In the winter I would recommened to drive this just because it does have 4wheel drive which is very much needed with Minnesota winters. You can get very good grip with how the front end is leaning forward and back end up. It all comes down to the tires tho. If you have crap tires then your winter will suck but if you have big, thick tires you'll recieve more grip. I don't usually drive my truck in the winter time just because I have low pro's on my truck and very little tread. But the Dodge Rumble Bee can definitley handle snow, with the Hemi engine in it. Most people have to put sand bags in the back of their truck, but I never needed to. But unlike most cars, they don't have 4wheel drive so its harder for them to get around. I enjoy being able not being that person who ends up in the ditch because they didnt have 4wheel drive or good tires. In my opinion my truck deserves an 9/10 for winter driving.

Test Drive
I drive this truck usually daily for school, going back and forth, and to hang with buddies. I enjoy this truck because it offers the ability to sit higher then most trucks and yet have a sporty edge of an Audi. When I take off I don't have to give it much gas to get up and go. I can easy spin the tires without holding the breaks if I'd like to. It has very good controlling at low speeds as well as high speeds, like on the freeway. It is very mobile since it has 4x4, so I can still go off road even though its made for pavement. I have never taken my truck off-roading, because I have 22 low pros, which dont give me very good tread or traction in the mud. It can handle sharp corners dece, it doesnt sit low to the ground so its not the best on tight turns, but its not the worst. Since Minnesota is getting into winter, that means snow is approaching, and this is the worst time for bad tires. Thanks to this truck you have very tractionable tires, that perform the best. But like any tire they get worn out over time so you will have to change them from Summer to Winter.
dodge rumble bee review
Most people when they see this truck think its awesome, but not everyone has the same view. When people see this truck it is unmistakable and easy to see. It can be a very flashy truck in some people eyes. They see the Bee logo on the two back bed sides, and know. They come with regular stock tires that are not the best, but they get by. Once you open up the door the interior is nothing you have seen before. It comes with its own yellow dash plaque, with yellow radio face. You can also buy many different interior yellow parts that belong with the rumble bee. The safety features are not "up to date" but are signifacant enough that you will be fine, if you get in a accident with it. The next thing is the performance part. It comes with a 5.7L Hemi Magnum motor, which is stock. This produces about 345 H.P. and 375lbs of torque. This is very powerful in a truck and is well deserved. The tranny in these are very reliable and you can put well over 100,000 milese and it still runs like teh day you got it. I find this truck to be very nice and reliable. I would recommened people to buy this truck if they ever get the chance to.
Rumble bee costs
The Rumble Bee costs usually around 20 grand. I got mine for about $18,500, which was a fair price. I think that this a good price for this truck. I mean your buying a specail edition truck, that only came out in 2 years, and with only two colors to pick from. Compared to a 2005 dodge ram truck (which is around 13 grand) you pay about 5 grand more for all of the upgrades you get. In my eyes is quit a bit more but it's definitely worth it, because the value of a Rumble Bee could increase in 20 years, because of the special edition. If you can buy one i say that you should buy it, because there are not a lot of them and a very few of them are for sale.

My Rumble Bee
My Rumble Bee is one of a kind. Everyone knows my truck when they see it. It is very noticable in public because no one else in MN has one like me. My truck has two yellow shelby racing strips going from the front to the spoiler. Yes, my truck has a spoiler on it also. On the tailgate it has a custom made Rumble Bee logo which is painted on by a professional. I have modded out my truck also to make it even faster. I put a weapon air intake which adds not a lot but it is usually the first mod people do for their vehicle. I also put a throttle body, bigger cams, bigger injectors, superchip, and exhaust. It is up to about ~480 H.P. and im not sure about how much torque there is, probably around 500 too. I use this as a daily driver through the summer but when winter comes I store it because i dont get very good traction with them and they are 22's. It is very fun to drive around in and all my friends usually want to drive it. In the future I want to add a supercharger to really boost up the H.P.. It would make the truck just that much faster.
