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.

1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express in Generation Gap showdown with 1933 Ford Pickup

Fri, 18 Jul 2014

Auto enthusiasts love a good debate, whether it's Mustang versus Camaro or Ferrari against Lamborghini. But how about a battle between two very different vintages of classic pickup trucks? In this case, the fight is between a 1979 Dodge Li'l Red Express and a 1933 Ford Model 46 truck with a flathead V8.
The shootout comes courtesy of the internet series Generation Gap, and its concept is super-simple. One guy prefers classics, and the other likes newer rides. They choose a category, pick two vehicles and put them head to head. In this case, neither is exactly modern, though. The Ford is more than old enough to receive Social Security checks, and the Dodge is hardly a young whippersnapper.
Other than both being pickups, these two models were made to serve very different functions. The Li'l Red Express was basically the progenitor of today's muscle trucks, with a big V8 that made it one of the quickest new models in its day (admittedly, 1979 was a rough time for automotive performance). On the other hand, the '33 Ford was just meant to work, with little pretense for anything else. One of the hosts describes it as "the simplest, most difficult" vehicle he's driven because of the tricky double clutchwork necessary to shift gears. Scroll down to watch the video and try to decide which of these two American classics you would rather have in your garage.

Fiat Chrysler posts record Q3 profit thanks to U.S. trucks and Jeep

Wed, Oct 28 2020

MILAN — A rebound in car production in Fiat Chrysler on Wednesday reported record third-quarter earnings as production returned to nearly pre-pandemic levels. The Italian-American automaker, which is finalizing its full merger with French rival PSA Peugeot, reported a net profit in the three months ending Sept. 30 of $1.4 billion (1.2 billion euros). That compares with a loss of 179 million euros a year earlier. The carmaker reported adjusted earnings before tax and interest in North America of 2.5 billion euros. That offset deepening losses in Europe, Asia and at its Maserati luxury marquee. Latin America, the only other region to post a profit, saw it narrow by two-thirds to 46 million euros. “Our record results were driven by our teamÂ’s tremendous performance in North America,” CEO Mike Manley said in a statement. Overall, the carmaker said global earnings before tax and interest were a record 2.3 billion euros despite a 6% fall in revenues to 26 billion euros. Global shipments were down 3%, due largely to plant retooling in North American to produce the new Jeep Grand Wagoneer in the luxury SUV segment and the discontinuation of the Dodge Grand Caravan classic minivan. Fiat Chrysler announced earlier Wednesday that its merger with PSA Peugeot is on track to be finalized by the end of the first quarter of 2021, as planned. To meet regulatory concerns, the French carmaker is selling a small stake in a components maker to get below 40% ownership. The new automaker, to be called Stellantis, will be the fourth biggest producer in the world. Earnings/Financials Chrysler Dodge Fiat Jeep RAM Citroen Peugeot

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles: The next five years

Tue, 06 May 2014

Unless you've been living under a rock for the past 24 hours, you've no doubt read about all of the big future product news coming out of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles today. We had individual brand reports from Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram, Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Maserati and even Ferrari, but in the interest of simplifying and summarizing, we're going to list out the hard facts once more. Of course, with all of this still off in the future, there's still the possibility that a few changes will be made. But as of what we know right now, here's what's coming, and what's going away.
