Ram Brings Its 1500 Rebel to the Houston Auto Show



The Houston Auto Show gave me the chance to personally ask Kevin Mets, head of Ram pickup marketing, about his company's 2015 1500 Rebel and the Ford F-150 Raptor's influence on it.

I like Rams, and currently own a Ram 2500. But the Rebel doesn't impress me. It looks like they tried to duplicate the "Raptor look" but not the performance. Ram could have easily used one of the larger high performance Hemi engines and upgraded to a longer travel suspension and given the Raptor serious competition.
