The standard 6.4-liter V8 in the Rebel makes 410 horsepower and 429 pound-feet, while the optional turbodiesel 6.7-liter inline-six produces a healthy 370 hp and 850 lb-ft. Like the P-W, the Rebel comes only in a crew cab configuration with a 6-foot-4 cargo box. The Rebel has the same 13.1-inch ground clearance as other Ram 2500 4x4s, compared to the Power Wagon’s 14.2 inches. Notably missing, though, is any added lift.
You also get trim-specific Bilstein monotube dampers and – most importantly – a locking rear differential borrowed from the Power Wagon.
For that coin, you get a handlebar-mustache grille with a mesh insert, attractive 20-inch wheels wrapped in 33-inch Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac tires, and a bulging Mopar sport hood. The Rebel slots in between the Laramie and the Power Wagon in the 2500 Heavy Duty lineup, with a starting price of $68,940 (including $1,895 destination). While not quite as capable as the Power Wagon, the 2500 Rebel still promises some good, dirty fun.Ī vehicle's ratings are relative only to its own segment and not the new-vehicle market as a whole. Best of all, it can be had either with the Hemi 6.4 or the Cummins inline-six, giving off-road customers the choice between a husky V8 roar or the easygoing torque and old-school clatter of one of the best diesel engines in history.
The 20 Rebel is here to round out the company’s off-road lineup, joining the smaller 1500 Rebel and Hellcat-powered TRX, not to mention the rock-crawling, high-articulation Power Wagon. No matter how much its customers clamor for it, Ram will never slot its legendary Cummins turbodiesel under the hood of the P-W, simply because that engine’s big radiators and intercoolers take up residence where the off-road pickup’s standard winch would live.īut now there’s a new Heavy Duty trim in town, and it carries a familiar name. One of the few complaints that full-size off-road enthusiasts have about the immensely capable Ram Power Wagon is that it’s only offered with the brand’s Hemi 6.4-liter V8.
