To even be considered for the award, a truck had to be completely new or dramatically revised for 2015. Eligible trucks were put through a week of intense testing to see how they performed in five crucial areas: Empirical Data, Exterior, Interior, On-Pavement Performance, and Trail Performance.
“The 2015 Ram Power Wagon is simply everything you want a real pickup to be,” explained Christian Hazel, editor of Four Wheeler. “Plenty of power and load-carrying capability for hauling and towing, well-appointed interior comfort and convenience features, great on-road ride and handling, and jaw-dropping capability in virtually any off-road terrain. The Ram Power Wagon didn’t just win Four Wheeler’s 2015 Pickup Truck of the Year, it blew the competition away.”
The award-winning Power Wagon is based on the Ram 2500HD 4×4 Crew Cab model, but Ram has given it a number of tweaks specifically meant to enhance the off-road driving experience. Powered by a 6.4-liter HEMI, the Power Wagon delivers 410 horsepower and 428 lb-ft of torque. It also boasts an updated suspension suited for off-roading. In short, the Power Wagon was pretty much a shoe-in to win this thing.
