Picked mine up a couple weeks ago, I see they are starting to pop up here and there.
I went from a 2013 Big Horn quad to a Rebel Crew. Went in looking for a Crew with the 6'4" bed or a 2500 and saw the Rebel. Liking it so far, air ride is really nice.
Just wondering if there are any other owners on this board.

I don't have a rebel. I have seen a few now in red and a grey. I personally really like all that the rebel is. Congrats on your new truck! These new Rams are phenomenal!

There was a red Rebel trying to catch me on the Beltway last week in traffic. He finally gave up, but it was the first one I have seen besides pics.

Just traded my 14 Laramie for a 15 Red Rebel and love it...

Picked it up Wednesday, and put the 24inch maganaflow on it today, gave it a little more "attitude" to go with it's looks...

It's good to see guys liking and buying these trucks. There were a lot of threads with those who disliked and/or hated them. If I was in the market for a truck I would likely go for a Rebel. Keep the pictures and updates coming.

I knew it'd be a matter of time before people started warming up to them.

They're not horrible looking lol just different.

^^ this! Its the only downside of the truck. Yes it rides great and has great payload but those air shocks are expensive to replace. I wish they just threw in some Bilsteins..

Also.. for anyone wondering the "RAM" crazyness on the tailgate is just badging, I originally thought they embossed the tailgate. I was talking to my dealer about them and he said "yea, we got one out back. go take a look" I ran out there like a kid on Christmas and the first thing I did was looked to see if it could be removed - and it can!

Ford and Chevy guys are seeing a lot more of the "3rd brand" lately. RAMS are selling like crazy! Nice looking trucks guys.

dont hate me for this but

imo

the black two tone, makes it look like a fleet vehicle - you know what im talking about, the cheap base model look with no fog lights, no power door locks no power windows - is that still possible now??

They have Bilstenis as well on them. Get the mopar warranty thrown in and your covered. Air suspensions are not that much of an issue, not in this day and age.

Anyone notice a rougher ride with the Rebel? I am coming from a coil spring 14 Big Horn and to me the Rebel seems like it rides much stiffer. Although it does handle better IMO

A little, but I would think that's the Bilsteins...

After all, it's supposed to be an "off road" truck... I think it rides great, and this is from me coming off of a 14 Air ride Laramie...

Had mine for about a month and love it! Especially hauling my boat around. My 2014 express didn't like it one bit so I traded her in.
