      That blue GT has a sticker higher than my '19 Ram 2500 4x4 Laramie Crew Cab Cummins diesel! And mine has all the goodies too like 12" screen and all the typical nice stuff. So how is this non TRX 1500 so damn expensive? I'd rather have the Cummins.

    I've got a '21 Tradesman with the ORP, exact same suspension/32" tires/4x4 setup as the Backcountry but cost much less. I do agree with others, the aero package on the front is useless offroad and at least its only a couple bolts to pop off. I don't know many people that would want to take a $70k truck offroad when the base models with minor upgrades (remove aero and put 33/34's) will take them all the exact places...

    This was a great video, nice to see you testing the other trucks in the line up. We all love the TRXs and the Raptors of the world, but nice to see testing on the lower trim level trucks. That Rebel GT sounds amazing. Both very cool trucks, but the GT takes my vote, however that air suspension I am sure will be a maintenance headache down the road.

  • @ShukenFlash
    @ShukenFlash 2 роки тому +2

    Perfect timing, I just saw one of those new G/T Rebels today and was confused by the badging. Now it makes sense why it said G/T on the side.
    Now if only you could actually find these trucks anywhere. I had to settle for a Bighorn without the offroad package because not a single dealer I talked to could get one. They said I'd have to go up to a Laramie or Rebel :P

    First. Love your channels.
    However the air suspension wasn’t helping with ground clearance. When you went that fast. It automatically lowers the ride height(can even see it in the video). However, FYI if you want to keep the maximum ride height. You can pull the fuse to disable the air. Then it will stay in whatever setting it was in last. ( you will get a warning on the dash though saying air suspension needs service)

    The intake picks up cold air in the lower part of grill.
    So with a closed cold air intake your not picking up hot air from headers and motor.
