The 3 speed on the tree was the base transmission 4wd and 2wd up to maybe 79 or 80. They were not common as most people would pass on buying a rig equipped with it. I believe it was only with the 6 cyl. and 318 8 cyl.. My early 72 was 318 3 on the tree. Converted it to floor shift. Then 318 with a833od. Now its going to be a 360 a833od. The 3 on the tree is just plain worn out in my truck. If I could rebuild or find a decent column, I'd go back. Got many interesting looks shifting the truck on the column, pushing the clutch pedal haha. Definitely a rare bird for sure. Powerwagon as in 4wd not 2wd I know that But the quote was saying that they were available on 2wd and 4wd but not common. I was just offering my truck as an example of a 3 on the tree
