New truck - questions and upgrades!

[jives]

Finally picked up my 2022 Rebel GT, Night edition, Level 2. Pics attached. I will keep using this thread as I do various upgrades/mods but to start a couple questions

1. Should my spare match the wheels that are on the truck? Mine does not (pic of spare included)

2. What are the loops behind the rear seat headrests? There are 3 pulling them does nothing, they don't even seem to move (pic included)

3. Bed step hits the exhaust resonator slightly if I let it fly back. So far fixed by putting a little more rubber on the bump stop. Anyone else have this? I found a thread but most of the gripes were from older trucks.

Love the truck so far and could not be happier with the GT package exhaust note!

Pretty sure those loops are to strap in a car seat. Not positive, since I don't have my truck yet, but pretty sure they're required to have a support on the back of seats for that rear anchor and with trucks they need loops, otherwise you wouldn't be able to get an anchor to the back of the seat

Spare doesn't match ,atleast not on the rebel

Loops are for car seats

I don't have a bed step so I can't speak to hitting the resignator

The tire I'd be fine not matching. The wheel sorta annoys, but not enough to buy one I guess

First "mod" was disabling the seatbelt chime. I live less than a mile from our lake and can't have that torturing me every time I go back and forth from there... Next up is some side steps, gotta pick out and order.

Sticker was $73,980 no sunroof or air suspension intentionally which saved some money I guess. I got dealer to FWP price which for northern NJ I felt pretty good about.

Yeah for the rebel it's both rim and tire. Don't believe the size even matches. It's on the list of things to get.

Looking at yours the rim looks nicer than what they gave me. I just got a standard steelie if I remember correctly

you are correct.

Spare tire for the Rebel trim is a Falken Wildpeak A/T; I do not know why the spare is a different brand than the Goodyear tires on the ground.

Looks gorgeous. I basically got yours with a sun roof, but same opting to skip air suspension. $75,645 MSRP but it ended up being -2% FWP… OTD $77k

Edit- I opted for the diesel motor too, and passing the station it was 6.69/gal so yeah… 33 gal tank is going to be a raping without the courtesy of dinner first. Let’s go Brandon!

Ordered sidesteps, went with the Havoc HS3 will post pics once I get them in and installed. Hopefully by this weekend.

Also got a B&W stow & go installed.

Finally… and most importantly I received my foam insert for the passenger door so that is installed and set

Good luck with your Rebel. I love the truck. Only problem is the mods never seem to end. Got mine going in Monday for my lift kit.

Nice looking truck! How much lift are you going with?

6” Bds with strut spacer. I’ll go to coil overs once I get a little wear on the factory struts. Went with fox shock upgrade in rear and Bds upper control arms. Putting on 20x10 Rebel 6’s from fuel. Negative 18 offset. Should have a slightly aggressive stance. Going I’m Monday. Not sure when I’ll get her back. When I do I’ll post some new pics. Going with 35x12.5r20 tires.
