That's a Chevy Medium Duty - 4500 or 5500. Nothing like the 3500 platform. Solid front axle instead of torsion bar IFS.

Functionally it looks like a rear e-locker, better OE tires, and a factory winch option.

Well, Motor Trend has posted a first drive article for the Rebel HD: 2023 Ram 2500 HD Rebel First Test: Sometimes Less Really Is More (motortrend.com) . This article states that the Rebel HD DOES NOT have the Power Wagon's 2" lift nor Articulink, contradicting the original announcement.

I have a couple down sleeping bags that I use too. My favorite, and most used, is my Kelty Galactic 30. It's an economical rectangular bag with 600 FP DriDown, though new versions advertise 550 FP duck down and don't mention DriDown. Rectangular down bags weren't the easiest to find when I...

The truck in the TFL video must've been a diesel. I'm pretty sure only the Hemi trucks with the 8 speed have the dash mounted dial shifter.

It would not shock me, when Ram finally releases more detailed information about specs and features, that the Hemi trucks have Articulink and the Cummins trucks do not. The Ram site gives absolutely no written indication that Articulink is a feature on the Rebel, but I would think that if the...

The Rebel has articulink. According to both Car and Driver and Motortrend, the Rebel 2500 shares the Power Wagon suspension, including shocks, springs, articulink, and ride height. The Rebel loses the sway bar disconnects and front locker. What the Rebel has that the Power Wagon simply cannot...

I checked the Ram trucks website, and it lists the maximum payload for the Cummins as 1,970 lbs & max towing for the Cummins is 14,920 lbs. According to the website, the 6.4 max payload is 3,140 & max towing for the 6.4 Hemi is 16,870. You give up nearly 1,200 lbs of payload when you opt for...

No winch with the Cummins due to interference with the charge air cooler. Guess they didn't want to re-engineer the winch, mount, and/or charge air cooler at this point in the product lifecycle.

It looks like Ram finally decided to offer a mid-tier off road package on the HD trucks. The new Ram 2500 Rebel apparently uses a substantial amount of the Power Wagon's suspension, but with 18" or 20" wheels and no front locker or electronic sway bar disconnect. The good news is, the Cummins...

My run-of-the-mill 5.0 has a payload above 1900 lbs. The 2.7 payload package brings some decent hardware to the 2.7 trucks, like the 9.75" rear axle and a heavier frame, but it just brings the GVWR and payload to parity with standard 5.0 and 3.5TT trucks.

That's basically a special order truck with little cost benefit over a comparably capable 3.5 ecoboost. Most 2.7s on lots are high value trucks that take advantage of the 2.7s low option price and strong performance to sell trucks at a lower price.

Any reason you're not considering a Frontier PRO-4X?

Here's the link to Bilstein's US product lookup tool: Bilstein Online Catalog (bilsteinus.com)

IMO if you're just looking to replace tired stock shocks with something that's a reasonable upgrade from OE, and OE was sufficient for your use, Bilstein is the logical choice. I've got a set of Bilstein 5100s on my F150, and they've been good so far. I do wish I had stepped up to the...

Yeah, but almost no one remembers that Tremor, and it's not the direction Ford took the current package.

Where is anyone finding 265/75r17 tires? I'd go for the universal 265/70r17 myself, since the 285/70r17 will have the same fuel economy drawbacks as your current 285/75r16s.

Pretty sure you'd have to use 2 different payment entities, like PayPal & Venmo, in order to stay under the $600 cap.

Warn lists P/N 107525 as fitting the 2019-2022 Sierra 1500 when I look under the fitment tab on their site. I don't know if it actually works, but the main page for the Gen 3 Trans4mer shows a Sierra 1500 with a full brush guard and winch...

I use a 56 qt Plano Sportsman's Trunk for cooking stuff and a Coleman bag for my stove. It was hard to beat $15.98 at Home Depot for the tote. It holds my Stanley pots and pans that nest together with their utensils, plus plates, bowls, cups, paper towels, etc. I consolidated everything so...
