    I drove 40 miles today in the city and averaged 17.8 mpg

    Under the very slightest acceleration my rebel has no problem reading 9 mpg, on dead straight flat roads @ 55-60 it hits 15 mpg, @ 65-70 16mpg. this thing is 5mpg less than my 15 laramie 5.7.

    Rear wheelhouse liners: protective, or just for looks?

    go down to your local dealer and take a peek behind the rear wheel of a truck that doesnt have them and see how flimsy the sheet metal is under there , not to mention theres pinch welds right in there as well... definitely worth it, aftermarket plastic liners are about 1/2 the price as factory.

    I think there is an issue with my truck - Gas Mileage

I put the instant mpg and the avg in the lower left and right hand corner of the gauge cluster... @ 60 mph on dead flat rd its about 15-16 mph at 70-72 ish, its actually better, at 17... 55 mph on dead flat seems to lug and make the gas mileage even worse, it...

    Surround View Camera system - worth getting ?

    just picked up my 2022 rebel on friday,,, configured pretty much as you describe, has ASG and I really like it a lot, didnt't think it would be as impressive as it is. definitely worth it for safety and peace of mind. i tow different trailers and its great so far.

I am very picky about the " clean " corners that dont ride up and...
