A Rumble Bee designed by Chip Foose
Custom car designer Chip Foose has unveiled a special version of the 2027 Ram 1500 Rumble Bee. It is a street-truck-style pickup, tuned to perform well on both public roads and the drag strip.
The truck is the result of a collaboration between Foose and Fox Factory vehicles. Notably, it still carries a 3-year/36,000-mile bumper-to-bumper factory warranty. For buyers who want a customized truck but worry about losing warranty coverage, that is a clear advantage.
Styling, engine, and suspension
On the outside, Foose adds a front splitter, a tailgate spoiler, side trim, and a full decal package. The truck comes with 22-inch wheels wrapped in wide 305 mm tires.
Under the hood, buyers can choose a supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 making 705 hp. The upgrade uses a larger SRT supercharger that raises boost pressure, pushing output to as much as 1,000 hp. Both options use a dual MagnaFlow exhaust system.
The suspension comes from Ridetech and includes adjustable coil-overs and a lower ride height than the standard truck. The dampers have been retuned to improve cornering. The rear control arms are also designed to reduce wheel hop under hard acceleration.
Pricing
The base Ram Rumble Bee starts at 62,790 USD, while the Foose version starts at 154,990 USD. That is a steep price. In return, the truck makes more than twice the power of the Rumble Bee with the 5.7-liter V-8. Buying aftermarket parts piecemeal wouldn't be cheap either, and you wouldn't get a factory warranty.
The Ram Rumble Bee Foose Edition shows that V-8 street trucks still have a place of their own. The main selling point isn't just the 1,000 hp figure but a modified package backed by the manufacturer's warranty. At 154,990 USD, it will surely appeal mainly to collectors, but other automakers may follow this approach.
