2015 Dodge Ram Rebel

[Slash]

Potential Raptor fighter? V6 and 5.7L powered only, 2WD standard with 4WD an option, 33" tires, all the suspension upgrades etc.

And YES. Very happy about the "RAM" on the tailgate, similar to Fords doing with the new Raptor. Now if all models could get gate letters again...

This truck looks like it was made for me, by that I mean it appears to also have a cleft lip.

Ram officials figure they've already got the hunt/fish/camp crowd all sewn up with the 1500 Outdoorsman, so the Rebel's imposing snout strikes out in a different direction in search of extreme-sports types – namely customers with dirt bikes, side-by-sides, jet-skis and other powersports toys. If that has you envisioning the Rebel as a rival to the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, think again – "It's not an extreme, desert-racer off-road type product," says Ram boss Bob Hegbloom. If you're seeking an analog from another automaker, look to the Toyota Tundra TRD Pro and we think you'll be in the ballpark.

What is the blue supposed to represent?

Ram tough

Looks alright, but if I can't have a Ram with a Cummins it'll have to have the EcoDiesel. Shame you can't get a diesel or manual with this truck.

Im Glad someone Posted that this ISNT a Raptor Fighter, Its a TRD Pro, Fx4 F150, and ZL1 Competitor.

When the Raptor came out, it was V6 Standard, now you can get the 6.2. Wait a Model Year, either the 6.4 or Ecodiesel would make it to production.

Does it have an optional confederate battle flag to go with that name?

Define Rebel (as a Noun) please.

Define Rebel (as a Noun) please.

Only after you explain why you're taking the internet so seriously.

The lettering on the back would look so much better in the same colour as the bodywork, as in traditional truck tailgate lettering. It looks awkward in a contrasting colour.

Just curious to know his (and everyone's) definition because the name has nothing to do with Race.

Race has nothing to do with it.

A real rebel would put F I A T on the tailgate.

Can we please keep at least one thread on track here? If you all want to discuss the meaning of the word "rebel" please take it to PM, I really don't care to read about it on a thread about a truck. Thanks.

Magnificent I love it!

I could do with a lot less plastic on the front....

Take out the inner plastic wave around the RAM logo, and maybe push the silver skid plate back a little bit and it would have my vote.

Something like this as far as the bumper... but keep the fog lights.

What's up with those seats? They're absolutely awful. I mean... tire treads?

 

[CodeRedR51]

Wrong. Raptor started with the 5.4L V8, then added the 6.2L V8 as an option, and then the 5.4L was dropped altogether making the 6.2L the only engine available.

Not acceptable from the Factory (Crash Safety Standards Remember). The Ram Runner isnt Factory. its Mopar Aftermarket Part.

Well, thats one interesting way to describe it

See, I knew this would happen...

I only meant to push the bumper back a little or find a way to trim down the "hello, I'm here" factor of it. They basically turned it into a GM product where the entire front is flat and the grille isn't recessed anymore on the bottom...
I never meant to take off the entire bumper, but to push it back.

Also needs the optional Dixie horn to complete the package.

New parts? I don't know the only one that I can really figure out is the in and out on the valve (last picture).

As for the truck I'm glad to see Toyota is doing decent stu...Oh did I say Toyota cause that's what it looks like Dodge used for inspiration. Front isn't bad but the stupid tailgate print is, well I have no words to express how dumb that is.

A real rebel would put F I A T on the tailgate.

Challenge accepted

I think I'm going to love this!

 

[Omnis]

This looks like utter crap.

 

[Slash]

These designs are so love it or hate it.

 

[Joel]

It looks like a generic truck from a GTA game or something.

 

[HELLAFLUSH240SX]

The tailgate lettering looks tacky as all get out.
