Definitely a truck I've enjoyed, but is it worth the cost to you or are you an "Anything but Dodge" kinda person?

My wife was in the market for a TRX and we test drove a few and almost signed off on one, but then she saw a 24 Rebel 2500. She test drove it and fell in love, more than the exciting TRX. it is a solid and surprisingly a comfortable truck. We Love it.

I think that’s en excellent decision! Both great trucks, but the TRX is highly impractical that makes you sacrifice to daily it. I hope the Rebel continues to please, super solid and I’m a big fan.

Most trucks on the market that claim to be 4X4 or off road trucks are actually not very capable. They don’t have hardly any under body protection and they don’t have locking diffs. It’s a marketing ploy. Without at least having rear lockers, you’re only going to have two wheel drive in slippery situations, one wheel spinning in the front, and one wheel spinning in the rear. This truck is a work truck with plenty of under body protection, rear lockers, and a helical gear limited slip rear differential. It’s definitely fun off road, but when you have to tow a heavy load through mountain trails, up and down muddy and snow covered roads, or across any uneven terrain, this truck will out preform most any other truck in those situations.

I would like to have seen more skid plates in under it, really the big one is the fuel tank plate but leaves other open spots.

A lot of money for a truck you can't get in Mega cab or 8ft bed or larger capacity fuel tank or front sway disconnect or front locker. And you can't get it in a 1 ton 3500 either. It is a nice vehicle but I'll end up buying one with under 30k miles on it a whole lot cheaper in very good condition. Or I'll buy a new Ford XL with long bed and off road package and winch with much higher payload and fuel tank. For about 60k brand new 69k if you want diesel engine. You can also get the Ford with lower gearing for towing and off road.

That's the truth! Trucks can be nuts expensive. Really now a-days you pick your needs and set the budget. Everyone has better or worse on specifics, but thankfully there are so many options you can find the brand that has the exact specs for your needs. Personally have never needed an 8 ft bed, but I am a fan of the larger cap fuel tanks.

Does the Rebel 2500 have the factory lift kit like the Power Wagon has?
@PhilipBlank

I believe the 2024 Rebel has 13.3 ground clearance where the PW has 14.2 so the factory height is not the same, the Rebel is a bit more towing focused without the sway bar disconnect in the front.

What's the payload capacity on this one?
@PhilipBlank
5 күн бұрын
The payload on this guy is a bit over 3000 pounds, I believe it’s like 3,100 or so but would have to check with the air ride suspension if that reduces it.

What is the specs of the rims and tires and do u have a lift it in or level kit or is is on completely stock suspension I have a 2023 same truck just wit the diesel motor wit rear air I want to put 35” on it but not trying to do any suspension modification I like it to keep it all stock suspension so if you could tell me what size the tires are what size the rims are the whole package and if you have any suspension modification or if it’s all stock suspension and do you have any issues any rubbing wit the tires on any suspension parts

Oh goodness! You want all the stats, I believe this is everything: the suspension has not been touched, all stock. It does have the air ride in the back as well. The rims are Fuel Blitz D674, 20mm offset PN D67418908257. The tires are Nitto Ridge Grapplers in 35x12.50 R 18LT. They fit fine, I’ve read you can even fit 37’s but they are tight. Now you’re running the Cummins that weighs significantly more up front, so unless Ram changed the coils for the extra weight, there is a chance your going to droop more on stock suspension so no guarantees you don’t have rub concerns on the front even with 35’s, just need to find you a good tire place who would let you do a fit-up and trial to test before going all in. Like all tires it can be trial and error.
