Ram has announced the U.S. pricing for the all-new Rumble Bee lineup of muscle trucks, with the entry-level Rumble Bee powered by the 5.7-liter HEMI V-8 starting below $60,000 before destination ($2,795).

“The 5.7-liter HEMI V8 lands in showrooms first with a sub-$60K MSRP, hitting right at the heart of the truck market. Some will keep it stock. But let’s be honest—most won’t. A lot of brands try to fight that. We don’t. We embrace it. And we’re not just supporting it; we’re fueling it through Direct Connection,” said Tim Kuniskis, head of American Brands, SRT Performance, North America marketing and retail strategy.

With the introduction of the Rumble Bee muscle trucks, Ram now offers six widebody, performance-focused, half-ton pickups.

The Ram 1500 Rumble Bee lineup brings American muscle to the pickup segment with four distinct offerings, company officials stated in a press release. The entry point is the 395-horsepower, 5.7-liter, HEMI V-8 Rumble Bee, followed by the 470-horsepower, 6.4-liter “Apache” HEMI V-8 Rumble Bee 392. The Rumble Bee 392 Track Pack adds enhanced aerodynamics, handling and braking capability.

At the top of the lineup sits the most powerful, quickest and fastest V8-powered production pickup ever: the 777-horsepower Rumble Bee SRT, the company said. With a 6.2-liter supercharged HEMI V-8, quick-shifting eight-speed automatic transmission, E-spool electronic locking differential and full-time four-wheel drive with Launch Control, the all-new Rumble Bee SRT is capable of a 170-mph top speed, 0-60 mph in 3.4 seconds and a 11.6-second quarter mile.

The Rumble Bee range uses a unique frame that shortens the wheelbase by 13 inches and reduces flex by 10%. The result is better handling and body control, with stubby, muscular looks from the exclusive Quad Cab, short bed, widebody configuration. Despite its proportions, the Rumble Bee muscle trucks maintain four-door practicality, a usable bed and real-world truck capability, including towing of up to 8,890 pounds and payload of up to 1,160 pounds, noted the release.

On the inside, each Rumble Bee shares performance-focused driver controls, including a flat-bottom steering wheel, console-mounted shifter and aluminum paddle shifters. Available technology features include Active Driving Assist (L2), a 14.5-inch Uconnect 5 center touchscreen, and a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster with a configurable, full-color Head-Up Display (HUD).

The Rumble Bee lineup first launches with the 5.7-liter HEMI V-8 in late 2026, followed by the Rumble Bee 392, 392 Track Pack and Rumble Bee SRT in the first half of 2027.
