    Off road suspension or air suspension

    No need to apologize at all. I strongly believe we would remiss in not having these discussions so that the next person that wants to purchase one of these, makes an informed decision. Although having this discussion definitely reminds me that I need to purchase the extended warranty. :)...

    Off road suspension or air suspension

    It is definitely quicker, although I didn't notice much of sound difference.

    Off road suspension or air suspension

    I live in western Quebec (Gatineau area), and we have quite a few more days colder than -30 Celcius. I have heard the numerous issues some owners experienced, and I can only provide my experiences with it. The real issue for me was the Ecodiesel (a total piece of $h%!), they replaced the first...

    Standard Fuel Tank Size for Rebel

    Yep, it clicked after I posted my response (that's why I deleted it). :)

    Standard Fuel Tank Size for Rebel

    I upgraded my Rebel to the 33 option, and definitely appreciate the extended range when towing.

    3.21. vs 3.92 gear

    Just my 2 cents :For the extra 3,100 lbs towing capacity, for me, I'll gladly give up 1 mpg. I have the 3.92 in my Rebel, and only have about 1200 miles on it. I get a solid 18 MPG with ~90% city driving.

    No ambient lights? No problem, 2 doors down 2 to go

    I still can't believe that they removed the ambient lighting in the Rebel trim - it's completely ridiculous. Having known this, I would have purchased our Canadian sport model ( or Laramie sport trim). Although I really don't like 20" + rims.

    Top Glove Box Light Stays On

    Very nice lighting. I wish the Rebel would have had the ambient lighting - I wasn't aware it didn't, as I would have likely purchased the sport which I believe has all the amenities.

    Tow mirrors - are you kidding me? I'm so pissed...

    Really worse visibility how? Also the separated convex mirrors is exactly why I love them so much...

    Off road suspension or air suspension

    I had mine 4 years without issues, and they must of changed something because the ride is quite a bit more stiffer than my 2015. I can't prove that they changed anything for air (appart from different part numbers), but it's definitely faster at up/down and a bit stiffer.

    Off road suspension or air suspension

    I had the 2015 Outdoorsman Ecodiesel with air suspension, and never had any issues with it here in Quebec. Even at -40 Celsius I never encountered an issue, and it's always parked outside (never in the garage). That said, I have heard numerous complaints from other people having issues at that...

    Tow mirrors - are you kidding me? I'm so pissed...

    Having had the tow mirrors on a 2015 RAM, and then 2017 GMC Sierra, I just love these tow mirrors - to me I can't live without them. I guess it depends about how much you tow - but even if your not towing, the extra visibility they provide are simply stellar IMO. Different strokes for different...

    eTorque: 6 Things You Probably Didn't Know

    I've got the Rebel with almost 2000 KM (~ 1200 Miles) and it also has 3.92 and it seems to come on quite a bit. I'm averaging about 18 MPG (90% city), and stays on quite a bit at 100 KMH too, but I've been babying it quite a bit (driving like I've got an egg under my foot). :)

    Does Rebel with air suspension option still have factory 1" lift?

    Does Rebel with air suspension option still have factory 1" lift?

    Same for me Uconnect setting.

    Does Rebel with air suspension option still have factory 1" lift?

    You can take off the "aero" mode in the Uconnect if you wanted to (I don't know why you would not want to have it in aero though at highway speeds). Aero mode kicks in at 102 KM for me. Optionally you can just hit the button to get it out of aero mode at highway speeds. The 1" lift is...

    Does Rebel with air suspension option still have factory 1" lift?

    I can definitely confirm that normal ride height (even at highway speeds if you want) is 1" higher, and 2" up to 40KM per hour.

    Please post your Tire and Loading sticker

    Yep for sure - and it definitely has an impact on your payload.

    Please post your Tire and Loading sticker

    This thread had me thinking about overall abilities of our trucks, and man ohh man, am I ever happy I have the 3.92 - I still can't believe there's a 3,100 lb towing capacity difference - that's definitely the best $50 anyone will spend in my opinion. The Official Towing Chart from RAM...
