5 inches of travel, and the bed, though shallower due to the body adaptation, retains a refined finish with black-stained oak flooring.
Starting at $425,000, each unit requires over 5,000 hours of work, justifying its high price. DPW also offers versions with a Hemi V-8 engine and variations inspired by the WC-53 Carryall.
The exclusivity and level of detailing make this modern Power Wagon as impressive as some supercars.
