2023 Ram HD Rebel vs. Power Wagon: One of These Trucks is the Off-Road KING, But Which One Is It?

True. A few months ago I went into my local dealership to test drive a used Power Wagon, and I almost traded in my brand new 1500. A 1500 is everything I need but a Power Wagon is everything I want 😞

[@KeithStarr]

Prices are wild. I ordered a brand new 2021 Power Wagon and paid $53k (MSRP $60k). Level 1, 360 cameras, towing tech, dual alternators, bed utility group. Almost 30k miles with plenty of dents/scratches from the trails and zero issues. Towing 7k travel trailer too (thanks SumoSprings) with no complaints. Sold my Cummins and don’t miss it one bit, especially the emissions!

[@selfcarefordudes]

Just awesome what the Power Wagon can do. Even the nearly 20 year old 2005 model is more capable than many trucks today. I’d go PW for my needs, but the Rebel is also a great truck. Hats off to Ram 👏

I waited for Ram to release a package like this since Ford announced the Tremor. Between the low payload rating, the inability of running a winch with the Cummins, and not being available on a 3500 I went out and bought my first Ford in 25 years. Ram is so close to having the dominant truck. If they make the packages competitive and finally put a quality transmission behind the Cummins they will be the class leader. Until then, I will enjoy my fully optioned F350 Platinum Tremor with a 3300 lb payload.

[@Zanderthelab]

Ford is trash

[@1gr8oil]

Steven Kane...........................There is BOTHING wrong with the AUTOMATICS in the Ram Cummins, nless you increase the power with a tuner! ALSO, the 1 tons that have the Aison transmission, is very reliable, and better than the Allison in the GM or Ford

[@redtitan29]

@@1gr8oil The Aisin is a fantastic transmission, but it really needs weight to be appreciated. For guys who mainly tow it’s the perfect combo as long as you keep power levels close to stock. The Ford has a great all around transmission. Extremely refined compared to an Aisin which is perfect for a daily driver, weekend warrior.

[@juiceybrucey3475]

I’ll stick with my 2017 Powerwagon. I pull my 7600lb holiday trailer twice a year only. Diesel trucks only make sense these days if your towing regularly here in Canada.

I completely agree with you on the Rebel being a step below the Tremor. I agree also that the Power Wagon is the best for HD off-readers. I think theTremor has them both beat with Diesel payload and the availability of a winch with the diesel. But my 2020 F150 has the same payload as the Ram Rebel HD Cummins

[@donleamon8653]

The articulation of the PW is primary difference between it and other full-sized entries. Yes the lockers and winch are nice adders, but keeping the tires on the ground is key. I have a Able Components module in my '16 that will allow me to unlock the front swaybar at any speed (and also lock the front and rear at any speed, 2hi, 4hi, 4lo). I leave the front bar disconnected most of the time and enjoy a nice comfy ride, even with a Four Wheel Camper in the bed.

My '16 PW is just about to turn 100k. I've had one problem, under warranty, a failed EVAP solenoid. It has been a great truck and is as unstoppable off-road as my 80 series Land Cruiser, though at over 9,300# loaded with a FWC, sliders, bumpers, yada - deep sand can be tricky. Payload, pfft...

[@donleamon8653]

My 3rd PW comment here and not sure it is still relevant, but my 4th gen '16 PW was just a couple steps above a Tradesman. The only two options it had was the tow mirrors and the bigger 8" infotainment head unit. With this option, I was able to add a bunch of features such as single zone auto temp control, steering wheel volume/track buttons, HomeLink, the nicer PowerWagon (with logo) EVIC gauge cluster. Driver and passenger under dash lighting pigtails are there for adding some nice LED illumination. Added the OEM remote start/keyless feature too. Essentially everything was there to build up a higher trim (wiring harness) but the larger 8" headunit was the key for many items. Not sure if that is still the case, but worth investigation.

[@redspain349]

That’s exactly what I did the tradesmen power wagon the exact one that you have on the video red chrome and black love it. I do not need all the bells and whistles with all the electronics inside. I have the 8 1/2 inch entertainment system Blindspot Monitoring back up sensors. Interior opted for the work Grade vinyl it looks like leather, floor shifter for the four-wheel-drive vinyl floors because I put Rams floor mats in. All I have to do when I clean it pull the floor mats out and wipe the floor down no vacuuming . $42,000 before taxes

[@coomikaze21]

Just buy a regular 2500 Cummins, add one of the Carli suspension kits, 37s on 17s, airbags with cradles and maybe ARB air locker if needed and you will have better truck the HD Rebel for less money. If need more payload, do the same but with 3500. That is my plan, have the 2500 Cummings on 37s with Carli Commuter and it rides like a dream will probably upgrade later Fox 2.0 with external reservoir or King 2.5s later on. Will be adding airbags with cradle soon as I tow a trailer and it sags a little in the rear but still rides great. Will add air lockers and new bumper/winch if I start getting a little more brave offroad. Even with all the upgrades will come in under $91,000 and be light years better then HD Rebel. I would have gone Power Wagon but I need about 2000 lbs payload to tow trailer with kids, dogs, bikes, etc for camping.

[@donrichter3523]

There are ZERO aftermarket rear diff locks for the current HD RAM. That’s one reason to get a Rebel HD.

[@LucasLeCompteMusic]

This is the correct answer.

[@dizzyreckless5991]

Awesome vid as usual guys. I am confused by one thing with regards the fuel range discussed. The HD 6.4 had a range of 415 miles (256 covered with 159 remaining) and the HD Cummins had the same (114 covered with 300 remaining) but Andre said 'that's why you get the diesel, for the range'. If they are the same range, then isn't the real difference the torque? Am I missing something, perhaps the diesel tank is smaller?

[@jameseroh6544]

Nice comparison. And yes the overlanding range is a big deal!!! Even with the higher cost of diesel, a savings can be realized. Of course range is everything while overlanding. We have an '18 Ram 2500 Crewcab 4wd 6.7L Cummins with the 3.42 ratio. Our mods include a Hawk model 4wheel popup camper. Bilstein 5200 shocks on the rear, and Eibach shocks on the front, and a steering brace. Added an aluminum transmission oil pan. Have a Bank's intake to delete the grid heater, ready to be installed. We also have a '16 Ram 1500 Quadcab 4wd 3.0L Ecodiesel 3.92 ratio. Bilstein 5200 shocks all around, Flowmaster muffler, and the Bank's silencer delete tube. The ULTIMATE overlander would be a Megacab 3500 with the 3.0L Ecodiesel, 8-speed, 4.44, 4.56 or 4.88 ratio, and the AEV 3" lift kit to allow 37" tires. The original 5.9L Cummins in '94, had less power than the 3.0L Ecodiesel. The 8-speed would help the engine stay in the sweet spot. And if Tow/Haul mode is used, the VGT turbo engine breaking is pretty good.

[@shawnriddle3018]

I tow all day long with the Hemi Power Wagon. 4:10 gear. Bought my 2015 AEV power wagon to tow in soft dune sand Oceano and imperial, dumont dunes. 25' toy hauler. You can very well tow with a V8 engine. In fact i think the power wagon did very well in your towing test uphill and down hill ike. Also the power wagon did well in your off road test scoring. The highest i think P.S. companies offer supercharger kits for the 392 Hemi V8 for less than 10,000 dollars if you want boost for high elevations. Big bear is 40 minutes from my home. Adding Diesel to the Legendary off road p.w. is like adding 22" rims. I do have a cummins generator my R.V. however.

[@JasonWh]

I bought a 2022 Power Wagon 75th anniversary and immediately put in the Carli Pintop system with radius arms. It immediately made the truck the best offroad option period. I've taken my truck to some INCREDIBLE obstacles and it just went everywhere! The gas mileage is one downside, however.

[@djdentley]

I was really excited for the HD Rebel. As a 5th gen Ram Rebel owner, who’s looking to upgrade to a HD truck, the concept is ideal. However, the execution leaves a bit to be desired. I’ll wait for the 5th gen cabs and higher GVWR. The rumors of mild hybrid systems to boost power and efficiency are promising.

[@josephhecht2439]

Ew mild hybrids 👎

You're the man Andre. Thx for the great video. I'd love to see a video of an HD Rebel vs. a normal 2500 with an off road package. I just dont see what you're getting with the rebel package, other than badging and maybe somewhat better offroad shocks and tires? I could be wrong... If I am, I'd love to know.

[@Steelviper61]

Tradesman w/the Powerwagon package is the only way to go if you have to tow anything over 10k lbs. That would def be the truck for me as I tow my skid steers and gooseneck and dump trailers etc. My GMC AT4 HD 2500 seems to do a fine job but I would like to have that winch bc from time to time I do get my skid steer stuck sometimes and that winch would def come in handy. Good job Andre!

[@gipsyghoul]

I really like the PW mostly for trails and camping but I have read all over the internet that it can tow up to 17,000 pounds no problem. Just curious is that not the case?

[@leoazucena-lagos3777]

Go ahead and idle that "great mileage" diesel offroad a couple years.. you'll really see the difference when you replace engine parts and exhaust systems. Been there done that.. not again. On our second "gasser" power wagon now in 8 years. Love that truck.

[@Shravan.R.Prabhakaran]

i actually like the analog and digital gauge display on PW and feels youre more engaged with the truck .. these new gauge cluster on rebel HD doesn't look good and boring to me.

[@patriot5526]

One thing to consider here between the Rebel diesel and the 6.4 Hemi. The gas Rebel has about 1000 lbs more payload capability than the diesel. So even though the diesel can tow 3 to 4 lbs than the gas on paper, the tongue weight of 10 to 15 percent will take away payload quickly, so the difference between the to may not be as dramatic it may seem. Also, you can add air bags to the Power Wagon and tow just as much as the Rebel.

[@WW-wf8tu]

I like your final outcome choice. 🤣 Put up 3 say you are going to choose 1 and then ignore them all for something else. Might as well have been completely honest and say you would not pick a Ram product at all and buy the truck you own. 😉 Which I think is a fantastic choice still. If one wants a fully capable OR truck from the factory, obviously they would seek the Jeep. Which is still in the Stellantis family so no shame to the manufacturers. While prices continue to suck, at least the consumers have a wide variety of options to choose from for there needs/wants.

[@KH2PM]

I love my paid-for 2014 RAM 2500 Laramie Cummins 370/800 68RFE. 70k trouble-free miles. Sticker was $60k new. 2240 payload and 17,100 rated towing. I bought it new back in late 2013. Personally I don’t need the off-road capabilities that the Rebel and Power Wagon provide. Also getting 16-17 MPG average and over 20 MPG on highway trips is nice. The prices of new trucks, all vehicles actually, is ridiculous. It is neat to see the RAM trucks in this video in action. Thanks Andre!

[@SeguroOffroad]

This is a fair assessment. Agreed.

The only draw back to my ram 2021 2500 6.4 was the spongy brake pedal. My equivalent work truck is a Ford F250 and it does everything great. This is just my experience. And yes the dealer said the braking system was normal on my vehicle but it didn’t feel normal to me.

[@esptraces]

Did you get the computer update? There was a recall issued with a computer update to address some braking issues.

[@hewlett260]

Something people forget regarding Diesel and off road driving is the amount of idle time and super low rpm. The emissions systems in newer diesel trucks are still the Achilles heel and don't like low rpms or idling for extended times so fuel economy considered, it would still be the better choice to opt for the gas engine.

[@4wdtennessee459]

Power wagon all the way for me. To be completely honest I want a first gen w350 with all the power wagon drivetrain. 4 door cab with a short bed. Would be awesome

[@squid0013]

The only thing i didnt like about my 19 and 22 power wagon...with that massive muffler it sounded like it was wheezing 😂. That has been fixed on my 22 with the proper application of an aeroturbine muffler. With my 35 inch Yokohama g003 M/T tires it sees right at 13.3 mpg highway. The payload goes down to 1100 lbs with the rambox option. It is the perfect truck for those that want off road ability with almost 1500 ride.

[@FUBAR956]

My opinion, at $100,000, the tires and articulation differences are expected. The Power Wagon is for the guy who wants a pickup truck but also wants to go play with his Jeep friends. While the Rebel is for the guy who wants to have some fun on the weekend or take the family camping, but he also needs to hook up and pick up three round bails of hay on Monday.

[@HKvsGlock]

How does the new rebel diesel handle emission related items when you’re doing trails for hours? What prevents the DPF from clogging up if you can’t do highway speeds? Multiple forced regens?

[@86rustbucket]

Not sure if Chrysler tried to do any real Voice of Customer for this truck, but. They could have easily carried over some of the beneficial Power Wagon items at little to no cost. For example, 20” wheels, seriously, look at your Ford competition guys. Instead of introducing a new wheel, carryover the PW wheel and tire combo, at 3195 lbs per tire capacity at 65 psi, that is fine for the GVWR of a Ram 2500. Also, the PW front lift springs should work as well at least on the Hemi rebel as the front weights should be the same. Maybe the only additions that would be needed beyond that are taller springs for the rear and a limited slip diff for the front axle, then you have a Tremor competitor. As it sits now, this is just an appearance package. Also, what customer wanted a full digital display cluster, I’m guessing if Chrysler actually surveyed current Ram owners and said, how about we replace your gauges with a full LCD instrument cluster? They would have got a resounding “are you freaking stupid or something?, no keep it simple folks”

[@malifestro3319]

Good reason to be concerned about that wheel combo. I've rashed my 17's running 35s on my Wrangler. Thankfully they have a ring that I can paint or replace.

[@MrChadx1]

Same problem with these packages as with the other manufacturer's coolest and most capable offroad packages: They are only available in a crew cab/standard bed. Need a doublecab/extendedcab pickup with a standard bed to get a shorter, more offroad usable, wheelbase. HD trucks already don't cut the wheels as far as as Fullsize trucks and are a foot longer. But add another foot of length because these are all crewcab and you need 40 acres to turn these rigs around.

[@awats72752]

I always wanted a power wagon cause dual locked solid axles and disconnect sway bar… then Jeep made the non-power wagon aka the Gladiator and it just fits my needs much better.

With a 2.5” lift and 35s though I still get better fuel economy and have far better off road capability than the power wagon.

Gravity takes over. Diesel is good for towing. Torque for starting the load moving and low RPM for fuel savings. P.W. is the King off road period. Before Jeep there was Dodge 4x4 trucks since 1934.

Was pretty eager to get a new Ram...until the girlfriend mentioned that half of the front passenger seat footwell is taken up by part of the transmission tunnel. Can't believe its never mentioned in the reviews.

When y’all going to take the all new Power Wagon Cummins for a test drive? There’s two at the Ram dealer here in Avondale, AZ! FYI 😊

Great Video! Thank you!

You guys should do a review on a ram 2500 AEV prospector package.

Andre...you are a Classic Worrier, but we still love you! Make sure you look for surface rust on the pumpkin! HA!

Regardless of it's off road abilities, it is inexcusable that an HD truck has less payload than a Maverick.

[@sh0cktim3]

Small sacrifice to be capable of going almost anywhere. Maverick wouldn't be able to climb over a trail of Lego toys.

[@Silverback_GMT410]

@@sh0cktim3 but the Mav will get where 90 percent of where people need to go. And it will drive further each time all while carrying more weight.

@@Silverback_GMT410 PW is a specific purpose built vehicle man. Best truck with a factory warranty that you can take off road. HD frame, steel bumpers, don't gotta worry about bending nothing. Winch available and rides like Cadillac ON and OFF-road. Can seat 6 people. 6 and 1/2 foot bed. Can still tow over 9000lbs with ease. I don't see any point in complaining about having different options available to us as consumers. You can literally buy a 2500 HD RAM with over 4000 payload and it'll tow 20,000lbs. Or get more crazy and get a 3500 with over 7000 payload and can tow well over 30,000lbs. Options are good. Wouldn't it suck if the only truck available was diesel workhorse with a 8 foot bed. Not everyone needs that. End of story.

@@sh0cktim3 but my issue is that at 9000 of towing for a truck that gets maxed out by it’s tongue weight is pretty sorry. And and HD truck with off road chops can be found with the Tremor that can also seat 6, 6 and 3/4 bed tow north of 10,000 lbs and payload to spare for people, and cargo. Along with a winch option, and engine options.

@@Silverback_GMT410 tongue weight only getting maxed out if you can can squeeze 6 fat chicks in the cab. Tows 9000 with ease, rated from the factory to tow 10,500.

[@TradesmanOutdoorAdventures]

Color me biased (I own a ‘21 Tradesman PW), but I think your call was dead-on accurate. Hard to justify $30k+ for a Diesel engine and options when the Tradesman PW will perform better offroad. Need to tow? But a diesel tradesman with the off-road package.

To Andre's point about the size of the wheel robbing tire side wall 4:00. I wish truck makers pushing off-road capable trucks would stop with the 20" OEM wheels. Tire tread is NOT enough if you are going off-road. You need as much tire wall as possible both to be able to sufficiently air-down, but also to protect the wheel rim from getting bent on a rock. Regarding range, nothing beats a diesel 7:00, only problem, the White just said there is only 25 days left of diesel fuel. Not sure how true that is. But they have been selling our fuel reserves to China. Just throwing that in there as something to think about. If it's not the issue they stated it's not a problem. 7:32 I have also thought these grills were fugly. Again, I have to agree with Andre on the 20" wheel and lower profile tires for similar reasons I mentioned earlier.
