drove the 2024 IForceMax and didn't like it

The pricing mark-up for the Hemi is why the 2024 Rebel is more expensive. You can actually get one with the Pentastar. But here are the two comparisons of Rebels at the low end.

This doesn't even account for stuff that is stock on the 25 that the 24 does not have.

ya i build 2 the same way and adding the V8 is where the up charge was and yes something that you had to pay for in 24 come standard in the 25 i think Tim pointed that out in one of his new videos he did on the new 25. its crazy but if your going to get a rebel why get the smaller engine ?? so i built the 24 and the 25 the same way and found that the 24, was 77,310K and the 25 was 75,010K i dont know where the break down price was on my build page so i had to go old school heck i was going take a picture and that ddnt work lol

My sense right now is people want things to fail. They want the turbos to be unreliable. They want truck companies to go bankrupt. They want a new President. They want to go back to the 1990s. I see hate in my comments all the time.

The biggest thing people hate is change. If it's different it must be bad. Turbos are different, therefore, bad. And bad means "unreliable". Plus, there is the old macho aspect of V8s. We were a country of muscle cars when everyone else was making turbos, lightweight, supercars and we just can't change. Like the metric system...

I noticed on the 2025 you cannot order the big decals yet the trucks in the videos from yesterday had them.

if you did do a video that would help i hauled cars for almost 9 years and my main contract was BMW out of SC i would run to NY 2 times a week with these cars and moving the new models was alway fun cause when i pulled up the dealerships would be so happy and then they would be like well what are we going to do with all these others. now when covid hit it was to opp. even bmw couldnt keep cars on the lot and it was like a ghost town. thats when they started to mark everything up. so i understand. its just like the new tundra and the problems with changing to an all new truck the "bugs" how many bugs do you thing Ram is going to have with these new trucks even though the powertrain has been in the grand waggon for a year now?

I've seen the reliability question asked as well a few times. I understand something new is going to be inherently a concern, but the Hemi wasn't without its problems either. Hemi tick anyone?

People love to point at the Tundra V8 as the gold standard of reliability. I remember covering numerous issues with that engine over the years as well.

Interestingly, my research has showed the 3.5L turbocharged EcoBoost to be MORE reliable than Ford's NA 5.0L V8. People hate that.

My sense right now is people want things to fail. They want the turbos to be unreliable. They want truck companies to go bankrupt. They want a new President. They want to go back to the 1990s. I see hate in my comments all the time.

I'm going to grab a quick shower and shave and I'll do a video titled something like "your questions answered on the new 2025 Ram 1500." I'll include inventory, reliability, pricing (people are stunned a half-ton truck could cost $90k, that price isn't new) and whatever I can think of in the shower. I'd like 5 things. Hmm...

I don’t think people want to go back to the ‘90s but instead to the ‘50s (ie Leave it to Beaver”). I’ll shut up now.
