- ( www.TFLtruck.com ) The 2015 Ram 1500 Rebel Crew Cab 4X4 Pickup truck is a tough and rugged off-road machine but so it the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor. In this TFLtruck matchup comparison video we drive both trucks to almost 14,000 feet above sea level in the Rocky Mountains to see which one is the off-road champion light duty pickup of the world.

This is not a test for trucks. Give the trucks to teenagers at an offroad park for the weekend, that would be a test...
Exactly !
yeah I'd love that!! Pick me an my friends, eh... lol
so the one that crashes into a wall first loses?
Ogre Doug why, cuz teenagers randomly crash trucks into walls?
Josh S uhh actually teenagers are pretty terrible drivers. Can't test it if you break it
when the rebel "struggled" it wasnt the trucks more so the driver didnt pick a good line
yea also he wasnt using the throttle correctly
People need to stop fighting about what truck is better who cares buy what ever you want.
Justin Halsey
Obviously people interested in buying a truck would like to know which is a better value and/or more off-road capable.
Raptor
Rebel
Dodge trx now baby but before I’d take a gladiator and bud a v8 in it any day
Actually I’d rather a gladiator with the hellcat v8 over the trx
@@peter2213 cool truck. But my concern is how many trails could one find with a truck 8" wider than a normal truck.
On 3:58 we can see that the fuel tank from the Rebel is unprotected. And that in an offraod truck that's unbeliefable. Please excuse my bad englisch i'm from Germany.
+654OTO456 That's a really good catch and you're English is fine.
They have a protection package which includes skid plates for some reason
+654OTO456 one of the most unsafe vehicles out there
+drunkpolak wontreply I...I can't tell if you're joking.
+drunkpolak wontreply But your English isn't. Your comment should read: "That's a really good catch and YOUR English is fine."
I really do not understand this comparison.... several interviews with Ram CEO and Engineers stated that it is not a competitor to the Raptor and that if you wanted a off-road capable ram then you need to go through mopar to get the ram runner or buy a power wagon; even in one of your episodes you stated something along that line in regards to it being more of a FX4 competitor... Look at the rebel, its a Ram 1500 with a new interior/grill (both cosmetic) and air ride suspension; the raptor is a pre-runner, not even a close comparison. I think it would be much more competitive to compare it to a ram runner or a power wagon.
Agreed but at the Detroit debut of the truck they previewed it with a video of the Rebel desert running like a Raptor. Perhaps a mixed message or perhaps Ram knows that there is an opportunity to sell the Rebel to the off road buyer while the Raptor is out of the market. BTW: this truck screams off-road with every bit of Ram Rebel DNA. We feel this is a fair comparison.
Fair Enough, I test drove a rebel last week up here in Canada and I really liked it; It was just city driving but a nice truck none the less. I already have a offroad truck all done up (1992 W250 Dodge Cummins) So im gonna get the new cummins instead and keep in on the pavement; great on fuel, extremely reliable, and plenty of power.
if you search the raptor vs. ram runner on here (CZcams) they have a video its 2 or 3 yes old, but accurate. raptor won, the runner is ugly to me, its meant to live in the desert, not an everyday vehicle to me
+1staircavalry
the ram runner was best at high speed whoops( much faster than the raptor) . the raptor was more street friendly and more predictable offroad. making it the best all around truck.
+DGETHIS01 your rite, I cant say no more
I think this is an unfair comparison. The Rebel should be compared to the FX4, and the Raptor to the 2500 Power Wagon. Then it would be way more fair.
If we did that we have no doubt that some would complain that we are comparing a light duty truck to a heavy duty truck.
The Fast Lane Truck I get your point, but I still disagree. I like how you guys respond quickly to comments now, thanks!
+The Fast Lane Truck Don't even have to do a video to know how that one ends: The Raptor is the desert racing stallion and the Power Wagon is 100% bull ox - a real beast of a truck. Both are darn good at what they do!
+Ivan Matz
I don't know, the Rebel did pretty well compared to the Raptor and was in the same ball park price wise.
Depending on packaging I am sure you can get an FX4 in the range too, but without knowing what they had on that Rebel it's hard to build it competitively
highjix A 2015 Raptor would be more expensive than the one they have I think. They don't have every option of the Rebel, as you can tell from the previous video.
The point isn't comparing by price, but by size and capability, I believe.
I can tell right away you like fords.
Who?
I have a 2016 ram rebel and honestly it is a great truck it's comfy for driving around town or on the high way but has the ability to take you out and around the dirt roads!
The Rebel doesn't have any form of differential lock?! I find that surprising, even my Honda Pilot has a locker on the rear half shafts... I feel like Ram missed a big opportunity there
A pilot has a locker?
Excellent video. Your efforts to be fair and honest are noticed and appreciated.I think it would be cool to see some "Underdog vs Topdog" videos. For example: PRO4X Xterra vs. TRD PRO 4Runner.
Great idea and will do. Thanks for the kind words!
My dad actually just bought the Ram Rebel 4 weeks ago at out local Dodge dealership. Overall the truck is very nice. I love the "tred" fabric interior look. Another thing is the off road mode. Amazing for clearing boulders or brushes out in the desert. Overall I give it a 8/10.
great video guys. I just purchased a 2012 raptor in September and am loving it. haven't been able to test it other than a small but steep hill while tires were caked in georgia clay, locked the rear diff in 4x4 low and it crawled right up it.
you can't really compare them, the raptor was specifically designed for off road racing, while the rebel is just another trim level with minimal upgrades
As usual FORD WINS
Ram even said when they released the Rebel it was not a Raptor competitor.... so this review is apples to oranges. But still this is the first review I've seen yet with the Rebel, so thumbs up!
The parts of the trail that I saw, I did that type of trail in Colorado a couple of weeks ago. I have a 2003 Ford Ranger lifted with 33 BFG all terrian mud and snow. I did not even need to put it in 4wd...
power wagon vs raptor
Again......the music. Can we just hear the trucks run ?
+The Positive Commenter Guy Yes, both the Raptor's 6.2 and the Hemi are both amazing sounding engines.
minus the grille and massive ram badge on the tailgate the rebel looks sick, cant wait to see it go up against the 2017 raptor
Roman, the quality of your videos has really increased over the years. Happy to see this. Keep on truckin
I agree, it should have been compared to the FX4. - Also, you are waaaaaaaaaaaay to in love with the Raptor to have an opinion... Sorry, but it's true. - lol
But there both near the same price..
+HpG SkateZ I'm not questioning / arguing the price of the vehicle. I'm highlighting the purpose behind building it. The Raptor is a purpose-built vehicle. if it is going to be compared with anything, it should be against another vehicle that was also purpose-built. The Rebel is nothing more than an "appearance package" with some added goodies.
- Raptor vs Power Wagon
- FX4 vs Rebel
+Paul Anderson oh okay I can see your POV from this situation
☺
Plus the starting price of the Ram Rebel is around 44K making it much more affordable than the Raptor. They loaded it up to match the Raptors price but really its mostly interior stuff. Which btw, the Ram has a MUCH better interior than the Ford.
The Italians added the mustache look to the grill of the Ram because it reminds them of their mothers :-)
LMAO!!!
The two off-road "gems" in this video, are the one you heard and the one you didn't...1) the one you heard: Roman stated, "As slow as possible, but as fast as necessary" this is an off-roader's mantra. Roman, you just earned huge points with me.2) the one you didn't: what tire pressures were used? Highway pressure? Come on, at least air down to 15 -20 p.s.i for a trip like this. Any off-roader will tell you that airing down makes a dramatic improvement in traction and ride quality.
the ram rebel could have been such a cool tuck but that grill is just UUUUUUUGAAALY
Undisputed light duty pick-up, ya right. Since when was the Raptor ever up against a 2015 Tacoma TRD Pro. The Pro can even come with a factory supercharger that out accelerates the Raptor, it has more ground clearance and a better approach angle and its slightly smaller for those tight trails and its half the price. Has a longer bed length and carries more payload on less fuel and turns and parks easier.
+budcargeorge Agreed, that would be a real match up. Lighter too.
I know they don't really compete but it would be interesting to see a comparison with the new Tacoma Trd
+Adam Miller Or the Tundra, since it's Toyota's full size.
+Adam Miller I'd be willing to say that the Tacoma should be included in this too. At the price the top Off-Road Tacoma is offer, it competes with the full size.
You seriously consider Tacoma being a truck?
+PF Real Estate Group you're an idiot to even say that, Tacomas gotta be one of if not the best trucks ever made, from an overall stand point to on and off road performance , to resale value, to durability. these trucks last forever
+mickeysgv Wrong. No constraction company have those. You'll see them mainly on highways on street tires. Almost non existent Diesel engines make them more like SUV territory than being in truck territory.
This guy is in love with fords.
I love these road trips from TFL, Great work,Excellent review.
The Rebel isn't supposed to compete with the Raptor. That's what the Ram Runner and Power Wagon is for. The Power Wagon absolutely rapes the Raptor as a pure off roader, and the Ram Runner absolutely rapes the Raptor as a pure pre runner, so why do people think the Raptor is so good? Am I missing something?
and my EcoBeast rapes all of that.. especially at almost 14,000 ft.. lol.
Also, yes you are missing alot.. you are defending dodge of all garbage.
ram runner doesn't rape the raptor, go watch motor trends head to head
NovaMan 350 you're probably the biggest dodge fanboy dumbass on this planet. pull the stick out your ass. you have no idea what you're talking bout
The Power Wagon is a better truck though its in another class. The Ram Rebel is a much nicer truck interior wise. No contest. Its a little better on the street but that hurts it off road a bit. Its just up to which truck you prefer. The Ram isn't garbage, thats blind ignorance.
I would choose the raptor.
Both the Ford and the Dodge are great off-road trucks, I wish you did this with the TRD Pro Tundra as-well. Then bring a GMC/Chevy up here so we can watch bumpers fall off and things break!
The fact that everyone wants to compare X vehicle against the Raptor says it all... It is a benchmark for the industry and no matter what way you slice it the Raptor is one hell of a engineered off road machine. When everyone else was struggling to get through the bailout Ford dropped this bombshell and it took off like mad!
The next challenge for the raptor should be against Mike Ditka and the 1985 Chicago Bears..........I say the winner would be ........Ditka!
The Bears
+The Fast Lane Truck You didn't say it right! You were supposed to say: Daaa Bears da Bears da Bears da Bears da Bears!! Come on, get it together TFL.
whats the difference between marty mcfly and a bears fan? marty mcfly eventually stopped going back to 1985! Go Pack Go!
+Brandon Dachelet I had a really good laugh at that one.
Raptor definitely seemed the better truck.
I did want to just point out, the hood does have a functional purpose. the passenger side nostril, has a vent hole that goes into the engine bay, that if you choose to add a K and N cold air intake, it will merry up without modification.
I gotta say. . you guys have great jobs! LOL
awesome vid, i think as always though these comparisons come down to brand loyalty and just splitting hairs over hp, mpg, options, price etc. they are both awesome vehicles
Love the show but I think that hill were the real slipped and the raptor walked up it the raptor is somthing like 6 inches wider
if you look at the video you can see the ram was on a different part of the road which caused it to lose tractionl.
The guy driving the Rebel has no idea how to use the traction aid. The Rebel didn't struggle, the driver did.
+Traxxasrcbros Looks like the Rebel also lacks a locker, a pretty big omission given that even the 20 grand cheaper Cherokee Trailhawk has a rear locker and would have easily walked up that section.
+Traxxasrcbros The raptor has a rear locker AND something Roman continues to miss is the fact that the Raptor has a Torsen torque biasing front differential. The Raptor is purpose built - the Rebel was a nice try but fails to really have any substantial off road goodies.
+Kyle Quitter roman also didn't state that in that situation the width of the raptor helped but the rebel was built to be pretty much a more offroas capable version of the light duty ram although it'd probably be cheaper just to buy a ram trademan and use the left over money to make it off road capable the ford raptor is good at what it does but they were built for different purposes
It's crazy how these raptors hold their value! MSRP as listed in the video. Many of them are still listed privately used for close to msrp!
wow, one of your best video so far , i really appreciated, thank you for bringing us so much amazing content
Ford on top, as always. GG Dodge see ya next year
I would choose the Rebel. Not only because I'm a Mopar guy, but it is a more practical truck and rides better on the road
Mopar is for chicks who love having their truck on the shop.
I always loved the Ford Raptor
A great illustration of locked vs. open diffs. Maybe FCA will see this, and do the right thing by installing a rear locker on the Rebel
Lets just call it like it is. The Raptor is overall better lol
i dont think its is and also do yall really just want to go up with the hill no problem it wouldnt be near as fun would it???
SonOfMarvin ya also 20k more lol I’ll take the rebel and throw 20 k in upgrades than well see
It's almost the exact same price... idk what you're talking about
Everyone says Ford is a POS. Dodge is even worst
Haha yeah the msrp, but that is not the actual price it will leave the stealership for...Looking at 70k for a Raptor here in NC if you can find one...which is why I went and bought the Rebel.
The front grill on the Ram Rebel is uGLy as sin!
I love dodge trucks... that being said I would still pick the rapture because it's unmatched in its class. I'd love to see tracks on it
"Raptor"
I just bought a 2018 Rebel so I'm happy just see it made it to the top of the world! Lol
The rebel looks kinda cheap on the exterior. It looks like they took an old model, redid the inside, and put some extra plastic bits on the exterior.
+Rawr “Tato” McRawr That's pretty much what they did lol. It's just a ram truck with bolt on parts.
***** It's a Dodge Ram.
+ColonelRadec246 I own a new ram and if you ask me its a pos dodge
Idk what you're talking about. The Raptor's interior looks cheap and plasticky while the Rebel had a nicely done, stitched interior. The exterior looks cheap because of it's boring color. Make the RAM red and it won't look cheap.
+Dcc357 I can make a turd look like a Christmas tree, doesn't make it a Christmas tree. It looks like a Dodge, runs like a Dodge, and is built by Chrysler. It's still a pos Dodge.
I'm not impressed. I drive through terrain worse than this in my 04 Mitsubishi Endeavor.
I can't wait for 2017 raptor vids
soft, long travel suspension is perfect for off-road, best way to maintain tire contact with the ground
Ford is better period
the ram rebel looks way better
All you need to know of this comparison can be summed up at 10:31
I think the biggest take away here is that most everyone agrees the rebel is pretty much an appearance package. But it also did very well right next to a raptor while doing some light off roading. So if you're not Baja racing your $50k truck, you could get away with having a regular ram 1500 in the trim of your liking.
The rebel compares with the f-150 or the fx4 not the raptor !
fx4 is just an appearance package I tell this to my customers all the time it's a regular 4x4 so it does not compare.
+Edwin Acevedo So wrong...
Daniel Bell I am not wrong it has the same suspension just more improved higher ground clearance and limited slip but other than that it's just more appearance not to drastic don't tell me I sell these everyday and your just one of those annoying know it all customer
Edwin Acevedo "The 2015 Ford F150 FX4 package begins on the outside with a unique FX4 logo on the rear of the bedside but that is the only aesthetic aspect of the new FX4 package. What matters with the 2015 F150 FX4 package is that it includes Hill Descent Control, an electronic locking rear axle, off road tuned shock absorbers and underbody skid plates..."
Yes, I am an annoying know it all customer, because I actually take the time to research what I'm talking about. I'll take a stab and say you're a crappy salesman because you don't know shit about what you're trying to sell.
www.torquenews.com/106/closer-look-2015-ford-f150-fx4-details
Daniel Bell I'm a shitty salesman just because I don't go I to detail of every single difference doesn't mean I'm shitty I'm a sales manager at the end of the day we screw over people like you and I go home with a 16,000 check. So idc
if dodge does decide to make the Ram Rebel TRX im more then positive it would rape the raptor in everyway!!!
TEXASBOYZ 4069 no the new raptor will rape the rebel TRX if Dodge actually makes it which they won't. But even if they do build the rebel TRX it won't be anything like the concept.
The Rebel isn't the Ram Baja Ready truck. The RamRunner is. Ford has even called it the Raptor killer. It's a customer order truck with the Mopar 6.4 Lt and the Torqueflite 8-speed. The Rebel is the Ram version of the FX4
Ford just makes one truck, the raptor, yet it is able to beat both the runner and rebel, even though ram makes two trucks made specifically for certain terrains. I thunk that the raptor is a remarkable truck to be able to win in two categories where as both rams lost in each of their own categories. This was a completely fair video.
this guy seems like a guy who has a little Asian wife
Your mom looks like have a Asian dad.
+Max Zhang ...lol you idiot...go be unusually respectful to someone who cares.
both trucks for spoiled soccer moms!
if you think about it, do a truck really need all that technology it has nowadays. it has tech stuff like a Lexus...luxury soccers mom vehicle
buy what you want, being a soccer mom isn't an insult
+Ogre Doug if your a man u must drive a prius, gay, or just dumb as hell
1staircavalry 2014 f150 fx4 crew cab appearance package, married with 2 kids. It's *you're by the way smart guy
+Ogre Doug Ay pal, I was describing the truck and comparing it. so stop getting butt hurt when I say "soccer mom"
Haha, Nice to "see" Roman in vids again.
A view from down the mountain up towards the truck ( out towards the right and down in this case ) would show the accent angle / and would be quite impressive for those whom have never lived in the Rockies and for those who doubt what they're seeing is a truly steep, hard pan, loose road.
Awesome review Roman! Becoming a big fan of FLT! Your helping me to build my off-road bucket list!
Go Ford!
Go Raptor!
Go USA!!
Correction: Colorado has at least 53 14ers by the strictest definition. Many people count up to 58 based on a slightly looser criteria.
When the Rebel got "stuck" it was because whoever was driving took a poor line. Honestly for a truck that wasn't designed to compete with the Raptor, it did a pretty damn good job. Don't own either. But I think I would probably buy the Rebel.
Most of the people who talk here even had one of those, so don't think you know more just for having a Ford Topaz or a Dodge Neon ¬¬
maybe some more aggressive tires could help both the vehicles get thru those hard to get thru places.. also the ford raptor has a video in motion feature, which allows the user to see whats behind the truck while driving, on screen thru the rear view camera.. and plus the Sirius Xm feature lets the user see weather updates, gas prices, a map for migrating anywhere you want to go too, movie listings, and post-results for sporting games.. with that being said I would have to say the Raptor is only ahead of its time, until a newer and more well thought of design truck comes out and overcomes its authority. meanwhile, I love the 6.2L V8.. just an opinion of mine.
Ram Rebel's competitor is the FX4! this video's not fair
This test is all about traction! and I think in order to compare you should at least have the same tires on each truck!
Now it's time for Raptor VS Tundra TRD PRO
I think they already made of video of it in their chanel. If I remember I think it scrap to much when going over rock's
Awesome video Roman Ford has the pick up segment by the tail
Nice and good trucks, nice scenery and good show.
I would rather have the RAM. They are close enough on performance for me but the utility of the RAM's bed with the RAM boxes is really a great option.
This is a perfect comparison. People just dislike Ford for whatever reason yet it is still the best and most innovative
+Bodybuilder X yes I don't get it almost all reviews of ford vs something else ford wins they are such great vehicles I don't get why people hate them they are tanks don't get me wrong the other vehicles are great capable vehicles but not as good as ford there probably just to poor to buy fords so the go for cheaper trucks now I'm no rich kid but I love fords!!!
+Monkey Dudes fords are cheap af. My dad has atleast had to have bought 12 fords in the past 2 months and they ALL break down, I'm talking raptors, and they all break down. And all this is from just using it to get to work and back. Ford sucks Arse. He's lucky that his dealer refunded him 12 times.
+James Lynam lmao I highly doubt your dad had to go through 12 raptors. That's assuming that dealership had 12 raptors on the lot. Yea not buying it.
FORD I suspect gleamed very advanced Traction Control software knowledge/algorithms during the time they owned Land Rover and have applied it across their product line. I remember over a decade ago Ford engineers stating they can "guess" what type of deforming service (mud,snow,sand) a vehicle is on by the rate of wheel spin/slippage and modulate traction control in real time to maintain forward momentum.
Quick facts
Webster Pass, elevation 12,103 ft, is a mountain pass that crosses the Continental Divide in the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains of Colorado in the United States.(Wikipedia)
Elevation:12,103′
Range:Front Range
Not exactly "Almost 14000ft"...
2 bad ass trucks and a great comparison. I'm a Dodge guy but I love the competition between the big 3. Where is Chevy,Nissan and Toyota's entries into this off road segment? I know there is the z71, PRO-4X and TRD but they aren't in the same class as the Raptor, Rebel and Power Wagon.
the fact that a dodge can even be compared to the ford off road is huge accomplishment...I was truly blown away when I realized that the f series is actually way better off road than a jeep...my buddy put a locker in his girl friends brand new wrangler and had to get towed through the tough stuff by a stock f350 dually not once but like 4 times
Fiat is marketing the Rebel as a Raptor-like truck so I think it's a pretty fair comparison. What makes the Raptor's win over the Rebel special is the fact that the Ford has been pretty much unchanged in 5 years (other than the Torsen front diff it got a couple years ago). So we're pitting a 5-year-old truck against a brand new one and just as everyone expected, the Raptor is still king.
Like Roman mentioned, Fiat does have the Power Wagon which is an AWESOME off-road truck, but it's a HD truck meant for a different purpose (more of a dedicated rock crawler). In that regard, Fiat has a better off-road HEAVY-DUTY truck than Ford.
I can't wait for the 2nd gen Raptor to hit lots next year. Something very special is coming... :-)
Love that Raptor -- I hope Ford does end up making Broncos again. I'm getting fed up with Jeep taking all the glory simply because they don't have any competition in the segment at the given moment.
Reading the comments was a waste of time. Doesn't matter what brand you prefer, there will always be hate. I'll stick with my 80 Powerwagon and 99 1500 beater go to work truck. The 80 Clubcab has a 360, 4 spd and Suregrip rear Diff. It's two tone, brown and tan. Ugly as sin to most. It even has a manual choke. Most posters don't have a clue what that is. I love it, torn up bench seat, only option is a cargo light. Owned it since 02, left my hands twice. Wont let it leave again
this basically a comparison between locked and open differentials, that's the only reason the raptor didn't lose traction over the same area that the rebel did. If they chose a model of the rebel that had a locker, and I know they sell one because I own a 1500, then it would've been a much more fair comparison.
I have 2 4x4s , a 1978 Dodge Ramcharger and a 1982 Dodge W 150 Power Ram . Total investment for both rigs is under $6,000 , although more is coming as I can afford it . Either of my trucks will handle these levels of trails . Of course the drivers would have to know how to drive off road as my trucks don't have electronic big brothers on board to protect the operators from their own stupidity . I guess a market exist for these trucks, but it seems to me that the only place I ever see these $50,000+ trucks off road is on you tube in shows like this.
I could be wrong, but wouldn’t the Raptor be more in its element if they were driving 50mph across a rocky and bumpy desert? It’s meant to be a pre runner, woop hitting, soft landing machine! That said, I’d imagine this is somewhat of a fair comparison to what normal, everyday usage would be with a truck. So I’d say it’s fair! Now if they were trying to get the Rebel going 50 mph and hit a jump in the desert to let it land and Grenade the fuel cell, that would be an unfair comparison haha
This was a comparison of two dissimilar trucks. The Ram is not meant to compete with Raptor but did hold it's own. I've owned several fords and they are money pits. Stupid stuff breaks or goes wrong and they are difficult to diagnose. Not to mention, the parts are expensive. I switched to Dodge a few years ago and have had great luck. Just general maintenance and the truck has never been in for warranty work. My last Ford was at the dealer numerous times for things that just shouldn't go wrong with a new truck. The warranty ran out and I got rid of the ford. Best decision I've ever made.Next test you do, put the raptor up against a power wagon. It will kick the Raptor to the curb. How much did Ford pay you to make this video.
The Raptor is NOT wider "to make room for the shock absorbers". To get long travel required a longer suspension arm. The mounting point was not changed, so the truck had to be wider.
Still strange he started following the Raptor ,but when it got real he put the Rebel ahead to smooth the way.,I love it when he says he did it but had to work at it.
He should have just used a bull doiser to make way for the Raptor.
can i drink what ur drinking?
now i still think the raptor is the best light duty offroad truck i like the desert style look from the front and i all so like the style and offroad compatibility
i would love both trucks but the dodge is the normal ram will pretty badges giving the ford more of an advantage. To me one of the big advantages the ford has is weight, being that it was designed for off-road a large amount of weight has been removed. I really hope dodge comes out with the rebel TRX and then we will see what the two new trucks can do. Cant wait great vid.
Awesome! Great comparison! Will we see a muddy/snowy test for the Rebel
TFL needs to do a Power Wagon vs. Raptor video
I'm liking these video's a lot more. Love to see you guy's still have the raptor. I kinda knew the raptor would do better because it's been tested since 2009, so ford just had more time to improve that truck. But I do have to say the rebel did one hell of a job, just need's some more clearance, and a winch along with bigger tires like the raptor and power wagon to get over rocks better and tackle terrain better so it doesn't slip like it did. Other wise great review!!!!
never heard of a ram rebel.. but I know the raptor n when I see it on road
This is extremely biased, you are to in love with that fat raptor. just don't do shit if you are always going to favor it
Next time do the Raptor vs power wagon please. Thanks guys!!
When the trucks drive over the camera, and you have the under side view of the suspension, check out the difference in the size of the front lower control arms. The Fords are huge and full, where the Ram's are much smaller, especially the rear arm of the A-Arm and are more open. The Ford could obviously take a lot more abuse.
I wish I could try my truck on that trail. Trails in the south are all mud and sometimes I just want to go trail crawling
Can't wait for the new raptor
