Does the HEMI 5.7L has similar features like the GM 5.3L, with that cylinder deactivation ?

Yup.

And all the fun and games that goes with the lifters wiping out the cam. Not horrible to fix, similar to a old school cam swap.

I have a 2019 Ram Rebel. Love the truck. Just took it wheeling for the first time last week in Colorado and it did great in varying terrain even with my balding factory Duratracs. I just put Toyo Open Country AT3’s on it. Can’t wait to try them out.
Be prepared for water leaks on the 5th gen. Rear sliding glass window frame cracks and leaks in the cab. The 3rd brake light and the shark fin have been known to leak as well. I ran some sealant in the seam joining roof to cab and haven’t had any more leaks.
Others have mentioned exhaust manifold cracks and hemi lifter ticks. I haven’ t had problems with those (yet!)

 

[D45]

Is the lifter tick because of too thin of oil, as mentioned above?

My 5.3L has the cylinder deactivation, but knock on wood, it's been fine for 107,000 miles.

My silverados third brake light lense also leaked and some clear silicon fixed it

My 5.7 2011 PW does NOT have the MDS system fortunately. And no lifter tick fortunately enough.

Do all Rebel 1500 packaged truck have 3.92 gears?

Seems like all other Ram 1500 trucks have 3.21 gears?

We have a Ram 1500 5.7L 4WD at work, it's leveled on 33s.....

With 75,000 miles on it, it moves! Seems alot more powerful than my Silverado

However, the mpg on the dash shows 10.1 mpg with the Ram 5.7L

I'm going to carfax the vin to see the axle ratio

My silverado is showing 15.8 mpg

Thats about what I have on for mileage on mine, on a good day. Similar setup. Hemi's are a thirsty engine, but lots of fun. till they are n't

10-11 mpg is crazy low for this truck

While my silverado may seem to have less power, the 15-16 ish mpg works

The Power Wagon is also on the 2500 Ram platform. The 1500’s with the 5.7L have MDS, but not the HD lineup.

Correct!
