They call that the "Rumble Bee" edition. It's just a cosmetics package.

Please say your kidding me. "Rumble Bee" Of course, I drive a "Vortec High Output" edition, so they probably laugh at me too.

As Scooby Doo would say "Ruh roh its a Rumble Bee".

No, I'm not kidding. My good friend is a dealer at a local Dodge stealership.

Man, I just thought I was upset when I only got 280rwhp out of mine. 180 and I would have really been .

Someone at work told me that if you power-braked one of the newer Hemis, they would throw a code and the check engine light would come on!? Anyone else hear something like this? I hope it ain't so...

Lots of Rumble Bees in my area. Only a few SRT-10s though and I never seem to be going in the same direction as them when on the freeway.

The best that I heard the SRT 10 run is 12.8-9 in the 1/4. It is also a finiky truck to drive because all of the power and its a 6 speed. Those numbers were at a track and the best numbers it put down. I think that on road conditions they are more like a mid 13 second truck.
