I wonder if they did that as a result of Covid/Supply chain shortages?
Possibly, though I'd like to think Ram just cared enough to give Ram v8 owners a better sounding truck ;)

I doubt that Ram cares!!! The extension pipe without the resonator is cheaper to produce. And I am thinking that is provides a minute amount of reduced exhaust turbulance which which results in a fleet-wide increase in MPG. Win Win... for Stellantis; not you.

Idk why you would spend $1000 for a gt exhaust when you can buy a nice muffler for $50 and have a shop put it on. To each their own I guess.

I've been both routes, each resulted in a good sounding exhaust, though each was different in sound and behavior. If I had a stock 5.7 exhaust and was looking for cat-back system, I would definitely consider the GT system. That said, a simple muffler replacement is a great value.

I just installed my GT exhaust last weekend and am very happy with the results and sound. It sounds great without being to much. Plus its factory so i if i have any issues im covered in my warranty.

The G/T exhaust will work on ALL wheelbases.
The pipe before the G/T exhaust varies in length based on wheelbase and that is not needed for the swap.
