2004 Dodge Ram Rumble Bee

 

Number 1636 Rumble Bee HEMI Only 66780 Miles!

 

Up for auction is this super nice 2004 Dodge Ram Rumble Bee edition number 1636.  This Bee is a show winner with all of the factory trim offered with the Rumble Bee option as well as many details that I have added to make sure that this Bee stands out even in a crowd of its own kind.  Over the last 2 years the Bee has placed at every show I have entered.  Turns heads every time with out fail.  If you don’t want to be noticed this is not the truck for you! 

 

This Bee has only 66780 miles. It has been kept in the dry all of its life and I know that it has not even been caught in the rain in over a year.  The exterior of the Bee shows very nicely with all of the standard trim offered in the package by Dodge.  Several things have been added to go even further and set this Bee out from the rest.  Black headlights have been installed that really give the Bee a sinister look.  A black aluminum gas cap cover compliments the black trim against the bright yellow paint.  A Trail FX fiberglass tonneau cover in the factory yellow and matching black stripe extensions have been added giving the Bee Mopar muscle stance and style.  The factory ground effects have been modified with stripe extensions and the exhaust cut out has been removed to give the Bee a complete Rumble Bee tail stripe from the pavement on one side to another while the Flowmaster exhaust is terminated just even with the ground effects out of sight while keeping the Hemi sound present.  Other details include a black aluminum Hemi license plate frame, black aluminum Mopar valve stem caps and matching yellow brake calipers with Mopar logo.  The wheels are factory aluminum 20’s not plated but aluminum with Good Year Wrangler HP 275/60/20 tires having excellent tread. 

 

The engine is the Chrysler 5.7 liter Hemi.  Anything else need to be said?  The engine is stock but I have added a Vararam true ram air intake system.  The Vararam has a Six Pack style air filter system that is plumbed directly to the front of the truck with air intake ports directly under the grille in the bumper.  Now that is true fresh air intake.  This air system was $379 as ordered but I had the air cleaner lid painted to match the bright yellow and capture the black stripe and Rumble Bee logo, one off, you won’t see another.

 

The suspension of the Bee has been modified to level the stance giving it an aggressive, fast and powerful look.  The rear end was lowered to level things out using a 4” axle flip kit.  All four corners were measured with final tweeks made at the coil springs.  The ride is great, stiff where it needs to be with very little body roll. 

 

The interior is excellent with the factory Rumble Bee trim.  The audio has been very tastefully upgraded.  A Pioneer Premier DEH-P610BT with HD radio, satellite, Bluetooth and USB is at the head.  MB Quart mids and highs, Planet subs, Planet and Alpine amps.  Very clean.  The center seat is not used with the current audio system.  There is a small tear in the seat as well as a worn spot on the factory floor mat.

 

Other things, and I am sure I have forgotten some, include the hood scoop ladder stripe that I never installed goes with it, the truck cover in the bed goes with it (please cover her up), Mopar tow package and tinted windows.  The SLT options; PW, PL, PM, Tilt, Cruise, PDS, sliding rear window, on board computer, etc. 

 

This truck has been close to me for many years belonging to family friends.  It has been a daily driver and does have the small bumps and bruises that one would expect of a 10 year old driver.  The truck has had one repaint due to clear coat that I am aware of.  There are some rock chips that have been touched up with factory paint.  The bed has been used sparingly.  There is a mark from the latch of the bed cover on the tail gate not visible unless the cover is raised.  It is in excellent shape with only 66k however.  I have driven the Bee on a couple of 700 mile trips with no issue.  I have a clear Tennessee title in hand. 

 

I am willing to meet the winning bidder within 75 miles of Shelbyville Tn.  I would entertain other delivery options and related fees but these arrangements must be made prior to auction’s end.  Winning bidder will pay $500.00 deposit via Paypal within 24 hours of auction’s end.  Final payment options are to be set within 48 hours of auction’s end. This truck is used and sold as is, where is.  Mileage could change slightly by auctions end.  This truck is for sale locally and I reserve the option to end this auction at any time.

Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards

Tue, 19 Nov 2013

Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).

FCA seeks partner to keep building Dodge Dart, Chrysler 200

Wed, Mar 9 2016

Mere weeks after FCA announced it was shutting down production of the Dodge Dart and Chrysler 200, new hope emerges to give the sedans a stay of execution. Speaking at the Geneva Motor Show last week, Sergio Marchionne said that the company was looking for a partner "who is better at it than we are and who has got capacity available" in order to continue building the models on its behalf. "There are discussions going on now," said Marchionne, according to Motor Trend. "I think we will find a solution. We continue to talk. It's both a technical solution and an economic one. We need to find a solution that works economically." Contracting vehicles to be manufactured offsite is more common practice among European automakers than it is with American ones. Chrysler's former patron Mercedes, for example, has the G-Class built for it by Magna Steyr in Austria, the A-Class by Valmet in Finland, and the R-Class by AM General in Indiana (even though it's no longer sold in the US). This arrangement would, on the surface at least, appear more similar to the deal that Toyota struck with Mazda to build the Scion iA, drawing on the contractor's expertise and capacity to build the small sedan on the client company's behalf. Only rather than basing a new model on one of the partner's existing ones, this deal would ostensibly continue building FCA models on FCA platforms using FCA components. We'll have to wait to find out with whom FCA strikes up the manufacturing deal, but we wouldn't be surprised to see Marchionne turn to a partner he already knows. The company is, after all, at the center of an intricate web of joint ventures and manufacturing contracts. The Fiat 124 Spider, for example, is built by Mazda. The Fiat Sedici that preceded the 500X was built by Suzuki. Models like the Dodge Stealth and Eagle Talon were built in Illinois at the Diamond-Star Motors joint venture before Mitsubishi took it over altogether. And Dodge continued selling the Mercedes-made Sprinter long after DaimlerChrysler split. The Ram ProMaster, though built by FCA in Mexico for the North American market, stems from a partnership in France with PSA Peugeot Citroen. And the ProMaster City is built in a joint-venture plant in Turkey, from which it's also sold by GM as an Opel in Europe and a Vauxhall in the UK. With all those deals coming and going, after all, what would one more add to the complexity?

Junkyard Gem: 1978 Dodge Tradesman Custom Van

Fri, Nov 4 2016

The custom-van craze was huge in California, back in the 1970s, and plenty of folks who would never have considered getting zonked on Acapulco Gold while listening to Elephant's Memory ended up buying Econolines and Beauvilles and Tradesmen with shag carpeting, bubble windows, and wild graphics. In fact, van buyers could get that stuff right from the factory. Most of those vans are gone now, but I found this used-up '78 Dodge in a self-service wrecking yard in California's Central Valley. Owners of custom vans felt strongly about their rides back in the Malaise Era. This one has the look of a vehicle that was used for beer-and-burned-meat-heavy tailgate parties at Oakland Raiders games. Such service is rough on a van.
