I'm still mulling over what my next truck will be, but the 5th Gen Rebel is in consideration. I've owned my current truck for 10 years and will likely keep the next at least as long. Options to avoid?
Seems like:
Sunroof (eventually will rattle and/or leak)
Is the 5th gen air suspension any more reliable than previous versions? Reading the manual online, it looks like it only gives you 1" of lift with trucks with the offroad package vs 2" on others?
Has eTorque been problematic long term? I'd spec one without eTorque for sure, but I'm mulling the G/T if I go the Rebel route and apparently you can't get the 'normal' hemi in the G/T. I'm assuming eTorque adds a lot of complexity and likely prohibits forced induction down the road. I'm pretty unlikely to go to FI for years or ever, TBH, but I'd like to keep my options open.
I'm not getting the 12" screen. Way too much $ for something I care nothing about.
It sucks the Big Horn Back Country can't be optioned with the 360 camera. That makes the Big Horn look pretty decent.
