My Rebel EcoD gets about 25mpg combined, about 28mpg freeway. 2" level Bilstein lift, otherwise stock. Fairly close to your numbers.

Had HPFP recall done couple weeks ago. Asked service mgr specifically about fuel filter interval. He said every other oil change is fine, 20k by the book. No paperwork from dealer to contrary. In my case I change oil/filter at 5K intervals, so fuel filter would be at 10K intervals for me...

Definitely. The Rubicon drove fine, nimble, with decent acceleration. I'm about a mile from the dealer, noticed the illuminated parking brake light. Conditioned by the Rebel, I'm looking all over the dash. Where is the damn release? Pull over, look around the dash again. Yea, I'm an...

Update. Ready Wed afternoon. Couldn't pick up until Thurs, battling latest covid version. Service guy said they've only had a couple where entire fuel system needed to be replaced. Asked him specifically about fuel filter maintenance interval. He said do it every other oil change as before...

My 2021 Rebel went in today for the recall HPFP appointment. Color me a bit nervous as the truck has been perfect for 3yrs. They said should be ready tomorrow and gave me a loaner, 1yr old Wrangler.

I change my oil/oil filter at 5K intervals, with new fuel filter every other oil change, nominally 10K. Would this maintenance schedule satisfy the new requirement?

Yea, been around long enough to have both blackwall and white letters myself. Don't much like the huge white letters, but the MICHELIN size is about right for me. Similar to the huge black RAM on the red tailgate, had to do something to "blend" it.

Week before last, did a tire change from the OE Goodyear Wranglers to Michelin Defender LTX M/S2. Same size LT275-70R18, E load. The Wranglers were terrible in wet conditions. Have a couple 20-25deg incline hills up to my home, asphalt road. If those inclines were wet, the wranglers would...

Borrowed some ideas from Modification subforum and put together a charging phone holder. Don't know about you guys, but positioning the phone on the RAM built in charger is a PITA especially at night. Made baseplate from some 1/2" aluminum. Purchased remainder of setup from Tackform. Really...

Combo DIY baseplate with Tackform hardware.

Likewise, used Silent Bob's guide to order my 21 Rebel from Philip Olsen, Auburn Wa CDJR. Got nearly 20% off. Unfortunately Olsen left the dealership shortly after my order, but the dealership treated me right. Flew up from SOCAL and drove home. Auburn CDJR pretty much ended the internet...

Not a big fan of the black tailgate letters, the chrome letters are hideous. I originally tried a red overlay on the letters but they clashed a bit with the flame red. Tried these red outlines and like them much better.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I'll defend the Rebel red accent interior/dash, one of the reasons I ordered a Rebel. Breaks up the blah of a standard, monotone interior. Of course, there are many who like the standard interior I'm certain. Each to his own. Mine with a carbon fiber...

Contacted two dealers last week. One said they'd put me on a "2-3 month waiting list". The other said they'd have to "order the parts" and will contact me when the parts arrive. In neither case am I holding my breath.

I've used your tube vids as reference for several mods to my 21 Rebel - thx! So I must ask, after all your mods why search for a new truck?

My oil change intervals have always been 5K. Served me well through modern trucks and older mopars as well. Given the emphasis on fuel quality in the EDs, decided to change the fuel filter at every other oil change, 10K intervals, which I guess is now the new HPFP spec. Just finished 2nd fuel...

I guess the question remains, does this 012 013 replacement remedy the round cups design?

Went through this about a year ago, ended up paying about 400. There are several ebay folks in China that sell the carbon fiber wheels. I believe Zen, and everyone else gets their wheels from the same Chinese factory. The China guys sell at about 1/2 price of the US sellers, same product...

Yup. Last truck was 2014 Tundra. Went 7yrs on OE battery, guess I was spoiled.

Definitely vinyl overlays, pretty common as noted. Did them on my Rebel, but the vinyl red was a different red hue and, IMO, clashed a bit with the Flame red. Replaced them with carbon/red outline vinyls. Like the look much better.
