I’ve got a 2020 Rebel, the interior is nicer than pretty much any vehicle I’ve been in. I have about 5k miles on it so far so we’ll see how it makes out long term. I have no complaints with it so far, I will say when a nice shiny new trailboss goes by it definitely catches my attention. They are both striking trucks depending on the color.
@@mikepipher3347 If you still have it, how has your experience been with it? I am thinking of moving from a 2012 Tacoma to a 2019 Rebel. Just unsure if I want to move away from the mid-size and the reliability my Tacoma has got me through
@@nathanf1699 I’m getting ready to trade it in towards a super duty, but it’s been my favorite truck I’ve owned. I live super close to work so I’ve only put 25,000 miles on it since December of 2019 but in that time I’ve had no issues. The fuel economy kinda sucks but I think that’s pretty known by everyone.
I drove Chevys for over 20 years. Bought the Rebel. Interior and features did it for me. Got the the Rebel 12, pano roof, leather seats, 19 speaker harmon kardon stereo, ramboxes for the same price as a Trail Boss with cloth seats.
This is why I love to watch these videos, these guys are always honest with the cars, trucks, SUVs they got so we the audience can have a better idea and/or point of view. Admire your work guys!!
I've owned 2 Rams and love them. I currently own a 2019 Ram Rebel, and it gets the job done offroad. In total, I've had Rams over a 7 year period and have yet to have a single issue. Can't say that about other brands I've owned.
I've owned 3 Rams from 96 on up , having a tough time with all the electronics in newer models which brought me here . Trail Boss is to the extreme on analog though , i mean my 2011 which im upgrading from has more tech but HATE rotary shifter of new rams and hate having to go through 3 screens to adjusts heating controls... seems more of a distraction then my Cell phone . Search continues
The current ram really isn't a working truck, it's for people with deep pockets that wants to look tough while having more comforts than even cars have now.
@@nanukofthenorth4095 Heating controls are on the sides of the Screen so very easy to adjust. I don't have to go through ANY SCREENS, so I don't know what you are talking about.
I own a 2019 Silverado LT Trail Boss and I absolutely love it. I have about 27k miles on it now and haven't had a single issue with it. Have done lots of off-roading, towing, and long distance road trips and it's handled all of it in stride.
Yeah I think they’ve gotten better on the newer trucks, for sure. His is just too slow. He can’t even answer phone calls with it because the call is missed before the answer call button actually works. Witnessed it myself a couple times actually. The functions are there, but it’s too slow to function properly. The newer ones don’t have that problem though I think.
If you still have the 19 trail boss, how has it held up over the years now? I'm about to buy a used 2019 trail boss and looking for owner opinions on it
I have a TB with the 6.2 having kids, dogs I need a functional and rugged interior. It’s durable, doesn’t show scratches and is fancy enough for me. My vote is for the Silverado. The fancy interior is coming for ‘22
2020 Trail Boss 6.2L, Standard bed owner here. Was not a fan of Dodge exterior so didn’t test a Ram, but did test the F150 and Tundra. Ultimately, because I am 6’6”, fit and driving comfort were a big deciding factor. As far as interior goes, I like it as simple as possible; as long as it has cold air and CarPlay I’m good.
You should have drove the ram. I drove all three, omg the ram drives so much nicer. I purchased a jeep though 😂 it drive horrible before my modifications.
I’ve always had the best luck with Ram trucks, I take great care of all my vehicles so I have better luck than most but my last Ram 5.7 made it to 657k miles before the head gasket finally gave way, it was an easy fix due to the push rod design, the Ford would be a disaster to fix due to the ovehead cams and the unnecessary amount of valves so the Ram and gm win here. All three trucks are fantastic and you can’t go wrong these days with any of them but I’ll always spend my own money on the rams. I’m a mechanical technician currently working in the aerospace industry on missile systems and I have to say that the Ram trucks are amazingly high quality these days. If you can afford the Ram definitely go for it, at least go and treat drive it if you normally buy Ford or gm, I think you’ll end up buying the Ram. It’s pretty incredible how fantastic all of these truck have become, especially the rams which I can’t stress enough are just so close to perfect.
Had a RAM 2017 didn't like the shifter. Found myself turning it while on the road by accident because I was looking for the volume. Screen to much for me. I like old school knobs and gauges. Oh and shifter. Lol. I do like the look of TB better imo. Corner step a must for me so I went back to Chevy.
Was a Chevy fan for years until I bought my 2020 Ram Rebel. My Rebel if an amazing truck with an amazing interior. The Hemi motor is an amazing performer and the ride is unsurpassed!
@@josephwhiskeybeale no one has actual shifters. Even if the truck looks like it does. It doesn't, everyone has electronic shifters and gm was the first to use them. The I like the dial better after having one.
I picked up my 2020 Ram Rebel 1500 because of watching your reviews and real world tests. Thanks for the hard work and dedication to give consumers like me a somewhat unbiased review and opinion on the meat and potatoes of these products. And to be honest, the only reason I picked a Ram Rebel is because of the 12inch screen. Everything else that was great about it was just icing on the cake.
this i understand...that 6.2 is awesome, not to mention 10 speed transmission! if only we had RAM interior + GM powertrain (also like 2" vs 1" lift) we'd be in truck heaven.
I would take simple and actual truck features over interior...... I've had new 1500s and 2500s.....ram I have now I feel like I could break it pretty easily, my 2021 gmc 1500 would be hard to break, my 2022 2500 silverado I don't think I could break it if I tried....... Just a feeling I have about last 4 trucks in last 4 years
If you own a truck for 5 years....extra technology can be a problem. How long do you keep your phone and other techy stuff before issues? When that 12” display goes out, how much $$$$ to replace and hiw much functionality is lost if the truck isn’t worth the money to replace? One year ownership is not reality for many of us.
I've owned both of these trucks both 2020, i like the Trail Boss better..it actually feels of better quality and more reliable layout. The Rebel was having electrical issues at 8k miles!
I had my girl builded, I waited 10 weeks before picking her up. 2022 Rebel fully loaded top to bottom as my retirement gift with red trimming with black leather interior, and 12" display exterior color is black and white with graphic kit. When I finally picked up and saw her it was love at first sight. I named her Selene from the movie underworld it's a relationship made in heaven or hell LOL. Hopefully we will stay together for years to come.. 🇺🇲❤️
Chevy.....I have a 2019 LTZ and love it, As Tommy says the interior is not as fancy but it works perfectly and I agree. My neighbor has the Ram and I have been in it and drove it, once you get past the fancy interior, the Chevy is a far better truck.
I'm a Mopar guy but I love trucks from all brands. I wish I could somehow drive different ones all the time. Personally I feel Ram has the nicest interiors and innovative storage bins like the ones under the rear floor mats, the double glove boxes, optional Ram Boxes in the box sides etc. Ford has improved their interior for 2021. GM may want to invest in some nicer interior designs and materials too. The Ram back seat in the crew cab is a few inches larger than the Chevy that's why it has a shorter box.
Awesome to see you guys expanding your reviews and informative content to the motorcycle community now! Cheers and rubber side down on the new channel! Great job as usual gents!
Tough choice, I like them both but I got over 400k miles on my last ram and it still runs lol. Transmission just started slipping so I parked it. Now I’m trying to decide what to buy next. Great video, you guys were very informative. I’m probably gonna go with the ram.
True to that!!!! I also have a dodge ram 2005 with around 400k miles . Same transmission and same engine. Knock on wood everything is fine for now . I just recently got my ceramic gray rebel .. and I must say it’s a bad ass truck !!! I also had an old dodge ram Dakota 5.2 v8 with over 450k miles on it. Same engine I had to change the transmission though , but engine was great .
For 55k price range, I can simply choose RAM Rebel but like Andre said the fuel efficiency isn't for everyone and also the air suspension setup on RAM is more comfy for daily pavement driving. Can you guys compare the newer model GMC Yukon AT4, Chevy Tahoe Z71, Sequoia TRD Pro, Land Rover Discovery or LR4, Lexus GX or LX, Ford Explorer, Acura MDX, Audi Q7, Volvo XC70, Hyundai Palisade and Kia Telluride? I think it's a good comparison idea just because some of us more into these type of suv as daily uses i.e. hauling groceries, a 55 gallon empty rain water barrel, some 6ft 2x4 wood or pvc pipes, transport kayak for 2, light off-roading, carry 2 dobermann dogs and most important is real world fuel efficiency. That'd be a good morning breakfast show and before shopping for next vehicle. Thank you 😊 💓
@@m.brandon6544 you are not most people. You need to do better with your replies. After all, it's been 3 months since this conversation ended. You should seek attention elsewhere, offline.
Pulling the trigger on a new 2023 Rebel GT 5.7 Black on black ! Looked at a lot of other options but the Rebel really had the performance and capabilities I was looking for.
As an owner of a 2021 Rebel I’m partial. I did drive a 2021 Chevy Silverado with the 6.2 , prices and options close. The Chevy was slightly quicker , had much more torque. But I chose the Ram. Keep it up guys I enjoy your blogs
Long time Chrysler owner but I decided to go with the trail boss. Love the factory lift but initially I did miss the power of the hemi. Overall both of these trucks are beautiful with their obvious pros and cons. I gave in and bought a Chevy and so far I love it!!
I have a 2019 Custom Trail Boss and I love it. It looks and performs just like the $55k LT Trail Boss, but without all the fancy features or luxury options, but I only paid $37k. For that price, I'll pick my truck all day.
I went with the LT Trail Boss. You couldn't get a Custom with the 6.2 in 2020. With kids and a dog, the leather interior is much better. I needed the console in the middle of the front seats instead of the folding third seat for things I need to keep with me. $51k well equipped before I added several thousand in accessories. I'm also very glad I have the 10-speed.
@@boostedbavarian people that want a better package with higher resale value. Unless it’s a specific option like the Torsen Front diff on a Raptor, options get you zero on trade in value, where as a package level difference bets a large improvement. Short to say a base upper level will save you more money over a fully optioned lower level.
I have owned 3 silverados since 1998....currently have a 2018 z71 and since GM keeps taking options away comparing the 2018 to the 2020.....honestly would have to take a very hard look at Rebel on my next purchase. The interior is hands down winner on Rebel and the infotainment screen, well that might seal the deal
Scott Egan but it is a truck, they should add turbos to theirs rams and stop complaining about the 3 less miles per gallon witch when put on the road isn’t a difference
Go with the Ram. I have a 2019 Ram Big Horn with the Hemi and tow 95% of the time and have 28,000 miles on it in just one year without any failures. Love this truck
I have a 2018 Silverado with 70000 miles no issues. I also have a 2019 RAM with 33000 miles. The RAM has been ok but it's averaging 14 mpg mostly highway. Go with RAM if you want to get a truck which does not match advertised performance.
2019 Custom Trailboss purchased in July of 2019, now with 47k miles on it. Only problem I have had is the radio glitched 2 times and wouldn't turn off. I regularly tow 7000lbs+ and have had no reliability issues.
Thank you Tommy it's nice to know that I'm not the only one who dislikes the Catfish grill on the Rebel. I like that they tuned the catfish down on the T-Rex.
@@chrissnider9555 It was a great truck never had issues with it. I’d say as long as it has the 10 speed transmission and has had good consistent services as needed you should be alright. Mine was a 2020 and so that’s the model year I’d recommend also had 5.3 V8 which was great. Just do the scheduled maintenance as needed and should be pretty great vehicle for you.
Love the video..love the Ram..if fuel mileage is a concern get a diesel..what’s the mileage then..I don’t worry about mileage...I care about power..if I wanted mileage go buy a Prius...lol
Why not get both?? My ideal transportation situation would be a 3500 Ram diesel 4x4 with a leveling kit at 35” BFG all terrains with high clearance steel bumpers and air lockers front and rear and a c6 z06 corvette with tons of mods and a Toyota Corolla for everyday driving
Biggest standout for me is the interior. Both trucks do most things well. Tow haul etc. but man GM and their short comings on their interiors. It’s not bad , it’s just bland.
I'd take a non e-torque Rebel over the Trail Boss for various reasons: 33 inch tire, Hemi with port injection, not direct injection which ends up in a sooty mess, ZF transmission vs 10 speed (jury still out there), interior quality, unloaded ride quality with the coils. And a big one for me since I live in a salt belt, paint on the frame for the Ram vs wax only on the GM. Hard to believe GM still does that.
The Ram all day everyday, like Tommy says welcome to the 90's and fisher price plastics. I think my 2015 Ram is on par with the Chevy, I have heard to many issues about the newer Chevy even the HD trucks. I mean both you could get for the high 40K mark, but as for daily use, seat comfort and support Ram.
I bought the Chevy. It's my daily driver. Married with 3 kids. Everybody loves it. Ram also has a history of rust and electrical issues. No truck is perfect. If they were then everybody would buy it and there'd be no competition against it.
@@domin8ss All of the truck manufacturers have had rust issues, it boils down to keeping it sprayed off if your state uses salt. But when people complain to me directly as a sales consultant for the Ram brand that their new 70k denali 1500 has been in the shop for a total of 38 days in a year and 5 computers later. Just sold a 3500 Cummins to long time Chevy guy his 19 Duramax with 32k miles has had emission issues constantly, literally bought 20 GMC 3500 600 miles in dpf plugged and in limp mode and can't haul his trailer for his company. His new ram already has 3600 miles nothing. I had a another long time GM guy come in on a new 3500 due to his '15 3500 Denali Duramax less than 150k miles blowing the engine had a $17000 bill, yikes. Plus our growing collection of Ford trucks right now as its about 1 a month for me personally, but I'll give it to you I have customers with new truck have a couple of electronic issues like the ramcharger not working and an odd piece here and there. Chevrolet is not the same brand they were when I was a kid when thats all my family owned till 2007, our '96 1500 was more reliable than our '07 1500.
@@whatchis1120 are we really discussing 1-ton trucks on a video about 1/2-ton trucks? I bet a Chevy salesman could come in here and say very similar stuff about Dodge owners buying Chevys.
@@domin8ss Still a chevrolet, I'm sorry the majority of my customers are HD owners. But I have a ton of others that are in the family and friends. We have a gm store beside us they bought their Rams at auction, I can look them up that's how I know. The Ford dealer accross from us has no Rams all chevrolets and other fords. You can do your own search all you want, but if you want to discuss 1 tons in depth I can. Have fun with you lifter issues, ac problems and rust problems on the wax frame of your from the 50's. Along with the water based paint that chips awfully look it up. Bye!
@@whatchis1120 Again, everybody can point to something and say, "look at the trash". Dodge has bigger problems with rust and electrical failure. I haven't experienced the paint problems you said. The lifter issue was last decade. And, I've never had an ac issue. Many years ago I worked in auto parts. It was the imports that had ac issues, like Mitsubishi and Volkswagen. Ford was ball joints and ECUs. Dodge was parts for engine rebuilds on 318s and 360s. Chevys were typically oil changes, brake pads, etc. There be the occasional blower door motor, but that was about it.
Ram Rebel with the 8.4 touch screen with the buttons for climate control etc. axle lock button huge bonus imo. As well a split tailgate, would be my choice
Have been studying the Rebel for 6months. Test drove a Trail Boss and bought it. There both nice trucks!!! Had get used tho 55k is out of my range. Hope it works out!!
Haha, I’ve been debating which truck I want, my brother got a brand new 2021 rebel, I’ve been looking at a rebel, trail boss or an at4 and I’m struggling.. I’m thinking rebel or trail boss, did you test an at4 and if you did what was your opinion on it?
Did you test drive both befote making your purchase? IMO, GM has the most comfortable seats, but Ram is the only truck that switched to coil springs. The ride is so superior! My Rebel with towing package is awesome. I barely know the trailer is behind me. The 5.7 hemi is soooo much better then GM's 5.3. And GM 5.3 manifold bolts break all the time. GM is aware of the problem but looks the other way...shame on you.
The Trail Boss is a cheap add-on package to any Silverado trim, just a cheap G80 locker, 32" tires, a 2" front lift spacer and a black grill. The RAM Rebel is a complete model and off-road package on arguably the best line of trucks currently in production. So yeah, I would get the Rebel with it's true e-locker, Bilstein tuned suspension, 33" tires, fully to itself exterior & interior details.
I Would take the trail boss. You hardly ever pay MSRP at a GM dealer so your probably gonna be in the high 40k range. I love the Ram interior but it is too digital. I like a combo of both which the Trail Boss has.
I think the ram looks like a 55k truck where the chevy looks like a 35k truck that they are charging 55k for and thats not trying to take a swip at chevy .I like both would own either one but id go for the ram at that price point of 55k its about what you get for the price tag.
My Trail Boss is nicer and better equipped than TFL's, and I got it for $51k. Price was not negotiable since GM gives a discount for first responders. Police, fire, healthcare, and military all get the same deal. TFL was telling you MSRP, not the accustomed prove these trucks are selling for. The real tell tale is that you can't find a Chevy at the dealerships. They are selling very fast. Ram dealerships still have inventory.
I would go with the Ram any day over any GM product. I use to be a GM fan until the ignition scandal they had I lost all respect for the company as a whole.
@@Hellenkeller777 I don't care how long ago it was. My wife had a car with the ignition problem and it went to the dealership 4 times and they couldn't even fix it right. They put my kids life at risk and that's a big no no with me.
I would definitely go with the Chevy. It’s why I’m planning to buy one when the year end discounts come around (2021). It’s an all around great vehicle. I don’t really care about all of the technology crap in other vehicles. Just more stuff to break. I prefer mine to be simple, affordable, but nice. That’s what Chevy is offering.
I have a 5.7 8 speed and get 22mpg all day long. I drive in easy hills, then in town, then on terrible efficiency highway due to mostly uphill for my commute.
LMAO Andre! "Rebel 12 gives you this, the cool entertainment screen and giant...(pause)...um...you know...everything" I love it that you guys are real, not worried about editing, because it makes your videos fun.
I love driving trucks around 90% of the time because am scared driving a small car after being in a four way accidents...10% of the time..am picking things up at home depot and towing my boat in the summer..
Change the ranchos shocks and add 35” tires and it’s a different truck from first hand knowledge. Sure the Rams interior is better and newer but I have no complaints about my trailboss. It works. And no thank you for a rotary shifter, trucks need a Column shifter I don’t want a bmw shifter. TB for the win.
Ppl make fun of ram engine bays saying that there’s too much room / waste of space, but I work on my Ram 1500s and I really appreciate the space so I don’t cut my hands as much and can fit my arms in the tight areas to access bolts etc.
Ram for me. I've had mine for 5 months, and love it. I drove a Silverado, but I can't get past the looks, cheap interior, and couldn't find one made in the US.
It's not an "embarrassment" really... It's a damn truck, the chevys interior is well enough for a truck. But yes, compared to Ford and Ram, Chevy obviously isn't as nice in their luxury trims, but having a super nice interior shouldn't be a super overtalked area, for a truck.
I believe you can get the ram rebel in a simpler version, with on par tech with the chevy and it would be cheaper than your version, To claim you like the simpler chevy but have to pay just as much is foolish, IMO. Good review.
@@bluephoenix383 yh, chevy fans keep saying "you dont need power to plz" or "chevy looks amazing" and it clearly shows in sales that non of that is true. They need to stop designing, go back and add power like stupid. Just LS3 all thier vehicles for 2022
I think a better comparison would be the GMC AT4 and Rebel. The TrailBoss really only gives you the upgraded suspension, whereas the AT4 has a number of upgrades over the “standard” Sierra packages (much like the Rebel).
I own a 2021 Trail Boss and typically Dodge's seem a bit louder but I like the potency and decibel level of the Trail Boss more in this video. I propped the flapper valve open with two hose clamps and covered the resonator screens with exhaust tape and I'm very pleased with mine.. but the Trail Boss sounds louder in this video🤷♂️
Ram. I do own a 5th Gen so I am biased in this. However, my company truck is a TB and while it’s a very nice and capable truck, I can’t wait to take the RAM out of the garage, I get so excited to drive it still. Seriously though, this is all about user/owner preference, both are very nice, capable trucks.
I am on my second Ram and I love everything about it, except that it only comes with four standard tie downs in the bed. Every time I haul stuff I am reminded of that. Chevy did that better. As for everything else, I love the Ram. I just got back from a 2500 mile multi-state drive, hauling stuff part of the way, and the comfort, the power, the utility are all excellent. If I were in the market today I would trade for another Ram 1500 with the 5.7. However, I am leaning toward a diesel next time and everything I hear suggests the Duramax is a better choice. I'll have to research that one carefully when that day comes.
My 04 Silverado was such a great truck, I'll always route for the Chevy. As far as I know, my old Silverado is still on the roads with a new owner, prob over 300k miles now.
I’ve owned both trucks and liked them both but when it comes down to it I’d have to go Ram. The amount of money that pickup trucks are going for today they better have the best updated interior. If you’re going to say old school interior then it should have an old school price 🇺🇸
Great video! My buddy has that Ram and I’ll admit that screen the panoramic sun roof (I know yours didn’t have it) was quite impressive. However, as a truck guy, sometimes simple is better. Besides, i know friends with Rams and the interior did not hold up over time. Color me “analog”!!!
RAM Hemi is a very thirsty motor! I had the 5.7L w/321 rear end and if I was lucky 17mpg highway taking it easy on the pedal. I now own a 6.4L Hemi w/373 rear end and 13mpg city and maybe 16mpg highway. I love my RAM, but they do need to improve on their MPG, and their power numbers. Whereas Ford and Chevy are always boosting their tow and horse power numbers! Love your videos TFL!!!
I grabbed a 2021 Rebel Night edition last month. Love both trucks, really loving mine. Just saw the add for the 21 Ford F150 tremor as well. It's a good time for choices.
I am picking up my Rebel tomorrow Night as well. fully decked out, MSRP was 64k, got it for 51k.... I was going to wait for Tremor but that 3.5 ecoboost and turbo on off road.... idk...
Ok...complete transparency...my Gen2 Raptor totally blows the dipstick test, I'm 6ft and can't reach it with out a small step stool...both truck lose the off road test - neither has a minimum 33" tire..and finally why do you guys always leave out gear ratios? (as delivered and optional) it's an off road truck, ratios matter! Enjoy watching you guys together, got some chemistry going on :)
I bought the ram and loved it. I was bored one day and test drove the chevy for the sake of curiosity. I now own the chevy and have to intentions of going back to ram. I know the chevy isn't as fancy on the inside but honestly that's part of why I like it so much.

Could not agree more. I previously had the GMC as well. Very nice truck but the Rebel is super sweet.

I own a 2019 Silverado LT Trail Boss and I absolutely love it. I have about 27k miles on it now and haven't had a single issue with it. Have done lots of off-roading, towing, and long distance road trips and it's handled all of it in stride.
Yeah I feel like I could have been happy with a rebel too. My buddy has a 2017 rebel and really loves it(minus the infotainment system).
Yeah I think they’ve gotten better on the newer trucks, for sure. His is just too slow. He can’t even answer phone calls with it because the call is missed before the answer call button actually works. Witnessed it myself a couple times actually. The functions are there, but it’s too slow to function properly. The newer ones don’t have that problem though I think.
If you still have the 19 trail boss, how has it held up over the years now?
I'm about to buy a used 2019 trail boss and looking for owner opinions on it
I have a TB with the 6.2 having kids, dogs I need a functional and rugged interior. It’s durable, doesn’t show scratches and is fancy enough for me.
My vote is for the Silverado. The fancy interior is coming for ‘22
👏👏👏
2020 Trail Boss 6.2L, Standard bed owner here. Was not a fan of Dodge exterior so didn’t test a Ram, but did test the F150 and Tundra. Ultimately, because I am 6’6”, fit and driving comfort were a big deciding factor. As far as interior goes, I like it as simple as possible; as long as it has cold air and CarPlay I’m good.
You should have drove the ram. I drove all three, omg the ram drives so much nicer. I purchased a jeep though 😂 it drive horrible before my modifications.
I’ve always had the best luck with Ram trucks, I take great care of all my vehicles so I have better luck than most but my last Ram 5.7 made it to 657k miles before the head gasket finally gave way, it was an easy fix due to the push rod design, the Ford would be a disaster to fix due to the ovehead cams and the unnecessary amount of valves so the Ram and gm win here. All three trucks are fantastic and you can’t go wrong these days with any of them but I’ll always spend my own money on the rams. I’m a mechanical technician currently working in the aerospace industry on missile systems and I have to say that the Ram trucks are amazingly high quality these days. If you can afford the Ram definitely go for it, at least go and treat drive it if you normally buy Ford or gm, I think you’ll end up buying the Ram. It’s pretty incredible how fantastic all of these truck have become, especially the rams which I can’t stress enough are just so close to perfect.
Crap thats a lot of miles!
For any Truck.
My best on a Dodge maxi van hd was 350,000
come on man @657miles that ram would be nothing but a pile of rust, I really mean @65k
@@lakernation4725 Try the new Ram trucks. Things have changed.
Had a RAM 2017 didn't like the shifter. Found myself turning it while on the road by accident because I was looking for the volume. Screen to much for me. I like old school knobs and gauges. Oh and shifter. Lol. I do like the look of TB better imo. Corner step a must for me so I went back to Chevy.
Was a Chevy fan for years until I bought my 2020 Ram Rebel. My Rebel if an amazing truck with an amazing interior. The Hemi motor is an amazing performer and the ride is unsurpassed!
Another vote for the Ram, but with the standard HEMI, no food processor.
If only they had a real shifter instead of a food processor dial.
Joseph Whiskey Beale good point!
@@josephwhiskeybeale no one has actual shifters. Even if the truck looks like it does. It doesn't, everyone has electronic shifters and gm was the first to use them. The I like the dial better after having one.
The "food processor" is what makes the RAM competitive.
Add a Mr Fusion and I'm all in...
I picked up my 2020 Ram Rebel 1500 because of watching your reviews and real world tests. Thanks for the hard work and dedication to give consumers like me a somewhat unbiased review and opinion on the meat and potatoes of these products. And to be honest, the only reason I picked a Ram Rebel is because of the 12inch screen. Everything else that was great about it was just icing on the cake.
I went with the 6.2L trail boss and love it
this i understand...that 6.2 is awesome, not to mention 10 speed transmission! if only we had RAM interior + GM powertrain (also like 2" vs 1" lift) we'd be in truck heaven.
@@unixdoes the trail boss has a factory 2” lift.
@@unixdoes on the 2021 at least
I would take simple and actual truck features over interior......
I've had new 1500s and 2500s.....ram I have now I feel like I could break it pretty easily, my 2021 gmc 1500 would be hard to break, my 2022 2500 silverado I don't think I could break it if I tried.......
Just a feeling I have about last 4 trucks in last 4 years
I'm looking at getting one now. What do you think. About getting one with the 6.2 V8 or get it with the 3.0 Duramax
Great review, but i will take my Trail Boss 24/7.
For the simple fact of it
works.
If i want real flash, I'll take a Cadillac or Lincoln.
I wouldn’t compare a Ram to a Lincoln or Caddy because of “flash”. It just has a little more technology, it’s still a truck.
If you own a truck for 5 years....extra technology can be a problem. How long do you keep your phone and other techy stuff before issues? When that 12” display goes out, how much $$$$ to replace and hiw much functionality is lost if the truck isn’t worth the money to replace? One year ownership is not reality for many of us.
I've owned both of these trucks both 2020, i like the Trail Boss better..it actually feels of better quality and more reliable layout. The Rebel was having electrical issues at 8k miles!
What kind of issues?
yeah but did u get it kitted out with all the doo dads? cause getting a base rebel with the 5.7l and 4x4 should help eliminate more things to go wrong

Chevy.....I have a 2019 LTZ and love it, As Tommy says the interior is not as fancy but it works perfectly and I agree. My neighbor has the Ram and I have been in it and drove it, once you get past the fancy interior, the Chevy is a far better truck.
I'm a Mopar guy but I love trucks from all brands. I wish I could somehow drive different ones all the time. Personally I feel Ram has the nicest interiors and innovative storage bins like the ones under the rear floor mats, the double glove boxes, optional Ram Boxes in the box sides etc. Ford has improved their interior for 2021. GM may want to invest in some nicer interior designs and materials too. The Ram back seat in the crew cab is a few inches larger than the Chevy that's why it has a shorter box.
I m a chevy guy but this year i love the RAM looks..
I like that '55 GMC grille.
Awesome to see you guys expanding your reviews and informative content to the motorcycle community now! Cheers and rubber side down on the new channel! Great job as usual gents!
Tommy, no one believes you would take the Chevy over the RAM. No one.
Many do actually...especially those who have driven both. the Ram doesn't drive well.
@@MrTaffiny1 I had a RAM 1500 with the coil spring suspension. It drove extremely well, with or without, a load.
Ram drives way better than Chevy in half and 3/4. Night and day difference
Noooo one
“The suspension setup is pretty similar, whoa whoawhoa” lol got me lol
Tough choice, I like them both but I got over 400k miles on my last ram and it still runs lol. Transmission just started slipping so I parked it. Now I’m trying to decide what to buy next. Great video, you guys were very informative. I’m probably gonna go with the ram.
Put 2 transmissions in my 2014 GMC with only 150,000 and did not use it to tow. Hope my Ram does not have this issue.
GMCs are known for transmission problems. Why do people still buy them is beyond me.
Ram has way better ride quality and stronger engine.
True to that!!!! I also have a dodge ram 2005 with around 400k miles . Same transmission and same engine. Knock on wood everything is fine for now . I just recently got my ceramic gray rebel .. and I must say it’s a bad ass truck !!! I also had an old dodge ram Dakota 5.2 v8 with over 450k miles on it. Same engine I had to change the transmission though , but engine was great .
For 55k price range, I can simply choose RAM Rebel but like Andre said the fuel efficiency isn't for everyone and also the air suspension setup on RAM is more comfy for daily pavement driving. Can you guys compare the newer model GMC Yukon AT4, Chevy Tahoe Z71, Sequoia TRD Pro, Land Rover Discovery or LR4, Lexus GX or LX, Ford Explorer, Acura MDX, Audi Q7, Volvo XC70, Hyundai Palisade and Kia Telluride? I think it's a good comparison idea just because some of us more into these type of suv as daily uses i.e. hauling groceries, a 55 gallon empty rain water barrel, some 6ft 2x4 wood or pvc pipes, transport kayak for 2, light off-roading, carry 2 dobermann dogs and most important is real world fuel efficiency. That'd be a good morning breakfast show and before shopping for next vehicle. Thank you 😊 💓
Sorry, I'm a GM guy. I pick the Rebel, without a food processor.
Next time you check out a Ram try operating the radio or climate with the gloves on. This is why Chevy wins.

Pulling the trigger on a new 2023 Rebel GT 5.7 Black on black ! Looked at a lot of other options but the Rebel really had the performance and capabilities I was looking for.
No mention of the coolers in the back of the Ram. Love them!!
As an owner of a 2021 Rebel I’m partial. I did drive a 2021 Chevy Silverado with the 6.2 , prices and options close. The Chevy was slightly quicker , had much more torque. But I chose the Ram. Keep it up guys I enjoy your blogs
Do you know which one has better mpg between the two 5.7hemi and 6.2 ……?
Long time Chrysler owner but I decided to go with the trail boss. Love the factory lift but initially I did miss the power of the hemi. Overall both of these trucks are beautiful with their obvious pros and cons. I gave in and bought a Chevy and so far I love it!!
The ram doesn’t come with a factory lift?
@@juniorpedraza4805 it may but definitely not a 2 inch lift. When I test drove one it sure didn’t seem like it but I could be wrong.
@@juniorpedraza4805 It does.
I have a 2019 Custom Trail Boss and I love it. It looks and performs just like the $55k LT Trail Boss, but without all the fancy features or luxury options, but I only paid $37k. For that price, I'll pick my truck all day.
I went with the LT Trail Boss. You couldn't get a Custom with the 6.2 in 2020. With kids and a dog, the leather interior is much better. I needed the console in the middle of the front seats instead of the folding third seat for things I need to keep with me. $51k well equipped before I added several thousand in accessories. I'm also very glad I have the 10-speed.
Who spends that much and doesnt get loaded?
@@boostedbavarian people that want a better package with higher resale value. Unless it’s a specific option like the Torsen Front diff on a Raptor, options get you zero on trade in value, where as a package level difference bets a large improvement.
Short to say a base upper level will save you more money over a fully optioned lower level.
I have owned 3 silverados since 1998....currently have a 2018 z71 and since GM keeps taking options away comparing the 2018 to the 2020.....honestly would have to take a very hard look at Rebel on my next purchase. The interior is hands down winner on Rebel and the infotainment screen, well that might seal the deal
its worth it. like old school chevys, but the ram wins
Hey Andrei, even though you picked Rebel, good choice. You didn't mentioned infloor storage bins. Rebel for the win!!!
Yes they did.
You should test the fuel economy on the 2020 Rebel and see if Ram changed anything to improve over your original test.
Scott Egan but it is a truck, they should add turbos to theirs rams and stop complaining about the 3 less miles per gallon witch when put on the road isn’t a difference
I switched from Ford to
Chevy , it feels like a man's truck my Z71 off-road all day long Trail Boss!!
Nice. To me, Chevy is the most "truck like" out of the 3. It's designed specifically to be a proper truck.
Ram really needs to put that 6.4 liter in the 1500. whether it be for offroad, or street performance.
Though trx had it
@@marcuskoolrtTRX is 6.2 supercharged
I started in a 61 Corvair Rampside, 67 Chevy PU, 75 Scottsdale, and 75 Suburban than several Chevy Vans. I like Chevy!........and I would buy the RAM!
Go with the Ram. I have a 2019 Ram Big Horn with the Hemi and tow 95% of the time and have 28,000 miles on it in just one year without any failures. Love this truck
I have a 2018 Silverado with 70000 miles no issues. I also have a 2019 RAM with 33000 miles. The RAM has been ok but it's averaging 14 mpg mostly highway. Go with RAM if you want to get a truck which does not match advertised performance.
2019 Custom Trailboss purchased in July of 2019, now with 47k miles on it. Only problem I have had is the radio glitched 2 times and wouldn't turn off. I regularly tow 7000lbs+ and have had no reliability issues.
Thank you Tommy it's nice to know that I'm not the only one who dislikes the Catfish grill on the Rebel. I like that they tuned the catfish down on the T-Rex.
Trailboss for me. Ram is nice, maybe even nicer, but I feel at home in a boss. No place like home.
How has your trail boss held up over the years? I'm about to buy a used 2019 trail boss.
@@chrissnider9555 It was a great truck never had issues with it. I’d say as long as it has the 10 speed transmission and has had good consistent services as needed you should be alright. Mine was a 2020 and so that’s the model year I’d recommend also had 5.3 V8 which was great. Just do the scheduled maintenance as needed and should be pretty great vehicle for you.
I've owned a 2016 Rebel w/5.7 Hemi since new and I've put 226,000 kms on it in about 4 years.... easily the best truck I've ever owned!
Trailboss for me
Love the video..love the Ram..if fuel mileage is a concern get a diesel..what’s the mileage then..I don’t worry about mileage...I care about power..if I wanted mileage go buy a Prius...lol
Why not get both?? My ideal transportation situation would be a 3500 Ram diesel 4x4 with a leveling kit at 35” BFG all terrains with high clearance steel bumpers and air lockers front and rear and a c6 z06 corvette with tons of mods and a Toyota Corolla for everyday driving
Biggest standout for me is the interior. Both trucks do most things well. Tow haul etc. but man GM and their short comings on their interiors. It’s not bad , it’s just bland.
Trailboss, 6.2L all day!
I'd take a non e-torque Rebel over the Trail Boss for various reasons: 33 inch tire, Hemi with port injection, not direct injection which ends up in a sooty mess, ZF transmission vs 10 speed (jury still out there), interior quality, unloaded ride quality with the coils. And a big one for me since I live in a salt belt, paint on the frame for the Ram vs wax only on the GM. Hard to believe GM still does that.
The Ram all day everyday, like Tommy says welcome to the 90's and fisher price plastics. I think my 2015 Ram is on par with the Chevy, I have heard to many issues about the newer Chevy even the HD trucks. I mean both you could get for the high 40K mark, but as for daily use, seat comfort and support Ram.
I bought the Chevy. It's my daily driver. Married with 3 kids. Everybody loves it. Ram also has a history of rust and electrical issues. No truck is perfect. If they were then everybody would buy it and there'd be no competition against it.
@@domin8ss All of the truck manufacturers have had rust issues, it boils down to keeping it sprayed off if your state uses salt. But when people complain to me directly as a sales consultant for the Ram brand that their new 70k denali 1500 has been in the shop for a total of 38 days in a year and 5 computers later. Just sold a 3500 Cummins to long time Chevy guy his 19 Duramax with 32k miles has had emission issues constantly, literally bought 20 GMC 3500 600 miles in dpf plugged and in limp mode and can't haul his trailer for his company. His new ram already has 3600 miles nothing. I had a another long time GM guy come in on a new 3500 due to his '15 3500 Denali Duramax less than 150k miles blowing the engine had a $17000 bill, yikes. Plus our growing collection of Ford trucks right now as its about 1 a month for me personally, but I'll give it to you I have customers with new truck have a couple of electronic issues like the ramcharger not working and an odd piece here and there. Chevrolet is not the same brand they were when I was a kid when thats all my family owned till 2007, our '96 1500 was more reliable than our '07 1500.

@@whatchis1120 Again, everybody can point to something and say, "look at the trash". Dodge has bigger problems with rust and electrical failure. I haven't experienced the paint problems you said. The lifter issue was last decade. And, I've never had an ac issue. Many years ago I worked in auto parts. It was the imports that had ac issues, like Mitsubishi and Volkswagen. Ford was ball joints and ECUs. Dodge was parts for engine rebuilds on 318s and 360s. Chevys were typically oil changes, brake pads, etc. There be the occasional blower door motor, but that was about it.
Ram Rebel with the 8.4 touch screen with the buttons for climate control etc. axle lock button huge bonus imo. As well a split tailgate, would be my choice
Ram all the way. Will be buying one hopefully soon 👍
Have been studying the Rebel for 6months. Test drove a Trail Boss and bought it. There both nice trucks!!! Had get used tho 55k is out of my range. Hope it works out!!
Haha, I’ve been debating which truck I want, my brother got a brand new 2021 rebel, I’ve been looking at a rebel, trail boss or an at4 and I’m struggling.. I’m thinking rebel or trail boss, did you test an at4 and if you did what was your opinion on it?
Did you test drive both befote making your purchase? IMO, GM has the most comfortable seats, but Ram is the only truck that switched to coil springs. The ride is so superior! My Rebel with towing package is awesome. I barely know the trailer is behind me. The 5.7 hemi is soooo much better then GM's 5.3. And GM 5.3 manifold bolts break all the time. GM is aware of the problem but looks the other way...shame on you.
The Trail Boss is a cheap add-on package to any Silverado trim, just a cheap G80 locker, 32" tires, a 2" front lift spacer and a black grill. The RAM Rebel is a complete model and off-road package on arguably the best line of trucks currently in production. So yeah, I would get the Rebel with it's true e-locker, Bilstein tuned suspension, 33" tires, fully to itself exterior & interior details.
I Would take the trail boss. You hardly ever pay MSRP at a GM dealer so your probably gonna be in the high 40k range. I love the Ram interior but it is too digital. I like a combo of both which the Trail Boss has.
Now I have to find your video on the the ride quality of the RAM. The trail on RUclips never ends.
Exterior: TB
Interior: Ram
Better value is the TB
Dr. Sunchaser agreed
The TB has also the better bed. Maybe it gets the new Tahoe interior with a facelift.
Dr. Sunchaser how can the TB be a better value when you get more for your money and higher quality with the Ram?
74Beeper I mean better discounts/deals on the TB.
I think the ram looks like a 55k truck where the chevy looks like a 35k truck that they are charging 55k for and thats not trying to take a swip at chevy .I like both would own either one but id go for the ram at that price point of 55k its about what you get for the price tag.
My Trail Boss is nicer and better equipped than TFL's, and I got it for $51k. Price was not negotiable since GM gives a discount for first responders. Police, fire, healthcare, and military all get the same deal. TFL was telling you MSRP, not the accustomed prove these trucks are selling for. The real tell tale is that you can't find a Chevy at the dealerships. They are selling very fast. Ram dealerships still have inventory.
Honestly I just can't wait for you guys to get your hands on the Ranger Tremor and Bronco! Looking forward to seeing the Black Diamond trim!

I would definitely go with the Chevy. It’s why I’m planning to buy one when the year end discounts come around (2021). It’s an all around great vehicle. I don’t really care about all of the technology crap in other vehicles. Just more stuff to break. I prefer mine to be simple, affordable, but nice. That’s what Chevy is offering.

Change the ranchos shocks and add 35” tires and it’s a different truck from first hand knowledge. Sure the Rams interior is better and newer but I have no complaints about my trailboss. It works.

It's not an "embarrassment" really... It's a damn truck, the chevys interior is well enough for a truck. But yes, compared to Ford and Ram, Chevy obviously isn't as nice in their luxury trims, but having a super nice interior shouldn't be a super overtalked area, for a truck.

There is such a thing as being too objective where one cannot make a choice.
I'd go rebel with the diesel over the 6.2 GM. There's the efficiency you were looking for Andre!
I'd go GMC Sierra AT4 with the 3.0 Duramax
I think a better comparison would be the GMC AT4 and Rebel. The TrailBoss really only gives you the upgraded suspension, whereas the AT4 has a number of upgrades over the “standard” Sierra packages (much like the Rebel).
My best friend has the AT4. Nice truck. We both prefer my Rebel.
A loaded AT4 at 55 grand?? Impossible to find.
I own a 2021 Trail Boss and typically Dodge's seem a bit louder but I like the potency and decibel level of the Trail Boss more in this video.

E-Torque is a $1450 option on the HEMI and it helps boost the fuel economy by 2 MPG or so.
make sure to tell me how many years it takes you to make up the $1450 by maybe saving 2MPG, GM for MPG

Ram. I do own a 5th Gen so I am biased in this. However, my company truck is a TB and while it’s a very nice and capable truck, I can’t wait to take the RAM out of the garage, I get so excited to drive it still. Seriously though, this is all about user/owner preference, both are very nice, capable trucks.
I am on my second Ram and I love everything about it, except that it only comes with four standard tie downs in the bed. Every time I haul stuff I am reminded of that. Chevy did that better. As for everything else, I love the Ram. I just got back from a 2500 mile multi-state drive, hauling stuff part of the way, and the comfort, the power, the utility are all excellent. If I were in the market today I would trade for another Ram 1500 with the 5.7. However, I am leaning toward a diesel next time and everything I hear suggests the Duramax is a better choice. I'll have to research that one carefully when that day comes.
@Hill City Skunkworks Don't forget that the Ram has an optional sliding tie down system.
I recently purchased used Rebel and I love it. I might be little biased as I work on Rams for past 8 years. 😂
My 04 Silverado was such a great truck, I'll always route for the Chevy. As far as I know, my old Silverado is still on the roads with a new owner, prob over 300k miles now.
I’ve owned both trucks and liked them both but when it comes down to it I’d have to go Ram. The amount of money that pickup trucks are going for today they better have the best updated interior. If you’re going to say old school interior then it should have an old school price 🇺🇸
The Ram Rebel is far more capable & refined truck.
Can’t wait for Ram Rebel against Ram TRX
Amazing how we all.love different rhings..I hate the white lettering out on the tires
I'd go with the Ram, no food processor. They both look good outside, but the Ram interior wins it for me.
Great video! My buddy has that Ram and I’ll admit that screen the panoramic sun roof (I know yours didn’t have it) was quite impressive. However, as a truck guy, sometimes simple is better. Besides, i know friends with Rams and the interior did not hold up over time. Color me “analog”!!!
My dads has the Sierra at4 with the 6.2 and gets around 22-23 mpgs combined and when he was driving long to work he got 25-26 mpgs
RAM Hemi is a very thirsty motor! I had the 5.7L w/321 rear end and if I was lucky 17mpg highway taking it easy on the pedal. I now own a 6.4L Hemi w/373 rear end and 13mpg city and maybe 16mpg highway. I love my RAM, but they do need to improve on their MPG, and
their power numbers. Whereas Ford and Chevy are always boosting their tow and horse power numbers! Love your videos TFL!!!
If Chevy's interior was like the Ram, now that would be a nice truck.
Great info.
I grabbed a 2021 Rebel Night edition last month. Love both trucks, really loving mine. Just saw the add for the 21 Ford F150 tremor as well. It's a good time for choices.
I am picking up my Rebel tomorrow Night as well. fully decked out, MSRP was 64k, got it for 51k.... I was going to wait for Tremor but that 3.5 ecoboost and turbo on off road.... idk...
That new style Silverado is the reason I switched to Ram from GM.
sad to say myself hardcore z71 fan....Rebel has my attention for sure
Ok...complete transparency...my Gen2 Raptor totally blows the dipstick test, I'm 6ft and can't reach it with out a small step stool...both truck lose the off road test - neither has a minimum 33" tire..and finally why do you guys always leave out gear ratios? (as delivered and optional) it's an off road truck, ratios matter!
Enjoy watching you guys together, got some chemistry going on :)
i kinda of like the chevy dash not as techy as ram looks easier to use and i prefer dials and switches .
I bought the ram and loved it. I was bored one day and test drove the chevy for the sake of curiosity. I now own the chevy and have to intentions of going back to ram. I know the chevy isn't as fancy on the inside but honestly that's part of why I like it so much.
Guys you forgot to mention that you can get the Ram Rebel bed in 2 lengths: 5'7" or 6'4"
Still shorter than 6'6" standard bed in chevy
@@johnbenson4744 sorry but 70in is 5' 10", not 6' 6".
@@kevinboerner3977 ya 5' 10 is short bed, longer than ram 5' 7, and 6' 6 is reg bed also longer than rams reg bed at 6' 4.
Pretty sure the rebel comes with only one size bed which is the 5’7”
@@svr5516 You can get the Rebel with the Quad cab, 6'4" bed, just not on the crew cab.
I choose the rebel. I have one and I love it. It's all I want it in it
