“But, but, but…full-sized rigs can’t overland!”
Love my HD rig (same color), and love this Rebel. Keep up the full-sized content!
Thanks for following along! We've got some more RAM content coming!
Power Wagon... lift, lockers, disconnect sway bar, winch, 6.4 HEMI, 6+ foot bed... Beast of an Overlander.
Amen.
or just stock. PW needs nothing from the factory and will outclass almost any full size truck
Yes it would be great but about 8mpg loaded down though
@@joeymaxwell2179 I try to travel light. I roll with Softopper on my PW and sleep in the bed. @ella5five
Yeah, but that price tag...
Chuckled at the 4runner joke. I just traded my 5th gen in for a rebel. Looking forward to more rebel vids!
All in good fun! And congrats on the new Rebel. We'll try to make more RAM vids.
I love that the determining factor of if you were overlanding or not was if you brought a skottle. 🤣
Exactly.
Okay, I do love your new RAM Rebel. Also, this is one heck of a great video! Way to keep it entertaining and fresh :)
The comic relief in this video made for a very entertaining infomercial.
Thanks for following along! We try to make it entertaining, yet informative!
Always appreciate your take on things - always good for a laugh!!
Thank you...from a Rebel owner
4th gen Tradesman 1500, 3" lift on 35" MT2's. Will eventually swap for a 4" to keep it practical. Truck bed tent with custom DIY platform. Too damn tall and too damn old to be climbing ladders to sleep. LOVE LOVE LOVE my Ram. Hung with the Jeep Creeps just fine through Uwharrie in NC. Thanks for sharing some full sized love!!
Got to love you guys. Outdoors, fireroasted dogs, adventure at it's best...
Thanks Jenny! Glad you weren't repulsed by the slo-mo hotdog eating! Cheers!
Long before overlanding became popular me an my girl would camp out of my work truck (f-350), a few years ago i bought a 2007 dodge 1500 with low miles, my setup, reg. cab, 8' bed w/shell, 4" lift w/34" tires, i had a professional crawl-thru installed (no leaks!) which leads to a pillow top mattress with a 2 person down bag, this leaves a couple of feet for my fridge/freezer (hard wired) and water storage an firewood, i just had a rhino rack installed with arb awning. This setup means we can stealth camp anywhere or hardcore camp in the high sierra, i like the roof top tent idea but around 8-10,000 feet we have serious thunder storms that hit without warning, even seen snow in july-august, this truck isn't for conquering mt. everest but it gets me to my fishing holes, some of which will challenge any 4x4 - from a old timer lol
Love that drone video angle super cool video.👍🏻
You guys are hilarious 😂😘😀🤩🤩 Love this set up and got dogs. We need a spoon challenge 🤩😜
Just got me a ram rebel looking forward to more ram videos
You can Overland anything! It is not about the rough terrain it's about getting out and doing something. I have a friend that has been Overlanding his Subaru for a long while now. So point is. Anything can be Overlanded you just have to know your limits and what you want in life.
Thanks for your comment and input. This video was more for the comedy and the slo-mo hotdog eating. Cheers!
Ram & Epic outdoors & Jeep check list . Awesome Ram
Thanks for following along! Cheers!
The rebel is so perfect, the only thing that I can’t stand about it is that there’s no front locker or a disconnecting sway bar, other than that, it’s the perfect truck
Rebel baby 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Sweeeeeet.
I have my 07 ram shorty decked out for overlanding, love my little ram.
Thanks for commenting and following along! Cheers!
Wow overlanding AND slo-mo hotdog eating! It doesn’t get better than that!
Man, 37s. Nice.
Thanks for following along! 37s just look right on a Rebel ;-)
Great video!
Thanks! Was fun!
Stave Lake.
Nice to see More BC vids
Thanks! We're headed south again and again for the next little while. We'll get back to BC in the summer ;-)
Love my Ram, it's almost the same build, I stayed with 35s on 17in rims. I will be out at the 2023 KOH.
Watched this just over the fire roasted hot dogs. haha Love it
Thanks for following along! Cheers from the team at EPIC!
Certified Overlanding. Skottle included. 🤣
Ha Ha!
Thanks to your video I am planning on putting the same fender flares on my 19 Rebel. Where did you get the black bolts and washers? Bushwhacker only has the stainless. Great video by the way
I think I need to come for a visit for some of these mods. We overland in my 2019 rebel and love it but could always step our game up. Was really hoping to see if you have an arb elements fridge/freezer set up in the bed of the truck. Thanks for sharing guys, hope to pass you on the trail sometime.
Thanks for your comment. We prefer the Dometic fridges because they are more square in shape. The ARB elements I had for 1 night before I sold it because the inside is stupidly designed. As for putting a fridge in the back, you just have to get a slide and then nutsert it to the bed ;-)
So badly wish I could of found a power wagon in the blue when I bought mine
Yeah, we love the Hydro Blue!
This shits dope!! 🔥🔥 I think it's time to get mine done 😎
Hawt Daum! Woot!
I didn't see an overlanding fridge..... clearly not overlanding!
I plan on outfitting my ram warlock one of these days. Hopefully I can bring it to you guys.
Sounds like a plan, we just worked on 2 Warlocks this week! They look really good properly lifted ;-)
The slow mo hot dog eating was amazing. 😂
Thank you. The whole video was just an excuse to see people eat hot dogs in slo-mo. Cheers!
@@EPIC-4WD Stangely Aroused 🤭
Hey great video sometimes i think of getting a Ram again but now i have a jeep jk, anyways the place you guys went was that Stave lake? How far did you go to get there?
I like the Rebel truck.
Could you run the same suspension and wheels on a 1500 eco diesel? should all still bolt up right?
I want to ask, have you changed the front and back gears? I have a 2023 Rebel 4x4, and I have an overland build on my truck. I get about 9 miles per gallon. It's because I couldn't regear the front and back ring and pinion. Currently, I have 3.92 gears, but I want to change them to 4.88. Do you know where to get those gears, or can you explain what I can do to improve my mileage?
That hot dog slo mo 😂 What wheels are those?
You can overland in anything.
can you make rebel a abetter truck? NO! but you can make it EPIC!
my tires are going to get high... muahaha
I so wanna hang out with you guys lol
I know - late to the party here, but have agreed for so long about the Rebels' (small-ish) shortcomings; no front locker, sway bar disconnect, etc., but i still bet that for the investment it hits most of the notes and usage requirements for *most people (talkin to you, mall crawlers). I just with that they would throw on a 'Rebel xtreme Off-road' package of some sort to upfit those as options or something, otherwise yea, we have to go to the PW.
Beautiful truck. I have an unpopular opinion… I ducking hate those wheels. 😅
If intake my truck to a shop, how much can I expect to replicate your lift/suspension and wheel/tire combo? I have a 2019 Ram Longhorn 4x4 and air suspension.
I just subscribed to your channel because of this video.
Awesome! Welcome to the party. Cheers!
@@EPIC-4WD I also had planned on having hotdogs for dinner before seeing this video, so it just reinforced my decision.
those rims are tough looking. i have a 15 Ram crew p.w. I normally sleep in the R.V. but im sure i could sleep in the back seat in a sleeping bag. i have sleept in the front seat layed back at a truck stop. leave the truck running with the heat on auto depending on the weather. you can tow bikes on a trailer and leave the rack on.
Depending on how much you carry with you if you get a camper could build a bed for the truck bed. Even have it raised a bit and build drawers under it and use back cab for storage and you’ll be super comfy. Cheers
a lot of people overland rams. power wagon is a beast
this truck is sooo perfect.. but if the wheels were like 17s the tire would look more beefy and looks even more aggressive on this sexy monster...
You are not wrong sir. Cheers from team EPIC!
you guys are out of control lol!!
Thank you for your concern. We'll kindly ask you to calm down please.
@@EPIC-4WD Don't you mean "we'll kindly ask you guys to calm down plz" lol
Funny, funny; but funny.
I overland a 5th gen v6 2wd lmao granted, I live in Florida but it gets the job done.
Y’all forgot the starbucks and hand pressed coffee!
Sorry - we'll do better next time!
The Gladeator is just as long as the RAM.
You gave us a walk around on the truck but left out the most important feature of this video it's whole reason for being, what brand hot dogs and beef or pork
I had my Rebel outfitted but ended up taking the gear off and moving it to a small overland trailer I built that I can tow with my jeep. I was tired of destroying my mpg in my Ram when I wasn't using it every day. So now I have a small trailer and now I have my Rebel up for sale.
Overlanding ... Is that what we call camping now?
i am in bc too, where are you guys offroading in this video? the campsite?
This was just stave lake mud flats I believe. A few years ago now. Cheers from the team at EPIC!
I have the exact same truck and I'd love to customize it the exact same way! Thanks for the video, do you guys have a follow up on how the truck is holding up?
check out our new video posted today - RAM Rebel GT. More RAM videos coming soon ;-)
@@EPIC-4WD I wish you guys were closer to Missouri in the United States. I’d send my truck to you guys to see if you can beef it up to those specs 😂. I will check it out!
Where is that place ?
Would you be able to give me a measurement of truck lifted.
Okay, so the spoon comment was awesome but WTF , no skottle? Good thing TSTN had your back on that. Glad to see you fed him but I was told not to feed the animals. Sorry, scratch that last comment. Don't want an unhappy Ginger when it's spooner time.
You guys ever do a Nissan Titan pro 4x build?
Nope. We only work on Jeep JL, Jeep GT and RAM1500/3500 Late Model.
YEAH WRONG RAM. THE POWER WAGON IS THE ONLY ONE TO OVERLAND IN . Bigger brakes 44 diffs front and back and the main reason. solid axel up front
4Runner owner confirmed.
Excellent. Thank you for standing up to be counted sir.
Just a heads up the exhaust manifold studs will break on this truck. Mine broke at 40000 my fathers broke at 30000.
It's only one stud on the passenger side closest to the cab that beaks and it does not effect anything. My 2015 Ram has a broken stud and it just seals up after the engine warms up. I know guys with 200k plus that never fixed it. It does not effect performance or fuel economy. Mine has 80k on it now.
Mine just hit 80k and is fine
Hold on, the first dude didn’t put any mustard on his hot dog 🌭 the disrespect.
It's blasphemy! The nerve!
Whats a "scottle?"
nothing that couldn't be done in a stock truck. show more rocks!
Up next, can you eat food with a fork? Let's find out
Thank you for giving us the idea for our next video lol! ;-)
@@EPIC-4WD I genuinely like your channel but some things about the overland community just erk me like obsessing over which vehicle is best or what over priced gear to buy. Just keep it simple and focus on getting out and enjoying yourself. It's become a little pretentious, but I get it you have to make videos that people will watch and apparently its nitpicking stuff like this.
I’m so confused to what overlanding is. Is it a 10k kilometer trip from Cape Town to Tunis or is it an hour long trip to grill hot dogs? Help!
it's a buzzword. nothing more or less.
We have no idea. LOL!
I can’t believe you guys are so unprepared without the skottle. What shame.
A ram 1500 will drive on dirt. It will be limited tho. It’s a big vehicle with weak axles. An HD will ride rougher but have more payload for gear and stronger components to take a beating for it’s similar size I’d move to HD. Otherwise a smaller vehicle like a wrangler is better for over landing. Everyone’s situation is different and needs should dictate the vehicle chosen. I will say I took my 19 ram 1500 on back country fire roads and it was a nice ride, given the terrain. My needs have me in a 250 7.3 now. The trailer was very taxing on the 1500 and I wanted to carry more, safer, and have a stronger platform. A Dana 60 and M275 is a lot stronger…
Thanks for sharing your experiences. Appreciated. This video was mostly tongue-in-cheek, but yes a RAM will do the job in most situations ;-)
Kosher hotdogs?
Ok fine… Ill trade my 2020 ram 1500 SLT for the shiny blue beast.
Too late! She sold in days. However, we can certainly build you another one ;-)
Ketchup on a hot dog! Really
ruclips.net/video/ZpZ_fakwSwc/видео.html
Yeah, what kind of psycho puts ketchup on a hot dog?
stock canyon can do that kek
Any vehicle with wheels can "overland". Today's trend is just glamping.
Yep - thus the point of the dripping sarcasm ;-)
I hate to burst your bubble but we do that with 20 year old dodge caravans in northern ontario. i did not see any real overlanding. waste of 75000.
I hate to burst your bubble - the video was pure fun and sarcasm lol. Cheers!
Of coarse a full size rig can overland but would you really want to be in a top of the unreliable list truck year after year in the middle of nowhere? No thanks. Lots of wasted money on that Fiat.
The awards and market share say different bud, lol.
@@jchirschfeld1101 sales and marketing has nothing to do with reliability, bud :)
@@Deatomizer Also, we went from 3rd to 2nd in market share, so there must be something happening. And I don't see any other company winning Truck of the Year for 3 years in a row...
@@jchirschfeld1101 still means zero when it come to reliability.
@@Deatomizer You didn't answer my question. If you have no proof, and are just an angry little troll, just say so.
um what part of the video was even off road? lol if youre going to talk a big game how about you actually test the vehicle.... a 2wd toyota tercel could of made it.
We think you missed the sarcasm lol. ha ha.
nothing like watching two glizzy gobblers lol great video
do you think the 6" lift is to much for the RAM?!?! or will a 3.5" lift work well enough.
Lol love you guys trolling the overland crowd, they can be quite pretentious which is a shame because this is something more people should be encouraged to do.
I overland a 2020 Ram Warlock. @rockiesoverlanding
Just got me a ram rebel looking forward to more ram videos
We have more planned - stay tuned!
