The Ram has loads of cab space, although with the optional full-length sunroof, back seat head room suffers a bit. The screen can be turned off, if it’s a distraction. The heavily bolstered front seats feel like they belong in a high-horsepower track car, and the optional 12-inch touchscreen infotainment system in the center of the dash allows you to better control the output of the truck and many of the interior amenities. Inside, the Rebel has plenty of creature comforts, especially in the G/T package.
