Factory
built.
The DC650 isn't a kit truck. It starts life as a factory 2026 Ram 1500 Big Horn Night Edition, then Fox Factory — the performance company behind the shocks on everything from mountain bikes to Raptor trucks — transforms it into a complete street performance machine.
The supercharger isn't sourced from a speed shop. It's a Gen 6 Whipple 3.0-liter twin-screw unit, the same technology Mopar's Direct Connection division uses for its crate engine program. The result is 650 horsepower and 600 lb-ft of torque — and because the eTorque mild-hybrid system is retained, the power is consistent and repeatable, not temperamental.
The lowered stance isn't aesthetic either. Ridetech-engineered coilovers drop the truck 3 inches up front and 5.5 inches at the rear. Adjustable Fox shocks allow owners to tune the ride for daily driving or spirited runs. Rear traction bars manage wheel hop under hard acceleration. This is a truck built to perform every time you start it — not just once at the dragstrip.
Supercharged HEMI
The proven 5.7L HEMI V8 with a Gen 6 Whipple 3.0L twin-screw supercharger. Tuned for street use, not just peak dyno numbers. Retains eTorque for launch consistency.
Fox-Engineered Stance
Ridetech coilover suspension lowers the truck 3" front / 5.5" rear. Adjustable Fox shocks. Traction bars. 22-inch wheels wrapped in 305/40R22 street performance tires.
Factory-Grade Build
Every component is engineered to work together. This is not an aftermarket project — it's a professionally integrated upfit with Direct Connection DNA and OEM-caliber refinement.
Full-Size Capability
Available in 2WD and 4x4 configurations. Tow rating of 11,320 lbs. Max payload 1,910 lbs. This truck earns its stripes on Monday as easily as Saturday.
Magnaflow Exhaust
T304 stainless Magnaflow cat-back system with 3-inch primary piping, dual 2.5-inch outlets, black stainless tips. Engineered to sound right without drone on long drives.

Common questionsWhat buyers
What buyers
ask us.
Should I wait for the Rumble Bee SRT instead of buying a DC650 now?
That depends entirely on what you want to do with the truck. If 777 horsepower and a factory SRT badge is the goal, the Rumble Bee SRT is worth waiting for — but you're looking at mid-to-late 2027 at the earliest, no confirmed pricing, no confirmed dealer allocation, and a new platform that won't have a real-world reliability track record on day one. The DC650 gives you 650 supercharged horsepower today, built on a proven 2026 Ram 1500 platform, by Fox Factory using Direct Connection components. For most buyers, the truck in the driveway this weekend beats the truck on a brochure next year.
Is the DC650 a factory Ram, or is it an aftermarket conversion?
It's neither, exactly. The DC650 starts as a factory 2026 Ram 1500 Big Horn Night Edition that Fox Factory then transforms into a complete performance vehicle. Fox Factory is not a speed shop — they're the same company whose suspension technology goes into Ford Raptors, off-road race trucks, and Stellantis performance vehicles. The supercharger components come from Mopar's Direct Connection performance division. The result is OEM-caliber integration, not a bolt-on aftermarket kit. Think of it the same way you'd think of a Shelby Mustang: it starts as a Ford, but it's not just a Ford.
What does Fox Factory Vehicle dealer status mean for me as a buyer?
Fox Factory doesn't sell through every Ram dealer — they work with a select network of authorized Fox Factory Vehicle dealers. Foss Motors is one of the very few Fox Factory Vehicle dealers in New England, which means we can actually order, receive, and sell the DC650. Most Ram dealers near you cannot. If you've been told "we can get one" by a dealer who isn't a Fox Factory authorized partner, ask them to show you their Fox Factory dealer credentials first.
How does the DC650 compare to the old Ram TRX?
The TRX was an off-road beast — 702 horsepower, 6.2L Hellcat, purpose-built to dominate Baja. The DC650 is the opposite philosophy: a street truck. It's lowered, not lifted. It's tuned for pavement performance, not desert running. Where the TRX was a muscle truck pretending to be an off-road truck, the DC650 is a muscle truck that makes no apologies about what it is. If you live on pavement and the TRX's height and off-road setup always felt like paying for things you'd never use, the DC650 was built specifically for you.
Can I still tow and haul with a DC650?
Yes. The DC650 retains a tow rating of 11,320 pounds and a max payload of 1,910 pounds. The performance upgrades didn't come at the expense of the truck's working capability. This is a full-size Ram 1500 with 650 horsepower — it's not a show truck that can only go straight and fast. That said, if commercial towing or heavy payload work is your primary use case, we're happy to walk you through whether the DC650 or another Ram configuration makes more sense for your needs.
Does the Rumble Bee have any advantages over the DC650?
On paper, yes — when it exists. The Rumble Bee SRT's 777 horsepower is meaningfully more than the DC650's 650, and the 3.4-second 0–60 time is genuinely impressive. The factory air suspension, track mode, and Hellcat HEMI powertrain are hardware advantages. The shortened wheelbase gives it sharper handling dynamics. If raw performance numbers are your benchmark, the Rumble Bee SRT will win that comparison — on paper, in mid-to-late 2027, at a price Ram hasn't confirmed, in a dealer allocation that hasn't been determined. The DC650 advantage is that it's real, it's here, and it's available at Foss Motors now.
