2020 Ram Rebel or Laramie

[gzig5]

Shopping for a new truck. My F150 let me down for the last time. I have pretty specific list of what I want and the truck will not be cheap. My option list knocks out the majority of available trucks and supply is short already due to Covid. Trying to decide between the Rebel and the Laramie. Like the look of the Rebel, but I won't be doing any kind of off-roading that would require whatever the Rebel brings to the table there. The Laramie tends to have more gadgets than I really need but to find a specific truck with what I want, that's were it leads. To get a Big Horn loaded to where I want it, it might as well be a Laramie. The 33gal fuel tank, 3.92 rear, and locker or anti-spin requirement I have really narrows the list.

Has anyone driven a 2019-2020 Rebel and a Laramie? I'm interested in how the Rebel rides vs the Laramie, which I have driven. I think they have different shocks, 18 vs 20" tires, off road vs highway style tires, and Rebel may be a little higher? Transfer case is different too. Can't seem to find any object comparison of the ride.

I think the Hellcat version comes out next year

The TRX is cool, but there is a limit to how fast I want to go in a high center of gravity, 6000lb vehicle. 400hp regular Hemi should do just fine.

Speak for yourself

I’ve got the 5.7 in mine and does do just fine, except when towing a travel trailer and the mileage goes to about 8. Best luck with whichever you get. I really love the feel of the Laramie.
