It's unique, I'll say that. Green is not my color though.

OK, now DC is starting to really piss me off.[sm=smiley35.gif][sm=smiley7.gif]How dare they take a great muscle cars name and slap it on a frickin' truck.[sm=smiley35.gif][sm=smiley7.gif]I think the truck looks great, but it's just a matter of respect. Lemme guess........the new Charger is really gonna be a Ram package.[sm=smiley35.gif][sm=smiley7.gif]At least when the got the idea to use the Super Bee name, they at least had the decency to change it a little by calling it the Rumble Bee and slightly tweaking the decal.[sm=smiley20.gif]With the GTX rip-off they didn't change one damn thing, the name is the same and so is the decal/emblem.[sm=smiley35.gif][sm=smiley7.gif] Thats the last straw, I see one of those Nazi's that are runnin' the company and his a** is mine.[sm=smiley15.gif]

Now thats what I'm Talkin about the orginal GTX's were mean muscle machines, 426 HEMI's H.O. 6bbl 440's ext.... These New packages are nuttin but cosmetic Sh*t![sm=smiley35.gif] No real performance upgrades and Nothing that even resembles a MUSCLE CAR! Looks Great but isn't right! Nope not right at all![sm=smiley21.gif]

RoadRunner, it wasn't Chrysler Group who named these pickups HEMI GTX... it was all LA WEST's idea... they are a conversion company and can do whatever they want... remember such vehicles as the LA WEST BOSS F-150 (sister to the HEMI GTX), and the Choo Choo Customs SS-10? Its all marketing! As for the Rumble Bee... it has really nothing to do w/ the Super Bee besides the stripe on the bed, so I really wouldn't worry about it!

Conversion or not, if DC is offering it as an option then it is an abomination of the name.[sm=smiley35.gif][sm=smiley7.gif] The Rumble Bee is OK in my book, because of the differences.[sm=smiley20.gif] It is obviously tied to the late great Super Bee, just look at the decals, not just the stripe but the slightly different bee in the stripe.[sm=smiley2.gif]
