Is it a Powerwagon or isn't it?

There are two reasons why someone might call an M37 a Powerwagon.
the first is understandable ignorance due to newness to the hobby.
The second is contempt.

Yes, I do think it makes a difference what a Powerwagon is. If not,
why not just collect Chebies and give them whatever name you like?

But it really doesn't serve the hobby well to give new-comers the impression
that if they don't dot the i's just so then they will be banished. There
is indeed a confusing array of Dodge trucks which take time to sort out. Even
some of you old-timers post questions about identification from time to time.

So why do some people call M37's Powerwagons? For the above two reasons. If a guy has
been around these trucks for years and still makes that mistake we might well
conclude that he doesn't care. Maybe he deserves derision.

Let's hold this fire until we see the whites of their eyes.
