I've been lax in getting this all put together, so the first couple posts will be a bit of a catch-up, then I'll update from there as things happen.
I ordered a 2023 2500 Rebel on Oct 21, 2022. The truck was built on Jan 12th and shipped on Jan 20th. I picked it up from the dealer on Feb 8, 2023. I went with the Rebel as I do a lot of offloading, but also tow a travel trailer so I wanted more towing and payload capacity than a Power Wagon offered. The Rebel is essentially a PW without a front locker and disconnecting sway bar, and with a suspension similar to that of a "normal" 2500 (Ram says the suspension is unique to this trim, but haven't detailed how exactly). Because of this suspension my truck has a payload capacity of 2,872 lbs (nearly double that of a Power Wagon) and a towing capacity of 16,730. This is more than enough to tow my 26' trailer (and larger should I upgrade in the future), as well as a bed full of other camping and outdoor gear.
So far we absolutely love the truck. We've put 8000 miles on it in 4 1/2 months and aside from the (expectedly) terrible fuel economy and the too small gas tank it's wonderful.
