    NEW TIRES FOR REBEL

    I got over 50K on my TOYO Open country's (Stock on my 2016 Rebel). Just replaced them recently and they still had about 4/32. I wanted fresh tread for the winter. I replaced them with Mastercraft AXT2s. The Toyo's always did pretty good in the snow and off road. They were always a little...

    Buying a Rebel - Air Suspension a must?

    Hello, all. I haven't posted in a while, but had a recent experience relative to the ride comfort of the air suspension. I've been very critical of this system (especially because of how slow it moves and it's propensity to freeze up (not work) during very cold temperatures. However.....I...

    Fuel Sensor Failed - Code 0463

    $610 later, and we're as good as new. Damn shame they put a crappy $2 fuel level sensor in these $50K trucks. I looked at lots of video blogs on this sensor, and I've seen better rheostats on $100 toy remote control cars (before they went all digital). On a $50K truck, I should have a radar...

    Fuel Sensor Failed - Code 0463

    Two weeks and two tanks of fuel later, the fuel sensor started acting up, for the first time outside of SC, GA, FLA, since the initial failure. It wold appear as though the lack of failure in NC, WV, PA on my trip was circumstantial. After about 100 miles of intermittent operation, it went...

    Fuel Sensor Failed - Code 0463

    So I just returned from a 2400 mile round trip from Western PA to southwest FLA, and here's what happened. After the original failure went away, it worked fine driving around for daily commute in Western PA for a couple weeks. No problems on the first 1/2 of the trip (fill-ups in WV and NC)...

    Reverse lights on a toggle?

    Unless you're afraid the tailgater is going push you off the road or shoot you when they eventually do pass, why do you care? If you're driving in the right lane of a multi-lane, or at an adequate speed on a 2-lane, the space you occupy is legally yours. If they rear-end you they'll always be...

    Fuel Sensor Failed - Code 0463

    Since this code is a false High signal (sensor indicating higher tank level than what's possible, based on fuel consumption since the fill-up and flow readings), what's the chance that the float-arm just stuck in the high position, and as the tank level dropped the alarm hit. Then as the fuel...

    Fuel Sensor Failed - Code 0463

    So on my '16 Rebel with 47K miles, I got a Fuel Sensor Fail with fuel gauge pegged on E (tank full). Happened about 100 miles after a fill-up (couple days), while out doing errands. Would work for a few minutes then fail again. This continued for several stops (20 miles or more) until I got to...

    MDS

    Love my MDS. Lots of highway miles on my daily commute and it performs flawlessly.

    Air Suspension owners get in here...

    I'm way out of warranty. I had it at the dealer for some rodent damage repair to engine wiring (while it was still under warranty), and mentioned the air suspension issues to the service manager. Was told that they're all this way and there's nothing can be done to make them faster or to move...

    Dial shifter got me

    Dial shifters belong in golf carts and hippy hybrid cars.....not truck.

    Air Suspension owners get in here...

    Need another option in the Poll. "Trouble from Day 1, but just live with it". Mine has always been slow (30 seconds for full travel). Will not move when parked on any uneven surface. Seems that if one of the corners is in a different position than the others (sensor feedback), the system...

    Inaccurate Fuel Range Level?

    This calculation is iffy at best, even when the truck is brand new. Pretty much a back-of-the napkin estimate.

    Rebel Brush Guard

    Recruit vs Rebel

    Who's Rebel is this. I've been looking for a bolt-on brush guard for my '16. Did this one have to have slots cut in the silver brush plate? Haven't found one that doesn't require cutting holes in the plate. So far I've deflected a few small deer with my solid steel bumpers, but I'd like...

    Rotary shifter!!!

    Has anybody come up with a plug-and-play drop-in console shifter to get rid of the knob?

    Improving visual appeal: Ideas? show and tell...

    I like a red truck, but that's alot of red going on there. Black fener flares might break it up some. Consider a blacked out grille or, since you want a winch, an HD steel (black) bumper. Maybe some black graphics on the hood and sides.

    Key fob Downgrade?

    A hard metal key would be an Upgrade, not a downgrade.

    Smell of burning rubber: 2019 1500 RAM

    I get the smell of burning rubber when I'm at a stop sign and put the accelerator pedal all the way to the floor. Not sure how the accelerator may be linked to the stinky fan shroud. The smell seems to come from the rear of the truck.

    Does this look good or tacky?

    Oh yes. A badging debate. You're going to get two schools of thought here. Those who are righteous and judgmental and see upbadging as some sort of assault on decency, and you'll be called a poser, fake, phony and lots of other names. And then there are those who say that it's your truck...

    Sorry but another Cruise Control ?

    Digital (1 MPH setpoint changes) are pretty standard on current vehicles, but on older ones, the change in setpoint was often a function of how long you hold the button down OR simply a snapshot of the actual speed once it's decelerated or accelerated slightly based on which button you pushed...

    Best Tonneau for Rambox

    I have a '16 Rebel with the Rambox bed. I investigated them all, and know three different guys at church who have three different types (factory hard, aftermarket hard tri-fold, and after market soft). And they have two things in common, they leak and the're easy to break into. So if you're...

    Alpine stereo upgrade???

    I have the Alpine in my '16 Rebel and absolutely LOVE it. Now I play much more Megadeth, Ted Nugent and AC/DC, than I do David Crowder and Third Day, and the "boomy" review you saw a few posts back suits my musical tastes perfectly. I simultaneously owned this system, the Boston Acoustics...

    Rambox thoughts?

    Let's be honest. Ramboxes are nothing more than bed mounted man-purses. For the same reason some women carry a hand-bag large enough for a small child to fit in, men who want to have a place to keep "stuff a guy might need" love the Rambox. In mine, I keep: Tools, hitches, bungie cords...
