I was looking at the lightning but was told that I would need another car for the winter. I know the only way to get the power of the lightning would be to get the srt-10 but I don't have the mone for that. I like the Ram Quad Cab Hemi with the sport package with the same color bumper and "lip kit" but even with the Hemi it only does 15.7 sec. So then I was looking at the rumble bee which is nice but it doesn't have everything I want.
I guess my first question is, can I get the rumble bee in leather? If not, wouldn't it be the samething if I got a Ram 1500 single cab with the hemi package and the sports package so that way I can get the options I want like leather?
What is the 1/4 time of the rumble bee and is it the same as the single cab hemi package?

The rumble bee package is merely cosmetic, it has NO performance differences when compared to a 2WD reg cab short bed HEMI. Sooo, get the reg 2wd I just mentioned with the sport package and 20x9's, add the 'lip kit' you mentioned, and voila a rumble bee without decals but with a waay lower price. This way you can add the leather etc. Also if you really want the rumble bee decals just get alocal vinyl shop to make em...i know a few guys on here have. This will leave you with more money in your pocket, faster quarters than a 4x4 quad, and you wont have to drive a F*rd. WOOT

It seems that the SL and SLT don't have a leather option. I can always get leather added even if I get a SL, it would be an extra, right?
So that bumper is part of the Hemi sport accent package?
What is the difference between the three levels?
I know I should go to the dealer, I just want to know now because I can't wait till tomorrow to know. :)

The 20's require a 3.92 rear axel ratio I believe, and trust me, you want it. You wont be able to build the truck you want online with the dodge tools though. The SPORT PACKAGE is basicly body color mouldings bumper etc with chrome billet grill, yes you want that. Then theres a "Hemi sports package" thats kindof a dealer thing that you cant add online. That package gives you the hood scoop, front lip, and side skirting/running boards like the Bee, again you would want that.
ST is base. You cant get sports package, good stereo, leather or 20's with the ST. It sucks, dont buy it.
SLT is the most common trim. It is midrange, you can have the 20's, sport package, good audio etc, but NOT leather. I LOVE mine its got all the goodies.
Laramie is top of the line, You can get any of the options you want, plus leather if you so desire.
I quickly built a Laramie 'rumble bee' with everything you want minus the hemi sport option as it's not online currently, and got 30,970 USD. You should be able to get it for cheaper.

I have two 04 Hemi rams and neither came with leather. One silver single cab and one rumble bee. I ordered the leather seat kit from a company found on ebay. They came with the HEMI plastic logo in the back part of the seat. Looks awesome. I want some leather for the rumble bee, with a bee or something in the seat back. Haven't seen one out yet. The covers were 679.00 Not too bad.
