Drive Customs | 2004 Dodge Ram 1500 "Super Bee"

This 2004 Dodge Ram 1500 "Super Bee" is the ultimate in modern muscle! It began as a "Rumble Bee," a
special edition Dodge truck, and morphed into a one-of-a-kind show vehicle. The exterior received a custom
paint job of Solar Yellow with Brilliant Black Crystal Pearl fanged racing stripes outlined in a silver metallic
hand pinstripe. The rear ground effects were modified to fit around the dual-tipped exhaust, which is
surrounded by a custom aluminum trim piece that matches the gas door. In the front, one-off stainless steel
grills were fabricated for the hood scoop insert and bumper.

The interior of the truck features a Katzkins Tuscany leather kit in dark graphite with custom yellow suede
inserts, yellow stitching and Super Bee logos embroidered on the seat backs. The headliner and visors
were upholstered in a suede that matches the factory color. Speaker rings and lower inserts in the doors
were painted to match the exterior of the truck, and above the armrest received a touch of yellow suede. On
the dash sit three pods wrapped in graphite vinyl with painted yellow trim pieces that house CDT Audio 19
mm tweeters, 3" GOLD mid-drivers and center channel speakers. CDT Audio 1" tweeters can be found in
the A-pillars, while pods upholstered in graphite vinyl and yellow suede rest under the seats and hold the
crossovers and blending modules. CDT Audio 7" GOLD mid-bass speakers are in the factory locations in
the doors while 10" GOLD subwoofers are housed in a custom box behind the seats. The box is upholstered
in the same graphite vinyl with yellow suede and painted trim rings to match the rest of the truck. Directed
A1004 and D2400 amplifiers power the whole system.

A Kinetik 80 amp power supply and Stinger 1 farad capacitor allow the stereo to perform without draining
the truck's battery or requiring engine power. An AudioControl DQS equalizer sits in the underseat storage
compartment, covered in etched plexiglass and backlit with yellow LEDs. Perhaps the focus of the truck's
interior is the radio bezel. Painted yellow, it showcases a Kenwood 8120 complete with Bluetooth,
navigation and iPod. Where the storage pocket used to be now houses a custom compound motorized iPod
compartment with an etched plexiglass window backlit by yellow LEDs. The iPod is controlled via external
switches on the deck and also by the Clifford 3.3x alarm remote. The alarm also boasts a remote start, LED
control and pops the tonneau cover like a trunk. Other features of the truck include heated MUTH signal
mirrors, Super Bee emblems and decals, and black suede with the words Super Bee embroidered in yellow
on the underside of the tonneau cover.
