If you dont need a Rebel to haul a family, get the quad cab. The quad cab is so much better looking and having that 6'4 bed is amazing. I own one in dark grey. Beautiful truck.
Day (3) for the add of our 2019 Ram Rebel. So far,, AWESOME. THIS purchase for me,, is one that continues to grow, as I get to know the truck. Very well Done Ram. No need to Dodge the Competitors, Flying High is this Guy.
There is also a “tablet” cut out within the rear cup holder that can support an iPad and other tablets. It can hold them upright for rear passengers to watch.
what a beautiful truck... un real.. it was only just not too long ago trucks were trucks, and women were women. lol. in all seriousness, there is no point in getting an suv anymore, cause trucks now a days are an all-in-one!
Pulled the trigger on a New Red and Black, 2019 Ram Rebel 4 weeks ago got it for $16,000 off MSRP.. I owned a Fourth Gen. 2014 Sport which I loved but I love the Rebel more, what a great truck. Great review thanks
Hii I'm a happy owner of a 2016 Rebel and as soon as I can, buy a 2019 Rebel here in Swiss I'm in. You forget to mention the middle console on the rear seat. Is also new.. But a great Review thank you
I agree 100% with this guy. I have mostly Ram in my large fleet and they hold up better than any other truck I have. They are tough and have gotten so much better; they are easy to service, too. Love that truck you tested.
Not a fan of ram at all. Die hard ford guy. However I like this truck and will be going in soon for a test drive. Ram seems like they’ve really stepped up their game recently. We’ll see what I’ll be driving come the new year. Great video.
Man, these new 18 fords suck. 18 f150 platinum, 5.0. In the dealer more than 10 times for driveability issues, jerking, stalling. Looking at dumping this truck to get my wife in a Ram.
All 3 have recalls and problems so best 2 just get what you like so at least you will like whatever truck your having problems with. My last 3 SUV's have been FCA and so far only 2 recalls 1 for the radio which took 10 mins and another took didn't even take 5 mins because it turns out my SUV was not affected, I pulled up they lift the hood and said your all set not affected.
I agree with you. I own a 2017 Silverado. However, I would consider this for a truck as well. I hate the electronics FCA uses in their vehicles. It seems like you are eternally scrolling through menus. The Silverado's menus seem so much easier to navigate through and read. On my wife's 2017 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk, you reset the oil life indicator by pressing on the gas pedal!
First let me say I'm a Ford guy thru and thru...and own a 2018 Raptor...BUT I consider the Chevy/Ram trucks to be good trucks for sure. I liked the Rebel styling when it first cam out and think Ram did a great job with the interior...except that rotary shift knob, which says anything except performance.
No I have not...but I'm sure the truck will perform rather nicely...My only real complaint was that dang rotary shift knob..The KNOB doesn't say performance, that all...To be fair all my trucks have had a center console shift levers and that's where I really need them to be as I shift manually all the time off road, and towing and of course on the street if need be... How do you manually shift in a Ram with the knob?
Great video review. Just bought the 2019 Rebel in white/black. Very happy with the options, ride quality while driving and the interior is very very high quality.
You should aim for 13% off MSRP + Any rebates at the time. This is what we got on our rebel in CA. The rebate at the time of our purchase was $3500. So we got 13% off MSRP minus additional $3500.
I like the Rebel, but honestly thought the exterior of the old truck looked better, interior of the new truck though is unmatched! Great job on the review!
I'm glad I came across your channel. I am going to be purchasing a new Cummins in about 2 years. I will be checking out Feeny since I'm not far from Midland either. Hopefully I get treated as well as you!!
Thank you Doug! Ask for Mike and tell him I sent you their way. He should be able to help you out. I believe he's been their for 10+ years and is really relaxed. There's nothing I hate more than high pressure sales. Enjoy your new Cummings when the time comes!
They do look nice but too bad that they are soo cheaply built with the lowest quality mechanical components... Ram front ends are brutal and dont last. Cant compare this cheap flashy pos to a chevrolet 😂.
So far wifes '17 powerwagon has only had issues with touch screen. Her '18 cummins, no issues. Her new '19 limited has had suspension problems and brake problems, her screen has issues too. My '19 rebel has had screen problems, suspension issues until upgraded to aftermarket, the stop/start conflicted, and wouldnt start once, got stuck on a mainstreet...our demon had no issues. Our hellcats charger and challenger no problems, trackhawk had clear coat rotting, and screen issues. Wifes new rt charger has had brake issues and various sensor problems, upgraded to brembos all around, and knock off hellcat wheels, lowering kit, hellcat hood, now no problems.
Always been the problem, Dodge makes beautiful cars, but the electronics and body rot/paint problems are terrible, have never fixed them throughout the years.
Good video and review. After all the research of all the full size trucks I bought a Black 2019 Chevy Silverado Crew Cab Trail Boss LT. I love the looks and the proven reliability and durability of the GM trucks. 3000 miles on it and Super happy with the Silverado Trail Boss LT! Solid build quality and many interested buyers after they have seen my truck. Also like the option of the 40/20/40 bench seat up front.
Novice Projects Chevy fell behind on interior this year, because they figured all their previous owners loved the staid design and it’s simple and clean, but I disagree with it. But definitely Chevy for drivetrain, the styling and interior are behind but the Chevy drivetrain is the king, tried and true 5.3 and 6.0 are bulletproof, ford keeps changing drivetrains because they aren’t reliable enough, but they do look beautiful though.
Johnny Bliss tell me why LS motors are considered one of the most sought after and reliable engines for like 20 years going then 😒 saying Chevy transmissions are bad when you’re talking about a dodge is one of the most hilarious things I’ve ever read on the internet, my brother has put 4 transmissions in his ram within 70,000 miles LMAOOOO, Chevy hasn’t made a bad transmission since the 90s
Beautiful truck. I have owned three generations of Sierra but this may be my next truck. Great idea for ram to make two suspension options for the rebel. I don't like the idea of no automatic 4x4 though. Other rams have it but again the rebel doesn't. Note. You don't have to pay 60 grand to get a center console in gm trucks. My 2014 SLE all terrain (only difference from slt is leather) and my truck brand new back in 14 was 48 grand in Canada.
It looks like a great truck you didn't say anything about the air suspension lift what size of full tank I don't know if can give up my ford raptor or not they would have to give me a good trade in it's only 2yrs old with 20k miles.
Those white strips might actually be protective plastic from shipping. We just got a white one on the lot at the dealer I work at, I'll try to remember to look in the next couple days
I did finally remember to look, and the 3 white rebels we have on the lot do not have the white stripes above the rear window, they're black just like years past
When I started looking for my 2016 Ram, it was so hard to find the package that I was looking for with a bench seat. I have 6 people in my family, and we aren’t always in the truck but when we do take it, it’s nice to have. Wish they offered more. All the dealers around me anyway, are 98% center console trucks. Guess I fall in that 2% of people that like my bench lol.
Very nice truck. Ram is number one in interior design. My biggest problem with the brand is how they source parts from other countries. I wish they where more USA made. Slide recline seats are sick. Ram box is awesome. Hemi sounds great. Best camera system. Best tow mirrors.Rear suspension is outrageous. I have not herd of the rear end going out recently. Did they do something different with the Dana 60 ?
It's very disappointing to me that the interior only comes in the black with red trim. I really can't stand the red. It may well be the one thing that keeps me from buying the Rebel.
Frank, I would recommend stopping into your dealer and seeing the interior in person. It's much more toned down in person than it appeared in a few spots in the video.
I love the way the way the Rebel looks, both inside and out, but 55K is just out of my range. I'm very happy with my 2017 F150 Supercab, 2.7L V6 ECOBOOST, W/upgraded STX package. At 37K, it's a lot of truck for the money, and with the turbo charged engine, its a damn rocket.
Tyler Allen : I just purchased a 2018 Ford Raptor about a week ago. If you want something that blends in a little more, get the Ram. If you want something that towers over everything around you and makes heads turn when you pull into a valet parking area, get the Raptor. Obviously the Raptor is more expensive too, so there’s that.
I was going to buy the Raptor, until I saw the new 2019 Rebel. When comparing the two, the Rebel won out over the Raptor, plus I spent about $20k less! Interior in the Rebel is by far superior to the dated/cheap looking interior in the Raptor. HP still goes to the Raptor by about 50HP, but Torque goes to the Rebel, especially, if eTorque equipped like mine, an extra 130 ft/lbs at take off and low speed. I didn’t get the air suspension, I prefer the tuned off-road Bilstein that mine has. As far as comments when parking or pulling up to stop lights, the common comment I get is, that’s a beast! The standard 35” tall Goodyear Duratrac All Terrain tires really adds to the beast look and are actually very smooth when doing driving on the highway and in town. The suspension ride on the highway and in the city, for a tuned off-road suspension, is amazingly compliant and pleasant but when taken off-road, it does what it’s designed for. As far as interior comfort, I”m 6’4” and have plenty of legroom and the seats are very comfortable. I driven for over 3 hours without stopping so far, and feel just as good as I did when I started. I could have easily gone another 3 or 4 hours! Interior noise level is amazingly quiet! My Rebel has the active noise quieting system, and really works! This is the most quiet vehicle I’ve ever ridden in. My neighbor has a 2017 Raptor, and that was a factor in my desire to get the Raptor. Fortunately, all the hype about “The All New 2019 Ram”, caused me to take a look at it. All I can say is believe the hype! RAM did their homework on the 2019 1500 series, and the Rebel is worth it. If you’re still not convinced this year, wait until the 2020 Rebel TR with the rumored 565 HP normally aspirated 7.0L (426ci, for you old timers like me) Hemi or the TRX with 707HP super-charged 6.3L (read Hellcat) engine. The TR will probably be comparatively priced to the Raptor. For me, the 2019 Rebel won over the Raptor.
Charles Hoffman : I looked at a Rebel with my brother (he’s a Dodge guy) and honestly wasn’t impressed with its interior compared to my Raptor. But to each their own.
I have a Ram Laramie and I love it. Had a 2015 Ram Big Horn prior. My issue is 56,000 no cooled seats, no wireless charging. This truck is priced too high. Nice truck just over priced.
The Laramie has cooled seats, at least as an option. And like stated, pay attention to rebates. As annoying as it can be, it pays to sign up for email newsletters for both your dealer of choice and Ram
I can't stand all that red... dealer near me offered to replace all the seats, but the red leather door panels would have to stay... and they still want $57k! Sorry boys, DEAL BREAKER!
Apex Reviews is the stop start feature only in the eTorque configuration? please say yes LOL. Also whats your opinion on using a knob gear changer? IDK why FCA insists on this design rather than a nice center shift.
Sharp truck dude i like it i have had my eyes on a DODGE ram 1500 for awhile now ready to buy soon. Does that come with or what can you tell me about the panoramic sunroof should i or should i not is it too much trouble i LOVE the look of that big time.
Dick Berry not everyone buys a truck to fit into a crowd and drink Busch lites in. Some of us like the comfort and looks of a 1500, and daily driveability, any new 1500 can tow/work more than anything your average pickup truck oriented dude. The only reason most people get 2500s and 3500s is to try and act cool, and think looking more obese and American makes you a better person. 😂 but any 19 truck will blow away a 12 truck that’s already rotting out, esp if it’s a dodge.
Excellent video. Any idea what fuel economy actually is for the Rebel? I know they have it listed at 17 and 22, but it doesn't sound like that's the case from what I've been seeing online. Not even close in fact. Any insight on this?
Not a Dodge/Ram fan, saying that I really like the Rebel. Perfect mix of off-road and daily driver. Power Wagon is too Off-road oriented. Just hope the reliability isn’t typical Dodge like!
I have a 17 Rebel and love it, still trying to love the 19 body style but growing on me. Think the Rebel looks better than the rest. Hate the chrome on the new others. Those hood scoops are just for looks though.
Apex Reviews, what kind of mpg are you getting? Also, thanks for the detailed information about the interior. How's the E torque- start stop? The concept seems to make sense to me.
I'd like to know the cheapest way to replace/convert a 2019 Ram 1500 Laramie (off road version) front with the Rebel style front. I'm mainly interested in the lower spoiler part and area of the Laramie being taken off, so it gets more clearance like the Rebel's does. Also, who's got the cheapest and best add on step for the rear bumper for easier access into the bed? Mopar one from the dealer is too expensive (300+ dollars.) Bestop has one available for both passenger and drivers side at 150 bucks, but not sure yet if it's a sure fit for the 2019 Ram 1500 Laramie crew cab. Anyone know? I really am appreciating the front and rear parking sensors.
So with a lithium ion battery how’s that supposed to work with it’s flipping cold out? Will the hybrid system not work? Ram said they still use a normal 12v battery to start the truck b/c a conventional battery will start the truck better. So that’s what I’m wondering about... will the hybrid system be useless in the winter ?
the start-stop feature runs from the 12 volt battery, not the actual lithium ion etorque battery. but as all 'hybrids', the battery will have to just warm up before it works to its full potential which takes a few minutes. if a full-battery powered tesla can work in canada, im sure this etorque will work just fine :)
Take good care of it treat it right should last a long time I want the ram rebel over the Toyota Tundra but I’m not sure what to go with the tundra lack of style inside and outside it just plain ugly but I’m not gonna lie that tundra engine is reliable but I’m not sure either 2019 ram rebel or tundra
Nice truck but I can't get past a radio knob for the transmission. Love the center console on my Ford f150, great for driving in manual on street and off-road.
Ptguy0618 not really tried and true, the hero’s have been pretty unreliable with blowing up and having premature exhaust leaks at the manifolds, nice truck though.
It's a okay truck compared to the competition. But why must ram continue to use that plastic black front grille atleast paint it Black or even better make it out of a metal. It would be so much better looking if it didn't have a flat plastic look.
Dodge hit a home run with the interior. Start/Stop Technology is a bad system and proving VERY unpopular. FCA recalling 5.2 million trucks made me check them off my list right away.
The more I look at this RAM the more it becomes obvious how far Chevy fell short on the new Silverado... Beautiful truck.
Darryl Lombardi yes. Now Chevy installs engines upside down
The new silverados look fugly
This is an amazing truck, seriously, this truck isn’t intended to compete with the Raptor but from a design perspective, I think this might be better!
I have a 2019 White Ram Rebel and I love everything about it
Should I get a limited black edition or rebel red color
I bought a white with the black trim as well. LOVE IT! Still looking for fender flares/bushwhackers for it. Nobody has come out with them yet.
@@johnmcclane7967 I have to say I love the red interior. subtle in the front and looks great. Love everything about my Rebel
do you have air suspension?@Autumnleaf2011
Appreciate the response. I'd be the same. Not anything crazy off roading, so would like a comfortable ride. @Autumnleaf2011
If you dont need a Rebel to haul a family, get the quad cab. The quad cab is so much better looking and having that 6'4 bed is amazing. I own one in dark grey. Beautiful truck.
That build is spot on how I would spec it - the white looks great/subdued. Thanks for the walk around!
Bought mine 2 months ago at 21 for 60,000 love this truck truly worth it
mike80449 nice . It’s good for daily drive . ?
Day (3) for the add of our 2019 Ram Rebel. So far,, AWESOME.
THIS purchase for me,, is one that continues to grow, as I get to know the truck. Very well Done Ram.
No need to Dodge the Competitors,
Flying High is this Guy.
Best truck and trim on the market in my opinion!
There is also a “tablet” cut out within the rear cup holder that can support an iPad and other tablets. It can hold them upright for rear passengers to watch.
what a beautiful truck... un real..
it was only just not too long ago trucks were trucks, and women were women. lol.
in all seriousness, there is no point in getting an suv anymore, cause trucks now a days are an all-in-one!
Font TRASH Nation tbh if you get the eTorque model, it ain’t bad. Considering how much it weighs and suck
I don’t believe mine is etorque. And frankly? I don’t care. Cuz I can afford the extra 1-2k in gas per year. (Or whatever the disadvantage might be)
Pulled the trigger on a New Red and Black, 2019 Ram Rebel 4 weeks ago got it for $16,000 off MSRP.. I owned a Fourth Gen. 2014 Sport which I loved but I love the Rebel more, what a great truck. Great review thanks
Thanks for the video. Definitely made my choice easier. Just picked up my rebel on Wednesday and I’m loving it. Cheers
I have a 2019 Ram lone star blackout package and I love it. Best truck on the market
Hii
I'm a happy owner of a 2016 Rebel and as soon as I can, buy a 2019 Rebel here in Swiss I'm in.
You forget to mention the middle console on the rear seat. Is also new..
But a great Review thank you
I agree 100% with this guy. I have mostly Ram in my large fleet and they hold up better than any other truck I have. They are tough and have gotten so much better; they are easy to service, too. Love that truck you tested.
Guess you've never experienced a Toyota Tundra.
@@凸̀_́凸-x2b I have. Never again. Horrible mpg big plastic interior. I'm over Tundra.
Not a fan of ram at all. Die hard ford guy. However I like this truck and will be going in soon for a test drive. Ram seems like they’ve really stepped up their game recently. We’ll see what I’ll be driving come the new year. Great video.
Man, these new 18 fords suck. 18 f150 platinum, 5.0. In the dealer more than 10 times for driveability issues, jerking, stalling. Looking at dumping this truck to get my wife in a Ram.
steve scott might want to look at FCA recalls with the ram and other vehicles FCA owns. I actually do hope they step up their game
All 3 have recalls and problems so best 2 just get what you like so at least you will like whatever truck your having problems with. My last 3 SUV's have been FCA and so far only 2 recalls 1 for the radio which took 10 mins and another took didn't even take 5 mins because it turns out my SUV was not affected, I pulled up they lift the hood and said your all set not affected.

Why I don't buy cars I lease. and they run just fine for 3 years after that I don't care because I will be in a new one by then.

Great video review. Just bought the 2019 Rebel in white/black. Very happy with the options, ride quality while driving and the interior is very very high quality.
I just bought 2018 Rebel 4months ago,$39000 out the door,fully loaded,so don’t pay the Msrp price
How?
Crybabehot that’s Canadian price though.
Who pays msrp?
@@HunchoDC does it really not come with navigation at 40k that's ridiculous

Excellent report. Need it to be 35K 😭
I think I’m going to go pick this truck up on Thursday. Fingers crossed I get a good deal. Beautiful truck!
Even though I've gotten use to the rotary shift in my Lonestar, I feel the Rebel should have a shift in the console.
Best Dodge Ram 1500 Rebel Ever-A Nice Smooth Truck
Wait til the Rebel TRX comes out that truck will be a beast

Very well done! Very methodical and informative.
This is the type of truck I would drive in Mexico, and get pulled over by cops thinking I'm in the cartel. Lol. Great video BTW !!!
And Get Your Truck Jacked By The Cartel 🤣
That truck is Siiiiick!...gotta have me one
Chevy got there ass kicked this year
They (Chevy) put on the worst off road shocks out there..Ranchos!...WTF?
They do look nice but too bad that they are soo cheaply built with the lowest quality mechanical components... Ram front ends are brutal and dont last. Cant compare this cheap flashy pos to a chevrolet 😂.
So does Ford...
Lifelong GM guy, getting a RAM. Brand loyalty is what they bank on to give people a inferior product
Lol pos , you mean Chevy.
So far wifes '17 powerwagon has only had issues with touch screen. Her '18 cummins, no issues. Her new '19 limited has had suspension problems and brake problems, her screen has issues too. My '19 rebel has had screen problems, suspension issues until upgraded to aftermarket, the stop/start conflicted, and wouldnt start once, got stuck on a mainstreet...our demon had no issues.

Wifes new rt charger has had brake issues and various sensor problems, upgraded to brembos all around, and knock off hellcat wheels, lowering kit, hellcat hood, now no problems.
Ptguy0618 I would but retain purchases for relevancy and a few are OGPs for SEMA hahaha, so... its all good.
You sound like a real FCA fan. I personally would like to get a T/A 392 Challenger.
Always been the problem, Dodge makes beautiful cars, but the electronics and body rot/paint problems are terrible, have never fixed them throughout the years.
Better than Chevy trying to install the engines upside down
The simulated diamond accents is actually carbon fiber accents
No the top piece above the radio is simulated diamond plate not simulated carbon fiber. I picked my new truck up a week ago.
Good video and review.
After all the research of all the full size trucks I bought a Black 2019 Chevy Silverado Crew Cab Trail Boss LT.

love your reviews
Yup wont touch one unless they offer a solid black interior with full leather. Red accents make it look like a teenagers wet dream with plasti dip
Dodge interior and/or exterior designing, Ford's tech/powertrain, and Chevy's........ummmm rear bumper with the steps, yeah. = best truck ever.

I love this new Rebel
Truck looks good except for the red interior and those two white strips above and below the sliding rear window. They need to be black.
Those white strips might actually be protective plastic from shipping. We just got a white one on the lot at the dealer I work at, I'll try to remember to look in the next couple days
I did finally remember to look, and the 3 white rebels we have on the lot do not have the white stripes above the rear window, they're black just like years past
It’s protective film. Mine had it while it was on the lot. The clean up guy removed them.
Wow, i feel like i need this..

i have a new rebel as you and i also added the "BorlaAtak"👍👍😎!
I actually live just north of Feeny in Larkin Township. Lol. And I've got the twin to this truck only a 2018.
Great review. Since the Rebel is built more towards off road, do you think the ride quality is acceptable as a daily driver?
Ford's blind spot monitoring can detect trailers blind spots
Question is it true that the 2019 Dodge Ram Rebel come from factory with a 1"lift?
Roger true
Great review!
It's very disappointing to me that the interior only comes in the black with red trim. I really can't stand the red. It may well be the one thing that keeps me from buying the Rebel.

I wouldn’t buy it with the red interior either. We’re gonna have to wait til the rebel black comes out like they had with the 4th gens
Apex Reviews I've seen it in person... still too much for me. I need the dark soothing colors when I'm stuck in LA traffic for 2 hours.
acar326 the 2019 in a Rebel Black trim would be excellent! Have you heard that they're bringing it back?
I feel like it should say Rebel on front grille, Ram on tailgate, not Ram on both.
Man I’m in a hard decision. choosing between a Ford Raptor or a Dodge Rebel for my next vehicle
Tyler Allen : I just purchased a 2018 Ford Raptor about a week ago. If you want something that blends in a little more, get the Ram. If you want something that towers over everything around you and makes heads turn when you pull into a valet parking area, get the Raptor. Obviously the Raptor is more expensive too, so there’s that.

I didn’t get the air suspension, I prefer the tuned off-road Bilstein that mine has. As far as comments when parking or pulling up to stop lights, the common comment I get is, that’s a beast! The standard 35” tall Goodyear Duratrac All Terrain tires really adds to the beast look and are actually very smooth when doing driving on the highway and in town. The suspension ride on the highway and in the city, for a tuned off-road suspension, is amazingly compliant and pleasant but when taken off-road, it does what it’s designed for. As far as interior comfort, I”m 6’4” and have plenty of legroom and the seats are very comfortable. I driven for over 3 hours without stopping so far, and feel just as good as I did when I started. I could have easily gone another 3 or 4 hours! Interior noise level is amazingly quiet! My Rebel has the active noise quieting system, and really works! This is the most quiet vehicle I’ve ever ridden in. My neighbor has a 2017 Raptor, and that was a factor in my desire to get the Raptor. Fortunately, all the hype about “The All New 2019 Ram”, caused me to take a look at it. All I can say is believe the hype! RAM did their homework on the 2019 1500 series, and the Rebel is worth it. If you’re still not convinced this year, wait until the 2020 Rebel TR with the rumored 565 HP normally aspirated 7.0L (426ci, for you old timers like me) Hemi or the TRX with 707HP super-charged 6.3L (read Hellcat) engine. The TR will probably be comparatively priced to the Raptor. For me, the 2019 Rebel won over the Raptor.
Charles Hoffman : I looked at a Rebel with my brother (he’s a Dodge guy) and honestly wasn’t impressed with its interior compared to my Raptor. But to each their own.
I have a Ram Laramie and I love it. Had a 2015 Ram Big Horn prior. My issue is 56,000 no cooled seats, no wireless charging. This truck is priced too high. Nice truck just over priced.
Craig Walker wait until the end of year and get the 10k rebate that is usually offered to clear inventory.
Marcus Aponte thank you I am going to!
I'm also interested in cooled seats. Others have it.
The Laramie has cooled seats, at least as an option. And like stated, pay attention to rebates. As annoying as it can be, it pays to sign up for email newsletters for both your dealer of choice and Ram
They offer a 10K rebate? Never heard of it. So 10k rebate + dealer's discount. You'd be getting close to 17K off.
Nice review! 👍 I have a 2020 Bighorn Night Edition with the non eTorque HEMI. It is so nice! I’m curious why this truck didn’t have Auto 4wd?
does it have a memory for the driver seat ? I know some higher trim have. Thanks ! gerat video !
I Love the trunk
I can't stand all that red... dealer near me offered to replace all the seats, but the red leather door panels would have to stay... and they still want $57k!
Sorry boys, DEAL BREAKER!
To bad for you chevy boy
The hood vents are not functional. They’re are for looks only. Great review though. Keep it up.
Rob Leatherberry maybe cuz they have those small drain holes? lol
Good in depth review of the Ram.
Apex Reviews is the stop start feature only in the eTorque configuration? please say yes LOL. Also whats your opinion on using a knob gear changer? IDK why FCA insists on this design rather than a nice center shift.
Sharp truck dude i like it i have had my eyes on a DODGE ram 1500 for awhile now ready to buy soon. Does that come with or what can you tell me about the panoramic sunroof should i or should i not is it too much trouble i LOVE the look of that big time.
Very nice video/review.
Nice area. Nice truck.
Good video!
4th gen Ram 2500 is still the best looking truck on the road.
Nah those look too douchey, makes you look like a guido with spiked up hair listening to techno with an upside down visor, not a hat, a visor.
my 12 poops 💩 all over these new trucks 😂
Dick Berry not everyone buys a truck to fit into a crowd and drink Busch lites in. Some of us like the comfort and looks of a 1500, and daily driveability, any new 1500 can tow/work more than anything your average pickup truck oriented dude. The only reason most people get 2500s and 3500s is to try and act cool, and think looking more obese and American makes you a better person. 😂 but any 19 truck will blow away a 12 truck that’s already rotting out, esp if it’s a dodge.
Jared Champagne I poop on you 💩 too. Enjoy your new truck beta man
Dick Berry your one of those guys who thinks your stuff is better than everyone else’s even though it’s the same product all of us buy 😆
Apple CarPlay does not work well on the 12 inch screen it drops and re connects switches back and forth to Bluetooth randomly
Nice truck
Excellent video. Any idea what fuel economy actually is for the Rebel? I know they have it listed at 17 and 22, but it doesn't sound like that's the case from what I've been seeing online. Not even close in fact. Any insight on this?
I’m getting about 16.5-17 mixed and about 20 on the interstate on long trips. Be easy with your foot and you’ll be ok. Or get the 3.0 diesel.
@@Falcon241073 I have a 2016 Ram Rebel; I have gotten as much as 24 MPG on highway--keep speeds at or around 60-63 MPG on highways. Excellent truck!
Not a Dodge/Ram fan, saying that I really like the Rebel. Perfect mix of off-road and daily driver. Power Wagon is too Off-road oriented. Just hope the reliability isn’t typical Dodge like!
I have a 17 Rebel and love it, still trying to love the 19 body style but growing on me. Think the Rebel looks better than the rest. Hate the chrome on the new others. Those hood scoops are just for looks though.
No spray in bed liner in a truck that’s above $40k hmm
Aftermarket spray in bed liners are just fine. Not a deal breaker in my opinion.
Dealers order them from the factory that way so they can sell you their own spray in bed liner as an accessory
Apex Reviews, what kind of mpg are you getting? Also, thanks for the detailed information about the interior. How's the E torque- start stop? The concept seems to make sense to me.
I like this truck
Didn't know they used the metric system in Michigan
Do they make the rebel with the 12” screen? If I buy another ram. It’ll have to have that beast in it !
Semi Auto you really need a a a wide screen TV on the dash? I think that’s cheesy.
Yes, look for the Rebel 12 package
I'd like to know the cheapest way to replace/convert a 2019 Ram 1500 Laramie (off road version) front with the Rebel style front. I'm mainly interested in the lower spoiler part and area of the Laramie being taken off, so it gets more clearance like the Rebel's does. Also, who's got the cheapest and best add on step for the rear bumper for easier access into the bed? Mopar one from the dealer is too expensive (300+ dollars.) Bestop has one available for both passenger and drivers side at 150 bucks, but not sure yet if it's a sure fit for the 2019 Ram 1500 Laramie crew cab. Anyone know? I really am appreciating the front and rear parking sensors.
Ram always drops of their trucks at least $10,000 when they release their new models. Don’t ever buy the new model until it becomes the old model
Thomas Hofstetter some of us like the novelty of having the newest body style, all trucks get 10 grand cheaper when the new one comes out.
So with a lithium ion battery how’s that supposed to work with it’s flipping cold out? Will the hybrid system not work? Ram said they still use a normal 12v battery to start the truck b/c a conventional battery will start the truck better.
So that’s what I’m wondering about... will the hybrid system be useless in the winter ?
the start-stop feature runs from the 12 volt battery, not the actual lithium ion etorque battery. but as all 'hybrids', the battery will have to just warm up before it works to its full potential which takes a few minutes. if a full-battery powered tesla can work in canada, im sure this etorque will work just fine :)
What is your opinion on the new 3.6 24 VVT Liter V6 in the 2019 Rebel?
Frank Miller get the damn 5.7, the 3.6 would be a complete waste of money and time
Does this one have air suspension? And is it any better getting thst option vs non air.
witch truck is better 2019 Dodge Ram Longhorn for the 2019 Dodge Ram Rebel?
Anyone know if this truck can be driven in 4WD high on dry pavement? I didn't see a 4WD Auto mode.
Do the 2020 Rebels come with a facory lift? They seem to sit higher than most 1500 trucks.
AJW, I agree. The Rebel comes with a factory 1" lift w/ Bilstein shocks. They have a real nice stance from the factory. 👍
THIS A LUXURY RIDE TRUCK WITH SOME GOOD OFF ROAD CAPABILITY,. NOT A ROCK CRAWLER,. BUY A JEEP FOR THAT
Raptor all day
zodiac1281 id say the same thing, until I found out they only offer some over engineered v6, no thanks, I’ll take an old school pushrod v8.
What's the noise level like with those tires on the road ?
Take good care of it treat it right should last a long time I want the ram rebel over the Toyota Tundra but I’m not sure what to go with the tundra lack of style inside and outside it just plain ugly but I’m not gonna lie that tundra engine is reliable but I’m not sure either 2019 ram rebel or tundra
Nice truck but I can't get past a radio knob for the transmission. Love the center console on my Ford f150, great for driving in manual on street and off-road.
This one didn't have the 12 inch screen that the rebel can get.
Does the truck come from the factory leveled?
I hope they didn’t mess up the hemi
Ptguy0618 not really tried and true, the hero’s have been pretty unreliable with blowing up and having premature exhaust leaks at the manifolds, nice truck though.
Damnit i wish this thing was a little cheaper.. ill have a to wait a few years before considering buying with my broke ass
Did they give you the extra lugs? Any specific reason like bad lugs?
Those are the ones they took off so they could put on the locking lugs.
No air suspension or skid plates ??
It's a okay truck compared to the competition. But why must ram continue to use that plastic black front grille atleast paint it Black or even better make it out of a metal. It would be so much better looking if it didn't have a flat plastic look.
Only thing missing is a ram box
Is that the upgraded hood or is that standard . Thank you
Mark, this hood comes standard on the Rebel trim. Thanks for watching!
Dodge hit a home run with the interior. Start/Stop Technology is a bad system and proving VERY unpopular. FCA recalling 5.2 million trucks made me check them off my list right away.
