I've had my '25 Rebel now for almost 2 months and I love this truck! Instead of listing what I love about it, I'm going to list what I hate about it. This is in no particular order. 1. I have NEVER gotten the mileage that it say's on the window sticker. I know it's estimated but 17 city? I'm lucky if I get 13mpg, many times I get 12mpg. Highway? The best I've gotten is 15mpg. Combined? My best was 17mpg. That's with me putting in 93 octane and driving like grandpa, not towing or hauling either. I didn't buy this truck expecting great gas mileage with the bigger tires and 392 gears in the rear but atleast come close to what it say's on the window sticker. 2. The passenger screen is worthless and is a big waste. The only way the passenger can listen to anything is if they are wearing earbuds that are connected via blue tooth to the truck. 3. The two screens (radio and passenger) are very easily scratched. Do yourself a big favor and buy a screen protector from Amazon and install them as soon as possible. I learned the hard way on my Jeep Grand Cherokee that sliding your fingers across the screen easily scratches the screen. It's better to scratch the screen protectors than the radio/passenger screen. It's alot cheaper to replace the screen protectors then the radio/passenger screen. 4. The electronics are VERY buggy. If you listen to music with a memory stick/flash drive using the many usb ports, when you park the truck for the night, what ever number song it left off at the night before, when you get in the truck the next day, it's almost certain to be back at song #1. I've tried every setting possible to make sure they aren't on repeat or replay from the beginning and 99% of the time the first start up for the day, the song that will play and start at is song #1. 5. More electronic bugs! Adding something to your favorites (weather, camera angles, Alexa, AM/FM, USB 1, 2, 3, etc) saves when you save it to your favorites but once again, the first start up the next day, your favorites will have cleared and you'll have to re-save them again. 6. No sound from the engine while driving. It's so quiet, you'll be thinking you're driving an electric car unless you stomp on the gas pedal. Then there goes your gas mileage. 7. Exhaust sounds like a vacuum cleaner! When you start the truck for the first time for the day, stand behind the truck and start it using the key fob. You'll be thinking you turned on your vacuum cleaner instead of your truck. 8. No oil dipstick. You have to rely on a digital gauge on the instrument panel. 9. No L.E.D. lighting. You would think that an $80,000 truck (mine was $81,450 to be exact) it would have L.E.D. head and tail lights. Nope, regular bulbs. But I do have an L.E.D. rear backup light. 10. Two items listed on the window sticker as being part of a package aren't installed. EVERY 2025 Ram Rebel with the Level 2 Equipment Package is supposed to have animated front and rear lighting. This is lighting that lights sort of a sequential lighting that starts lighting from the top and goes down to the bottom everytime you open or lock your doors. It's supposed to have front and rear sequential turn signals when you turn on your turn signal also. Did I buy this truck because of this feature? No. But don't list it as having it on the window sticker as being part of the Rebel Level 2 Equipment Package if you aren't going to install it. These are my 10 dislike's about the truck, to someone else, they might not care about any of these but I do. Would these 10 things stop me from buying this truck again? No. I love this truck and would certainly buy it again.
Thanks!
Ram without a V8 is like going to McDonald's and they no selling their French fries... Wow.. Is this the end?
Inline 6, $81K? See ya!
Wow, I can't believe the actually got rid of the Hemi
Only about $25k-30k too much. They will be some great decorations on dealer lots
Have started looking at a ram because of the good discounts available and you post a review, perfect timing!
Loved the review and the truck. Keep up the good work!
I had to replay the part where Evie was talking about “whizz” and “bang.” I thought she was talking about “Ram” and “box” and realized that her comments would have worked just as well…
I've always wanted a Ram, but the really inconsistent reliability reports always kept me away. Wish they could just fix that part. Until then, driving my own truck and side eyeing every Ram I see.
I’m not gonna lie, I was waiting on a family review of the TRX! Now that would be a thrilling family review indeed! Lol! But all in all, an excellent review indeed Muzio Family! Oh and on a side note, kiddo's role in the "Flying Eyes" promo was absolutely adorable!!!
When I see children referencing classic Simpsons... I know the parenting is going well, and the world's future is going to be alright 👍
Buying a car for 60k in this economy is something I won't understand.
A review that didn’t mention the hatred over it not having a v8…. That’s different
The grill and lights look cheaper than the previous generation and the new 6 cylinder seems to have WORSE mpg than the old hemi.
I have a 21 rebel with all these upgrades plus I have the split tailgate, rambox, digital rearview mirror, and 33 gallon tank. I bought it used last year because I wanted a V8 and the new models aren’t offered and the tundra is also 6 cylinder only. I live in AZ and go north to the mountains and go out in the desert so I love my rebel with all the upgrades. My wife doesn’t prefer to drive because of the size as well but she does feel very safe.
Hey love your videos, You guys should review the Lincoln Aviator 20-24, I’ve heard some great things.
Wow it’s more expensive than CT .. truly ice age is over
Too many complaints as a family ,get a Prius and you will be fine 😂
