The 2019 Ram 1500 crew cab Rebel with air suspension, 12" nav display, and the 5.7 Hemi is pretty nice.
Pros: comfort, usb-c that quick charges front and back, easy to use nav system, comfortable ride (with caveats), nice convenience features like rain sensing wipers, etc. Awesome sunroof, great styling inside and out. Oh yeah, easy tailgate. Soft down and easy up. Electronic latch. I know that's low on the list but I sure is nice.
Cons: ride is not good in aero suspension setting. Have to turn off that feature. Fuel economy is terrible. Typical 11-13 mpg. If someone says it is higher they are either not using it in traffic or they are lying. The back up emergency braking is jarring and over sensitive to the point of being terrible and unusable.
I think the rebel is awesome, and the air suspension is a must. But get nerf bars because waiting for it to raise and lower every time you get out or in is not reasonable. It's not so much a con, but bears mentioning.
Reliability is anyone's guess, obviously. It is a strong truck. Transmission shifts very smoothly.
In the rebel you lose the 4-wheel auto setting, which is a really nice thing to have. My old ram had it and I got into the habit of using it in the rain when I wasn't hauling anything.
I do not like the super luxury trucks typically, but the Rebel trim is a great compromise. You get the rubber floor mats standard, reasonable off road capability (face it that's needed even if you don't go mudding), and while it is indeed a"pretty" truck, it can get down to business without you worrying you are going to scratch your Sunday go to meetin' vehicle. I opted for a drop in bedliner which I personally feel does a better job of protecting against dents.
In the end, you don't need my or anyone else's review to decide on a new ram. They are excellent vehicles. Far better fit and finish than any Ford, far better materials and comfort than any Chevy. Not that I'm a religious purist about it, but then again, I bought mine because my last truck was a ram. My next one might or might not be. For now, they are a clear winner.

I'm all in on FCA products when they produce a truck like my RAM ecodiesel which hands down is outstanding on all fronts and checks all the boxes. Queit. Roomy. Looks and rides great. All with fabulous gas (diesel) mileage.
I have nothing but good thing's to say about him. He is new at this game, but he handles himself like a caring professional. He is not pushy and he will listen to what you have to say. He Will help you to find exactly what you're looking for.if you need a new vehicle, then Jeramiah Smith at Bob Hart Chevrolet. IS the one to go see!
2018 RAM 1500 Big Horn Review
Traded my 2015 Chevy Silverado V8 5.3, 6 spd, 4x2,

My Chevy with apex 350 HP V8 4x2 was nearly always in the range of 21 MPG, where my 2018 Ram is running about 19 MPG, but is 5.7, and has 4x4, making it a bit heavier, plus about 50 more HP. The Silverado was quick, but the Ram hauls! Learning to keep my foot out of fast...
We make an annual trip of about 1000 miles back and forth to COfrom Tucson AZ, will be interesting to see how it does for MPG on highway.
Looked closely at the 19s, but purchased a slightly used 18, saving us about 10,000. Am questioning the wisdom of not getting the19, with latest technology?? Bottom line, darned hard to beat an exceptional truck! My toughest adjustment is the hockey puck transmission selector. I nearly purchased a Ram when I purchased the Silverado, but didn’t like the puck, I was correct, still hate it, lowest part of the truck! I’d pay more to have a traditional gear selector!!
I needed help looking for a new car and EJ helped me out quite a bit. He explained everything to me and made it real simple. Thank you EJ!

Very nice workmanship. Recognizable quality vehicle as appreciated by maintenance personnel. Enjoyable to converse about this vehicle with maintenance personnel. Comfort for passengers in crew cab.
I had talked to a few dealerships and it seemed like the salesman never really listened to what I wanted, but I talked with EJ and he knew exactly what I was wanting. I appreciate all of his help.

RAM does it right.

V8 Hemi has more than enough power. Fit and finish of vehicle is excellent. Interior cabin very roomy and comfortable. Ride is similar to a luxury SUV, very quiet and smooth. First truck I have owned and no regrets.
Took my 97 Chevy Siverado with 225,000 miles in because it wasn't firing on a cylinder they tore it apart and found a torque bit inside from when it was built it bent an exhaust valve and broke the head they replaced the head and installed a new timing chain and gears and now this thing runs like brand new. Randy kept me informed on the damage and repair process in a timely manner. I really appreciate the care and work they did to my vehicle.

I love my truck and the best part is that it came with a lifetime powertrain warranty! comfortable and the performance is through the roof!
I have owned 5 GMC Sierra Denali's and really loved those trucks but the 2019 Ram Limited is on a whole other level. The 5.7 is slightly slower than the 6.2 but in every other category the Ram is superior. I am very pleased with this truck.
Meets ever need in a truck.this truck has a very smooth ride to it. It is very Dependable vehicle. This has been used as a Daily driving. Truck has never been driving hard. Very comfortable driving
4WD Hemi 1500. Just returned from trip from north Ala to Lancaster, PA and back. Interstate, highway and local sightseeing. I average 22.4 miles per gallon. I routinely average between 20 and 21 mpg. Truck has a 3.23 rear axle. Performance/ nimbleness is outstanding. Love this truck. Bought last August.
Smooth, good looking, Hemi strong RAM that made you feel like you owned the roads. Could not have asked for more out of a Truck, and I have owned many.
This is my first truck. I traded in my 5 Series BMW for something more practical. Enjoying the power, style and the iconnect system is so well designed and very intuitive. I hope my joy for the truck continues for many years.
This truck is the nicest vehicle I have ever driven. It’s beautiful to look at from the outside in. It’s extremely comfortable to drive, but also feels like a truck.
