They specifically mention Ford and GMC as having bad glare, and that the Ram limiteds were...
Also no reclining rear seats, from my understanding.
And yes on the leather. I believe the Rebel is vinyl/cloth seats, and probably a little more durable materials on the door panels, console, dash etc so less real leather.
Really wish they would give us the Laramie seat options (black...

I would question the strength of the rear bumper, considering how much it got bent compared to practically no damage to the police car. The exhaust did appear to take the brunt of it.
Sorry for how all this went. Glad it work out it the end.
So you got to keep the truck? Seeing as how you hate it so much and don't trust it, I'll take it off your hands for you.
My dad only buys 8' bed trucks for the farm. Thinks its a must have. I don't agree.
I was really wanting to get a 6'4" bed, and was really concerned that a 5'7" bed with ramboxes would be too short after owning my 3rd gen (6'3" i think?)
Anyway, i can say after getting the 5'7" bed that it...
Best new features from my wife's perspective: panoramic sunroof and safety features
Best new features from my perspective: flat rear floor, more crew cab space, 360 camera
Best class exclusive features: continuation of Rambox option, etorque
All spoken in future tense, since i don't have a...

Judges comments (video)...
Seems like the Toyota was picked just because it surprised him more, and road softer than the Rebel at the full height air setting.
Difficult to argue that the vehicle with higher clearances, better skid plate protection, better tires, and a selectable locker isn't a better off road vehicle...
Aaaand i cant believe i didn't see "Hellephant" coming. I in no way expected this to be a supercharged 426. Great job FCA keeping it under wraps, and a fitting way to bring the elephant back.
Ok so correct me if I'm wrong. This block was reportedly designed with street use in mind. Some of the other components, are shared with the Hellcat and demon (save the forged or specially components required to sustain 1000hp). Either the hellcat or demon share a block with i think the NA SRT...
I wish that were true, but 16-17-18 is where the bell curve on the 5.7 etorque is going to land.
2014-2018 Ram 5.7 averages about 15.5 real world hand calculated (mine is currently 14.8). IF etorque is a 10% improvement, that's 17. But not everyone will get 17. Depending on location, driving...
If $340 over an entire year is that big of a deal to you, go back to the 2.7 ecoboost or option the 3.6 pentastar. Both have less horsepower, less tow capacity, and sound like lawn mowers. They also typically have lower resale value then their higher power, more premium engine siblings.
If...
Who says they aren't working on those things?
This looks like a nice package. It doesn't add anything to the parts bin that isn't already there. Just a slightly different combination of them.
Its a "powerstroke" with an emphasis on the quotation marks IMO. Mildly updated version of what they've already been offering in Land Rover. The lion i think it was called? They branded it powerstroke to help sell it and make a connection with its big brother in the HDs.
And yes, for this...
