My 2020 rebel went past 100k miles, was running good, but getting long in the tooth. Had the shift to p issue and had hard shifting.. got 35k in trade for it and picked up a 25 rebel hydro blue..

The engine is smooth, in sport mode throws you back in hit seat when the turbos kick in and rides so smooth, got the air suspension on it. At 260 miles not much to gage yet but I am loving it.. rebel 1 package, air suspension, 33 gal tank.. bed liner is going on Friday from line-x and putting on power side steps..

Nice! Future plans? Did you keep any mods from your previous Rebel?

Congrats. It's always feels great when you upgrade to a new truck.
My turn will come sometime this year with my order.
 
Congrats and nice truck! Feel free to post up some more pics and share that lovely blue (I had a Blue Flame F150 years ago).

Curious to hear your thoughts on the new motor, once you get some miles on it...
 
So I love the new inline6, feels very smooth and strong.. I do plan on upgrading at some point when items come out. Considering the biggest difference between the SO and the HO is tune and 6 more boost, it will be very easy to upgrade.

I love the air suspension, will always add that option going forward..

I will post more pics soon, the hyrdo blus is a great color
 
Congrats! I love the blue w/ two-tone and Rebel decals. I had no idea these were even out yet.

Don’t wanna burst your bubble but there are 72 unique parts the HO has upgraded that the SO doesn’t have, it’s not just tuned differently they’re almost completely different engines. There are a couple YouTube videos out there that talk about it one I particularly liked was by a dodge tech discussing the differences between the two. Not saying the SO can’t be tuned to blow the HO out of the water because it most likely could.

Looks nice. They are still really nice trucks. I'll just never buy one ever again. I don't buy trucks unless they have a V8. Next one for me might be an F150 with the Roush blower upgrade (dealer install) for 800hp and still have factory warranty.
 
I needed to add side steps for the in-laws to get in and out.. I tried just lowering it all the way down with the air suspension.. just not low enough.. so got some ram side steps today

I really like the new wheels 😍
Those are great looking factory wheels. I saw a new Laramie and hated those rims. Nice to see there is a better option.

Wondering if those are only available on the Rebel or if they’re part of any Night Edition Package?

Edit:Just checked and it appears they’re a Rebel exclusive wheel but they do appear very similar to the standard TRX non-bead lock wheels.

Nice truck. I am kind of shocked that they gave you 35k for your trade. I'm looking at the used market and a 2020 with 100k+ would be $28k at retail with mid options. There's a CPO 2020 quad cab with few options and 60k miles for $30k
They must really be looking to move new inventory, or your market is WAY hotter for pre owned. Either way, good for you!
 
Nice truck question how is it at highway speeds?? Smooth ride? Tire noise? Does it have the reclining rear seats ? Thx

i know what you mean..i plan on getting the"GMC V8"
 
That is sick, I just picked up my first Rebel last week but went with a used 2020 with the EcoDiesel package.
 
It looks great OP! The bed decal is a little big though I would would keep REBEL and remove the outside tail feathers.

I just got my '25 Hurricane Rebel 2 weeks ago and highway speeds feel great and it is a smooth ride. The wind noise does not exist and the tire noise is what you'd expect from a more aggressive treaded tire. Nothing bad by any stretch. So far, this Hurricane is amazing and don't miss the 5.7 hemi in the least.
 
Just past 4k on miles.. mpg is not what they say it is, but I didn't buy it for that reason only. Love the air suspension and the 33 gal tank. On the highway this thing is very responsive and smooth. City it's quiet outside the tread on the aggressive tires.

So far no issues on the engine, or the truck itself. I love the map display on the speedo. The different modes are really nice, sport, off-road, snow, and tow..
