![]() On the road, the Rebel G/T is good old-fashioned fun, feeling just as much like a very tall Challenger as it feels like a truck. It’s handily the best part of the truck (if you’re into that sort of thing), but it will annoy your neighbors if you leave for work early in the morning. There are no active valves or quiet modes or anything like that, this exhaust is always on – again, unapologetic. It’s just barely on the acceptable side of obnoxious, and mercifully has zero drone when you’re underway. ![]() ![]() The Ram Rebel G/T crackles to life with a mighty bellow from the 395 horsepower 5.7L Hemi V8, and stomps around grunting like an angry gorilla pounding its chest, mad at the world just because. This exhaust system is honest-to-God perfect… for this application. For $3,495, you get a heaping helping of hardware designed to enhance the Ram driving experience, including but not limited to a bulging hood hiding a massive cold-air intake, console mounted shifter, aluminum shift paddles, aggressively bolstered leather bucket seats, 48-volt eTorque mild hybrid system which offers an extra 130 foot-pounds of torque, and of course, a gloriously exhaust system. The new for ‘22 G/T Package takes the already big, loud, and dumb Ram Rebel and injects a wonderfully superfluous dosage of ridiculousness, borrowing some of the raucous attitude of the biggest, loudest, and dumbest Ram TRX. It is an unapologetically truck flavored truck big, loud, and dumb. They know you don’t actually need them, they know that living with a truck can be a cumbersome ordeal, so they go out of their way to apologize and hide it, with creature comforts and parking assists and a litany of other features to make up for its failings as a vehicle. They know they’re too big, they know they’re too overbuilt, they know they had to be too big and too overbuilt to appeal to your inner testosterone-laden fantasies. It feels like most trucks are constantly apologizing for the fact that they’re trucks.
