My Bighorn does, and the Rebels I have been in do, so I'm going to say yes

The Rebels I’ve seen have a good down arm rest in the back, but it’s not the same as your picture.

It has a small section that flips down like this

I’m not sure if the different back seats are from different years, or a difference in the reclining vs non-reclining versions?

The picture he posted is the front bench seat folded down not the rear seat

The Limited for sure you can fold the middle rear to an arm rest with cup holders. The Rebel and Laramie I am not sure.

That's the 20% rear fold down center console.

According to the 23 buyers guide the rebel only has the regular flip down arm rest with 2 cup holders. You have to get the GT package to get the 20% fold down console.

I think the picture he posted is a Limited rear seat. It has a fancier fold down than Laramie and lower trims.

My 2021 Laramie has that same back seat, this truck is the first place I'd seen it though.

Could it be part of the rear reclining seat versus the fixed rear seat?

I found out yesterday that there is a release behind the other two seat sections to allow them to fold forward too.

My laramie has the larger rear armrest and reclining. In 2020 it was only offered with the front console on laramie. Front jumps seat trucks didn't normally have it.

I totaled my 20 Laramie a year and a half ago, but I don't remember mine having that lid. Maybe different seat material has different lid.

Unfortunately, though, the seats don’t really fold down flat. They only go about halfway comfortably. You can mash on them and make them get closer to flat, but it’s kinda pointless.
