2015 RAM Rebel

UGLY !!! Looks like a high school student blinged it out. And yes, if a thread appears to be a waste of time dont read it, certainly don't take the time to respond to it.

I agree the badging is hideous.
But I'm sure they will sell. Just look at the Chevy Avalanche.

Maybe not all TV's are full time TV's???

Maybe people who tow don't need a Dually and something like this would be fine.

Seems appropriate for the TV forum to me.

I tow with a minivan. I have all the doodads just like the big boys, WD hitch, break controller, sway control...does that mean that I'm not welcome here because my TV isn't TV enough?

Any vehicle that can tow a trailer of any size is considered a TV and welcome on this forum.

I recommend that If you don't like the thread use that big arrow at the top of the browser and click back and find a thread that appeals to you.

Well first off thanks for knife in my back :W
Second off 99% of these trucks will never tow anything, half a percent may tow a trailer with bikes or ATV's.
This lifted truck with off road tires and shocks is clearly meant to be a off road vehicle and not a tow vehicle. Have you seen the gear ratio? Great for towing a lawn mower I guess.
I have yet to see a Raptor towing anything and I'm sure I won't see this one towing anything either.
Maybe you can start a Corvette or Viper thread also in the Tow Vehicle section. What's next boat threads because it's being towed?
With all due respect your thread about towing with a mini van not to long ago was fine for me, it was interesting. It's not how big your TV is for me like you accused me of.
Bottom line is I don't need your recommendations on how to use a browser. Pretty sure Bill showed me that a Long Time ago.
That's My Opinion for tow vehicle threads, and I clearly think this one should be in the " around the campfire" forum. Marty is pretty loose though with subject. Barny would have dumped it after post #3 :B Thread was clearly pointed at Ford vs Ram trucks, nothing more, as usual.
Oh yea
Thanks
Rick

Rick, I'm sorry. It's not like me to treat people like that, many apologies. I am typically very light hearted on these issues and say a lot of tongue in cheek statements. Re-reading what I wrote, I was ugly and I am sorry. I certainly didn't mean to be.

I have seen a few Raptors actually towing, but it's pretty rare. Seems most of them around here are just used to get groceries and rev the motor to scare the locals. :D...

The RamRam is going to be interesting, I don't like it yet...then again I hated the 2015 F150 at first and now it's starting to grow on me.

Thanks!

Jeremiah

Hey Rick you remember posting this video?

Not sure what relevance it had in the Tow Vehicle's forum but it was fun to watch. Nor did you get attacked either.

I guess some have gotten to the point here is to attack the person you don't agree with. Perhaps you're a retired politician/truck critic? :W

Yeah I've read all bout em Troy. They are not a Raptor but in reality they are.... just not as good as a Raptor in off road conditions Ram should have said.
Hey I'll call out my own brand and clearly I don't care for em or their 5" badges.
I like most all trucks, this one reminded me of the Avalanche for some reason. Who knows maybe 40 years ago I would have bought one..... when I was young and dum*..... ah forget it. I'll p*ss off someone else :(

I would say RAM would disagree with you Rick...

I suppose tomorrow we'll get lectured that the Power Wagon isn't fit to tow either. :W

Gotta agree with you 45Ricochet, see a few Raptors trying to haul a 600-700lb quad in the box, not a pretty sight. Some have tried using trailers to haul their quads, but with the conditions of these oifield trails...trailers are lining the ditches quickly.

As for the "telescoping steering wheel" your 100% dead on troy. I have a $53,389 truck that I love except for that. I need to have the seat moved up so I don't feel like I'm reaching for the wheel. We build telescoping steering wheels just for some reason they don't out them in the trucks.

Be careful... You may have to put an order in for one.

LMAO :B

The Raptor is purpose built for high performance off-roading. This is just a Ram with a few upgraded parts. I think it will perform well for it's intended purpose, which is nothing like the Raptor.
