    Rebel 2" Level Mock-Up

    Hi everyone, Was toying with the idea of adding a 2" Bilstein 5100 level to my stock '22 Rebel, but wanted to see what it would actually look like with stock wheels/tires, so used a floor jack to lift the front of the truck exactly 1.8" (which is what I read Bilstein 5100s will give you at...

    Moron contractor hit my truck with a skid loader (video)

    Could've been a lot worse if it had been the Macan parked where the truck was standing :sick: Never thought I'd need to use the skid plate on the Rebel in my own driveway :LOL: I got to talk to the moron who was driving the skid steer today, and he was like oh I'm so sorry (yeah sorry you got...

    Moron contractor hit my truck with a skid loader (video)

    Just got a dealer quote, it will be about CAD$1300 (about $1000 US) to fix everything, their boss is supposed to come by to settle up. Of course they still have to fix my driveway, the a$$holes

    Moron contractor hit my truck with a skid loader (video)

    I wouldn't bet on him being a licensed operator, just some bum they found on the street, judging by his behavior. For now I just need them to pay to fix the truck and fix my driveway

    Moron contractor hit my truck with a skid loader (video)

    Oh they were horsing around alright. In the next videos it took 3 of these a-holes plus a mini-backhoe to extract the loader from under my truck. I gotta give it to the strength of the bumper and the skidplate on these Rebels, it emerged practically unscathed. If this was my old Ram Sport with...

    Moron contractor hit my truck with a skid loader (video)

    Thank god for security cameras. A landscape contractor working across the street managed to "ram " (pun intended) his skid loader into the skid plate of my brand new Rebel, see attached video. After that, him and his 4 other pals covered it up and never bothered to tell me or the neighbor who...

    Active Noise Cancelling question

    Thanks for the replies - I think the ANC works a little too well, that I can barely hear the V8 rumble out of the Flowmaster with windows up. I am considering purchasing a bypass harness to see if makes it better, the reason I was wondering about ANC is that the exact same exhaust in my 2020...

    Active Noise Cancelling question

    Hi everyone, Just upgraded my 2020 1500 Sport to a 2022 Rebel and installed a new Flowmaster Super 10 cat-back exhaust identical to the one in the old truck. From the outside the new truck sounds every bit as mean as the old one, from the inside however it is extremely muffled, to the point...

    Bought a '22 Rebel

    Just traded in my 2020 RAM 1500 Sport with 40,000km for a brand new 2022 RAM Rebel, also in Flame Red, true to my nickname ;). Only had it for a few hours, but absolutely loving it so far, UConnect 5 is a nice upgrade, and the truck just looks and feels so much more badass :cool:

    Rear window surround crack.

    My turn to deal with the dreaded cracked window frame - just noticed it a few days ago on the left hand side above the sliding window pillar. The window was already resealed last Fall as it was leaking around the perimeter (but no cracks at the time) and was dry since. Looked at it yesterday...
