During this presentation, we will take a 1st person look at what the vehicle is all about beginning with the start up, performance data, fuel economy, the occasional track data, and build quality. Also, I will teach you how to use most of the interior and exterior features in a detailed fashion, that before, you could only get from going to a dealership yourself! Throughout the video, I will highlight key styling and unique differences about the vehicle, any available options, and of course it would not be an enthusiast car video without the good ole engine portion with rev and exhaust note with interior and exterior perspectives. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.
FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE CHANNEL SEE BELOW: In this channel you will find in depth educational videos of automobiles from all over the world, presented in a more detailed fashion than ever before. Basically, this gives the viewer the chance to view the most detailed 1st person look you can get without going to an actual dealer yourself! Every video is consistent in the way I present so viewers know what to expect in my presentations. I treat every vehicle with the same respect whether a 1960 Chevrolet Impala SS or the 2012 Lamborghini Aventador. I film all types of vehicles from past, present, and future while broadening the knowledge of the automotive enthusiast. You will see everything from vintage, brand new, exotic, mainstream, old, etc. I am very proud of this channel and have built it up from amateur videos years ago to what you see today. I wanted to share my love for the automotive world with the rest of the world. Be sure to explore the massive video variety, have fun and enjoy The Driver's Seat of RUclips!

Literally just bought a 2016 Rebel in blue about two weeks ago! I love the truck so much!
does it use a lot of gas?
+fasial king for what it is and what I use it for (commuting to work and the occasional off reading) it does well and I get very decent fuel economy
@TheNugler try a tundra
@TheNugler true
8 years later still have it?
Seven years later!!! Still my dream vehicle.
I feel ya. I have a 16' ram big horn but the rebel holds a special place i need in my life lol.
Same! 8 years later
At least nobody will have to ask what you're driving. I think the tailgate has that covered.
+thedub007 Same thing with the Raptor and older Chevrolet trucks (including my avalanche) :P
+Saabkyle04 lol
Ya and not one bit ashamed of the 83 chevy one of my buddies has
I'm a huge dodge guy. And that rear badging is horrible. I'd get it debadged right away.
+thedub007 Definitely gonna have to drive that straight to the shop and get it debadged. That's horrible.
keep up the excellent work kyle. we all love and appreciate your dedication.
Thank you! You are One of the best reviewers on the web. The details are just amazing and so thorough. It has really helped me make a decision on which vehicle to buy. I know how much effort is required to gather and report all the information that you do, and it is greatly appreciated...
This guy is a huge dork and I don't like listening to him.
However, he killed this review of the truck. With all the specs that anyone could want to know.
Great job man this is how everyone should do a review.
I really like it! Until now, i never even knew the "Rebel" package existed! I love that cool grill and giant RAM badges. In a way it does remind me of the Ford SVT Raptor. The interior is Classic Dodge! (And i agree the placement red throughout the interior is similar to the Jeep Renegade Trailhawk). Great review as always, Kyle!
im in love with this truck, I really am hell I don't even mind the obvious ram logos... but seriously one thing I HATE in these newer Rams are the JAGUAR STYLE dial shifters, I mean its a fucking truck not an executive's XJ, which Is why I wished they stuck to the good old column shifter but I guess they installed it for convenience purposes cuz some people have difficulty backing a truck up I guess...
Code[X] Who says all change is good??
they will. only people buying GM are stuck in their ways seniors who still think they make a good truck. Look around at who's driving them... then look in the seats of fords and dodges... 10 year average age difference younger in the ford/dodge.
Just bought a 2016 Ram Rebel last week. Love it!!!
How’s it been for ya ? Looking at one right now lol
Update ? Thinking about trading my truck in for one
Good work on the review Kyle. I have this truck and your video saved me a lot of time and beats going through the owner manual the first day I got it. For people who want a work truck that also looks good and comfortably hauls people this was a great choice for me.
Hands down some of the best reviews on RUclips. Thanks Kyle. In the cases that you have a vehicle that can do some off-roading, it would be nice to get your impression of those capabilities as well (assuming the dealers you work with don't mind and you feel comfortable with that). Either way, I always look for your videos on any vehicle I'm interested in because I know you'll cover everything.
I have this truck and love it, get compliments constantly.
i always like how indepth this channel goes into vehicles, really helps when you dont know what to buy next!
With a couple of great modifications this truck will look so badass.
Just purchased one on Richie Brothers farm Auction. Have not picked it up yet...Fingers crossed she's a runner. Only has 115,000Km or 71645 Miles. They are an incredible truck IMHO. Currently driving a 1990 Dodge W150 with a 318 so I should see a performance increase Lol!!! Feeling blessed.
Right when you pulled out the key to unlock the truck I knew you were filming in 60fps. It looks 100% better!!
I know this is old, but I own one right now so I looked and there you were. That was the best walk through of the truck (of anything) and they should pay you for this video to show to customers or put it in the owners manual! Never thought I'd ENJOY listening to a guy talk for 30 min. about his truck! (JK I'm from Ga... I should b an expert) TY very much for the awesome video!!
This is m absolute favorite truck in the world!
Had mine since January and absolutely in love with it.
Just bought mine question for you does it have CarPlay ? I can’t info online thanks
@@Joee6395 2018s and up do
@@Joee6395 negative on the 2016
Just an idea for you when reviewing trucks, Kyle. Bring a cowboy hat and have it on when you check out the headroom, front and rear, to see if there is enough room to wear it without hitting the roof. This might be of interest for the small percent of the truck buyer population who like to wear their cowboy hat while driving or riding.
The quality of the video is perfect! Thanks Kyle!
The interior in those is fantastic. They're nicer than anything else in the market.
Commenting a year later here and the amount of hate comments here is staggering. Call me a fanboy or something but I love the Rebel for what it is.
wish it was debadged, hate the huge RAM logos, preferred it with subtle DODGE ram badges. Great video, nevertheless.
+Awper Why would it say Dodge? This isn't a Dodge...
+Legal Zephyr what is it? A Lamborghini?
The Kids in Africa It's a Ram. Ram became its own Brand back in 2011 when Fiat bought Chrysler, who is Ram's parent company.
+Legal Zephyr Soo is my charger not a dodge also? The name DODGE ram doesn't click in your head? Every this truck has is dodge, from the ugly key fob to the stupid uconnect radio, just because a different part of the company makes the vehicle doesn't mean it's not a dodge. You wouldn't say Chevrolet isn't a GM product would you? Or a Buick, those are both different parts of the company but GM makes it. It's a dodge m8
+The Kids in Africa He's right actually. RAM is a different company now. If you need proof: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodge_Ram
The 8 speed transmission is great but i wish it has the t-bar shifter like the Dodge Challenger to be honest. Great review!
Great review. You do a better job than the majority of the auto magazines.
A proud wtap member. this bad boiiii ain't no joke. it's beast😈
I love your reviews, but I think that if you really want to gain viewers and popularity, you should include an off road test as well as a road test.
+Max Dudek I would, but I don't have anywhere near me that I could do something like that. Plus, this was borrowed from a dealership, I'd have to have a press vehicle for that to be possible.
+Saabkyle04 That makes perfect sense. Thanks for the response!!
+Max Dudek u welcome
+Max Dudek Of course! :)
Yesss!!
OFF-ROAD A TOYOTA PRIUS!!!!
They definitely should have put a 6.4 Hemi in the Rebel
Great video review! Couple things - the "RAM" badge is only on the Rebel and Laramie Limited models. The Laramie Longhorn deluxe models still feature the original Dodge RAM head (thank god). The rotary dial transmission selector is horrific looking and even less satisfying to operate. 2500 models retain the excellent "column shifter" style. Finally, that seat material is sadly inept when compared to the all leather variants. It wouldn't be so bad if we weren't paying premium money, but the Rebel's are only a little bit cheaper than loaded Laramie Longhorns, which means for a little more you would get a lot more out of a deluxe model with premium seating (I'm also not a fan of the black/red interior, but that's my own bias).
The new heavy duty RAM trucks are the best in their class. I'm am undecided on these 1500s.
I would love to have this truck for the winters we get in the north east
the ram rebel its not a ugly truck but the hemi 5.7lts its a awesome engine and with the 8 speed automatic transmision
its a awesome off road truck thanks to dodge and the interior of the rebel its awesome
who would get the 3.6 .... I mean I know it's a good engine but in this truck it seems ridiculous. then again there are guys driving around jacked up diesel trucks that are only 2wd
+larry Spiller That's what i was thinking! Wouldn't even consider a V6!
5.7L HEMI!!!
3.6 V6 seems more suitable for the Dakota body or a Full sized Dodge car.
+TheDigitalslayer Dodge "car"??? WTF man. You realize it's a TRUCK right, and not a car.
You could be right, Engines today have more horse power output per litre than 15 years ago. With that kind of efficiency. That is one thing I have notice in the past few years.
+larry Spiller Yes, and you know what those guys driving around in those jacked up trucks are compensating for right??....small penis
That was a really solid, well done, and in-depth review. Good job.
That start up sounds so good!!!
#1 if I could have swung 50+ and the bad mpg’s, this is what I’d be driving, mine would have been red. They just look so good! Love my F150, but the big bad Rebel is beautiful!
Can't say I like the turn-dial for gear shifting, I prefer a column stick shifter or even just a classic console stick shifter. Especially for a truck like this, it would make me feel like i wasnt driving a truck.
The Hemi with factory dual exhaust sound awsome at idle
finally a ram 1500 review!! you rock kyle!
personally, i kinda like the plastic on the front, for some reason it looks tough to me
Just so you know Kyle the 4 corner air suspension isn't Rebel exclusive, it can be had on any new 1500 according to the "Build Your Own" tool on the Ram Trucks website. It's hard to find one with it in the wild, I'm assuming that's because of the $1,800 price tag on the option.
i dont even care about the sare.. ITSS ALLL ABOUTTT YOU BABYYY!! @saabkyle04 you tha mannnnnn !! wooot
cars*
Those emblems look amazing but I wish you could have a steel option
Finally they made a dodge ram with a raptor look, really clean truck.
best vehicle review I've ever seen! great work!
This is my favourite off road truck ! Thanks Kyle
Hey kyle, will we get a chance to see you reviewing the new xc90?
did a great job explaining in details also how to use special options great video
You know your stuff dude
Great presentation
Nice looking truck. Well thought out inside and out. Thank you.
Man what a great look for a truck like that! I'd buy it! Great review!
now that is a truck, and that exhaust sounds mean as hell. im still not the biggest fan of the rotory knob as the transmission, i would've preferred if it was on the column or the automatic in the middle.
I actually really want one! I love the in your face styling that they went with. I want everyone to know my truck isn't a regular ram. I am sad that the new hemi in this truck has electric steering and my older 300c has hydraulic. I actually want the electric steering instead
I really like your professional videos and reviews REGARDS FROM POLAND ! :)
Always good to see an interesting video.
Better not be too bad dodge release in South Korea.
ㅠㅠ
About 'Mercedes Benz C63 AMG' or 'C Class coupe' idea to create video ring any bells?
Love the grille , I get to see it everyday in the rear view mirror of my F150
Tell us how the Recall system works at your dealership 🐸☕️
+josh bush , As Far as I know I don't have any recalls, Could you tell us Ford guys how bailouts work ?
+B SCOTT in case you've been living under a rock 2010 fords have been recalled for brake issues, 2011-2014 some other major issues. And in 2014 ford had to recall all f150s due to a failure in the steering gear. They told owners NOT to drive the trucks.... Bailouts have really nothing to do with the truck, as far as I'm concerned the 3500 dodges laugh at the poor conditions the 350/450 suffers.
+josh bush , Josh I'm glad you like your Dodges it's cool at least they are not Toyotas or Nissans . Just bought a 2016 no problems. Have had most models since 95 , not one problem , just routine maintenance . We all have the right to chose the truck we want to drive it just seems the dodge boys buy a basic truck and think it's a race car and have to tailgate or try to race when they're behind me , the Chevy guys get it , they're used to 2nd place ( Nothing wrong with silver) . When Dodge makes a comparable/ reliable truck we can talk
are you able to buy that grill
Who the fuck needs a fancy fucking interior? We have an old 1985 dodge ram 1 ton and it pulls great! Trucks are for hauling, if you want a fancy interior, go buy a mercedes
No one would buy this truck for hauling
Ok dumbass u aren't going to buy a new car without it having luxury interior in it. It's the way it is. Oh n the Mercedes doesn't have a pickup anymore n is way more luxurious than any other American made car
Nice review man keep up the good work
I like your tech info that others leaf out.
Good job.
I enjoy your detailed reviews. May I ask, what video camera are you using? It handles HDR very well. Also, what frame rate are you shooting for this video, 60P??? I like all trucks and happen to like the new Rebel. Thanks.
Please do a 2016 Ford Explorer Platinum vid.
+Doreen Pelletier That would be cool.
+Doreen Pelletier Why not just get the Explorer Sport? It has the same 3.5 Ecoboost and 4WD but it's about $10k cheaper. No amount of interior features is worth that. I'd pay extra for the Sport because of its performance boost over the Limited, but I'm not paying a ton of money for just features that people can do without. Less features means less weight so better performance and mileage, less initial cost and less to break.
Always buy a car with the highest performance but lowest features. Think about it, Ferrari's don't have all that convenience junk, but no one cares because they're fun to drive.
+snakesonaplane2 Because of the elegant and luxurious styling and the upgraded don't sound system. I'd probably get the sport though. I know what you mean
I just have to say great review man, awesome detail.
this ram is like a muscle truck but it is a strong truck the ram rebel has a hemi engine for off road and it looks fantastic I like how the way the exhuast sounds it sounds like a beast this truck cost $66.180
That is one awesome sounding truck.... This and the Tundra TRD are my favorite
this truck is 60+k in Hawaii. INSANE! no can do!
Nice. When you get the opportunity, please do an in depth review of the 2016 BMW 7 series. Thanks!
the snorkel hood has been available on the sport version of the ram 1500
One of my top 3 favorite trucks!
Hey Kyle, love your work as always keep it up!
Is there a reason why you separated the interior clips? I liked what you did on your last vid, when u put them together
+jeez3k This is how I always shoot my videos, I separate the portions into dedicated sections that focus on that specific area of the vehicle. Since I covered so many S-Class models, I meshed that video together as there was no need to cover every little nook and cranny. I don't do videos like that often, but that was a special case where it made sense and worked out pretty well.
+Saabkyle04 the air mode is that a modern verson what citroen ever had,with the BX CX and ds 21
+Saabkyle04 Thats fair enough. I´ve been watching your vids some while now, and will still do, but just thought i give you my take on it
1:01 that metal flex around the handle though
Man, that thing sounds good with just a factory setup.
Excellent presentation loaded with all you need to know about the truck, very comprehensive and a big jump in features compared to my 05 Dodge Ram Hemi. But that's technology for you, yet I love my Dodge Ram as it sits and in some respects cosmetically I like it better than the Rebel with the added chrome touches I put on mine. I'm not too keen on the bulbous front end of the Rebel, that should be reeled in a little and the hugh Rebel nameplate on the tailgate is over the top, circa "Power Wagon". I stripped the door badging off my truck as well as the tailgate, only leaving the SLT badge. I would do the same with the Rebel emblem in the back, it's gotta go and is an example of over doing it when less would make it better, at least in my humble opinion. Nice review though.
Looks agressive!
+Chasden Cole Yep
And cheap
Looks like something I can crush by leaning on it! :D
+TheJensXD to plastic... -__-
DUTCH 0UTL4W Ruthless aggression
people don't understand. Ram ACTUALLY makes the best off-road vehicle. but it's not the rebel. it's the power wagon
Really nice truck. Shame the grill is so ugly. Great review Kyle.
Do you by chance still have the saabkyle04 store at your dad's dealership?
You guys should see Combat t-98. Please, make a review on it.
This is an awesome truck. I definitely want one!
@saabkyle04 please do a Fird Edge Sport review. love you reviews. I'd will be great to hear your thoughts on that vehicle. thanks.
Seconding this request, if Kyle can get his hand on one of course :) The edge sport looks soooo cool.
I feel bad for the next generation of people who have to live with the RAMS instead of the gods that were the 80's 90's Dodge Rams with the TRUE Cummins engines that couldn't die.
In what way is the new cummins bad? My buddy bought a 2015(or 16 I don't remember) 3500 cummins and I see nothing to complain about. Pulls weight like it's nothing, sounds mean, huge anoints of torque, and still gets like 18mpg on highway. They're still great as cummins always is.
+Sheridantank 18 mpg for a 3500? That's great!!
+Sheridantank it does not last it will not last, an original Cummins will go for well over (and I've seen this) 630,000 miles without missing a lick they can be beaten to hell and back time and time and time again and they will keep kicking, they don't die. The new one's will pull don't get me wrong but the old one have a HELL of a lot longer life spam.
+Sheridantank and as far as mpg the old 90's cummins could get 15+ easily.
+Edson Bugatti The ones from the 90's usually got around 19-20, IIRC.
Another good video. This truck has my interest.
Raptor Fans Are laughing at this.... until they here the ferocious roar this beast makes
the gearbox it is not developed in collaboration with ZF, it is developed by ZF. Dodge/Ram has programed the gearbox for this engine, but that does not make a development collaboration.
Awesome video as always. The lines on this truck are a little odd. Nothing really flows together, especially the lines on the front fenders. Looks strange. Anyway, why are trucks so expensive? Isn't their purpose to be simple and cheap for moving stuff? Not even talking about this truck specifically. All trucks have become more expensive than they should be in my opinion. Does it have to do with what Jay talked about in the Lambo LM002 video and manufacturers are using it as an excuse to overprice trucks? I honestly have no idea and am asking a legitimate question. I get that trucks come fully equipped now but $50,000 for a truck seems like a lot.
+swSephy | Sim Racing There is cheap trucks, but they are super simple with plastic everywhere, cloth seats, rubber floors, and a white exterior. You pay a bunch more when luxuries are added
Great thorough review man, thanks.
I love my 2016 rebel!
Nice job with all your reviews. Wondering if you could do one on the dodge power wagon?
RAM 1500 Rebel is a pickup truck and history of RAM trucks
I watched this video a lot back then a few years ago
Best review hands down!
I don't know if you can do this car or not but could you do a video on a 1967 impala. that would be great because that is my favorite car
A 3 minute ad and I can't fucking skip it
Hey my father has that same truck except his doesn’t have all those features but it had air ride suspension
Ah, one more thing: rear load area, it should have electrically actuated shutters (totally black and not aluminium color) for bad weather and consumtion.
I would give this vehicle a 6 out of 10. As I'm very critical this is excellent score from me:)
What color are the dash gauge instrument lights for the above vehicle?? White? Orange? Green? or Blue?
Good looking colour on that truck.
That was a very good review. nice job.
I really like this ram. How much is it and where can you get it from?
