TFL Truck just did an overview of the Rebel for anyone who wants to see it. Oddly they didnt mention the new lighting though you can see the button for it under the headlight knob.

interesting, looks like they removed it. I wonder if enough people were saying they didnt like it that they took it down. The video, not the truck. It was different than anything else they have and had new music etc. People were complaining the video was boring.

Probably, I know since price dropped it dropped a lot of potential customers, folks saying they rather get X, Y or Z... and see greater value in going for those... I can already imagine the traction that gained on that video.

no no I mean the style that they filmed it in, it was silent with some odd music, was what people didnt like. Most people were responding they liked the truck but hated the video. They said it was a new thing they were trying.

Yeah, I watched it, too. It was not the typical TFL Truck video. From what I saw before they took it down it wasn't anything I haven't seen before, just a bunch of shots of the various standard features you get with the Rebel.

Strange they would be SO late on the uptake... definitely sounds like just an experiment...

 

[test123]

Well it was granite colored so it wasnt the red one they had before and it was 2016, hence they ambient lights they didnt mention. Maybe they got another one to do a real review of it.

They seem to have re-posted it recently:

 

[test123]

Looks like they 're edited it too. Totally different music and some different shots.

They did mention the fog lights. Was that missing from their first Rebel review?

Looking at the comments the video got there are a ton of complaints about how the video was done. The info provided through the video was great and that's all I care about.

not the fog lights, the new lighting system. if you look at the video there is another button on the headlight switch that looks like a light shining on the ground. This is not on the 15's, its the external lighting button/bed lights that was added to the 16's.

You can see it here. You push the knob for the fog lights, the new small button is for the external lights.

In the opening he says 2016 and then the text show 2015. I have a 2015 and it has the fog light button below the light knob.

My guess is it's a 2015, putting in into text and getting the information wrong isn't nearly as common as saying it wrong on video.

Plus it seem to me that getting a 2016 this soon might not be all that likely just yet... unless i'm wrong.

Mine's a '15, I have that button

That's just the cargo lamp light on the 3rd brake light. In the 2016's with the luxury group option, I would assume the LED bed lights are integrated into that button. I'll let ya know in a several weeks when I have mine
