I'm looking to make the switch from my 2013 F150 crew cab to a new 2017 Rebel. This would be my first Mopar since I've had Ford trucks since I started driving 13 years ago.

My 2013 F150 Ecoboost that's my work/ personal truck and with it being a work truck they're not letting me do what I did to this truck for the next one so with dodge making the best factory truck without going to the raptor, it made the decision for me but it wasn't easy.

Thanks guys and I ordered the 2017 Rebel today so now I just have to play the waiting game.

RumRunner · Aug 17, 2016

Congrats, waiting is the tough part. I just picked up my '16 Laramie CC almost 3 weeks ago. I only had to wait maybe 5 weeks or so, but it wasn't easy

Did you end up ordering what is in the pic on your first post? The rambox was an important option for me, and I am so glad I got it.

Thanks and yeah it's going to be tough but at least I have a working truck and not just waiting with nothing. Yeah pretty much as pictured. I decided not to get the factory tow mirrors but put on some power fold tow mirrors since for what ever reason they only give you manual fold from the factory for the 1500s. The Ram Box did look like a good option since I have a bunch of tools in a tool box in the bed now so going from a 6.5' to a 5.5' I'm hoping to keep the bed clear and fit everything in the ram boxes or the rear floor boxes.

That is what I figured with the rambox. Every time I get a truck the first thing I do is put in a toolbox. Now I can use the ramboxes and not take up all that bed space with a toolbox.

I also didn't go with the tow mirrors because there was no option for power fold. I went with the stock power folding mirrors and will change them out if I ever find I need bigger mirrors. Right now I only tow a utility trailer, so don't need the tow mirrors.

I like the blind spot part of them since I have tow mirrors now and love the fact I can see much more than what's to the side of me.
