There are a few different setups for the 2019 Rebel Classic, you can go with the 4×2 which starts at $43,995, or 4×4 starting at $47,495 for the Crew Cab, or the 4×4 Quad Cab which starts at $44,695.
There are two different engine setups available. There is the standard 3.6 V6 that puts out 305 horsepower at 6400 rpm, and 269 pound feet of torque at 4800 rpm. Power is channeled to the wheels through an 8-speed automatic transmission.
It does 15 mpg in the city, 22 on the highway, but there is an optional more beastly engine setup which is the 5.7 liter Hemi V8, a $1,200 option. Basic one offers 395 horsepower, 410 pound-feet of torque through an 8-speed automatic giving you mpg of 15 in city and 21 on the highway.
This truck has quick acceleration considering its size while offering good off-road capabilities. The suspension setup includes Bilstein performance tuned shock absorbers, as well as Goodyear Wrangler Dura track tires. Its tires are probably the most important aspect for off-roading. If you don’t have off-road tires, you more than likely will definitely get stuck while odd-roading.
Of course the trade-off to having beefier tires for off-roading is, you do get a little more road noise unfortunately, but if you’re going for this truck, you really are not going to care. In addition, you get a front suspension skid plate which is a necessity for off-roading as those rocks are going to scratch up the undercarriage.
There is also an optional air suspension that adds around $1,800 to the price, but with that one you can actually use toggle switches to raise the truck up for additional ground clearance. That is definitely a pretty cool feature and of course having an air suspension is also going to help with ride quality on the highway. So its really going to give you best of both the worlds if you want to spring for that option.
When it comes to the steering feel, it does feel pretty natural for a truck, it of course is not going to be as heavy as a Hellcat but definitely not on the looser side either.
Taking a look at its visibility, driver can see perfectly fine out the back. There is an additional blind spot mirror within both side mirrors. If you’re hauling something this feature is definitely going to help out.

There is also a power sliding rear window which you can control using the button located on the roof. Its rear seats are 60/40 folding seats, so if you have a Great Dane that you want to throw back there, simply fold up those rear seats and there should be plenty of room.
There is also some hidden storage under rear seats and it’s not just a little bit of storage, it is a pretty deep storage compartment. There is also a fold-down center armrest with cup-holders on back seats.
