2019 Ram Rebel wins Four Wheeler’s Truck of the Year! | McLarty Daniel CDJR of Bentonville

With a winning mix of design, engineering and performance, the 2019 Ram 1500 Rebel builds on the already formidable 2019 Ram 1500 4×4 to create a one-of-a-kind off-roader that looks as great on date night as is does fender deep in the mud. Since the Ram Rebel debuted last year, the critics have been taking notice, with Ram’s flagship four wheel drive package racking up awards. It’s time to make room on the mantle for another big one, with the news that Four Wheeler Magazine has awarded the 2019 Ram 1500 Rebel their prestigious Pickup Truck of the Year award after a competition that put the Ram Rebel head-to-head with the competition in a punishing series of tests.

Building on the beautiful styling of the 2019 Ram 1500, the 2019 Ram 1500 Rebel ups the ante and the attitude with features like a factory lift or optional air suspension that can raise the ground clearance at the touch of a button, factory 33-inch tires, a locking rear axle, off-road shocks by iconic racing supplier Bilstein, a full complement of heavy steel skid plates underneath, frame-mounted tow hooks to help extract lesser rigs from the muck, and more.

For over 30 years, the staff of Four Wheeler Magazine has been selecting their pickup truck of the year with a week-long event in which models from every major automaker are tested in real world conditions, with a panel of seven judges driving each truck over 1,000 miles in everything from deep mud to stop-and-go traffic. Trucks in the competition are judged on not only for the ease-of-use and off-road capability of their four wheel drive running gear, but also in categories like comfort, handling, ride quality, performance, fuel economy, towing and hauling and more. When all was said and done, the 2019 Ram Rebel was judged King of the Mountain.

“The entire 2019 Ram lineup is impressive,” said Four Wheeler group content director Sean Holman, “but what the company was able to do when confronted with the task of developing a competitive off-road package leaves little to be desired. Starting with a stiff chassis, skid plates, electrically-activated rear locker, 33-inch Goodyear Duratrac tires, tow hooks and a stellar implementation of Bilstein shocks means that the Rebel is a willing and ready trail companion right out of the box. Add to that the Ram’s benchmark interior, supple ride and incredible technology and the Rebel is an everyday driver that isn’t afraid to go adventuring on the weekends.”

“The Ram Rebel is the rugged extreme of the all-new 2019 Ram 1500 lineup, and this award from Four Wheeler magazine recognizes Rebel’s combination of capability, design and durability,” said Reid Bigland, Head of Ram Brand. “We worked hard to deliver something unique with the Rebel, and it’s a proud feeling when a leading off-road enthusiast publication stands behind it as their Pickup Truck of the Year.”
