Default Gibson Extreme exhaust too loud?

I searched, but didnt get the info I was looking for. Im looking into the Gibson Extreme Dual exhaust, and Im wondering if it will be too much. Is it loud enough to be annoying? Is it loud enough to annoy the neighbours?

Thanks

At first I was skeptical if you were truley infact worried about it being to loud, then the question of being loud enough comes into play. Then I realize you wanna **** off your neighbors!...aaahahahahaa

I'm not a big fan of Gibson, however, I don't think anything they produce for the Ram is over the top loud. The only thing that is overly loud on these truck sis a straight pipe.
If you get a Gibson, spend the extra dollars and get a stainless system.

It's a bit louder than my FM Super 44, but not as loud as a Cherry Bomb Extreme. Then comes in the matter of taste, personally I prefer the sound of Flowmaster over Gibson, but that's just me.

Thanks guys

The only concern I have is drone and the MDS system. I've read mixed views on this...

Can you disable the MDS?

Man when i bought my muffler... I forgot that the pipe goes 2 into one shortly after cat.... So I bought two duromax mufflers.... had to take one back then went down there to put the one on and it wouldnt fit so I ended up driving around with no mufflers lol just cats for a few days just to listen to it lmao god it felt good sounded so bad ***.... then I pulled my old exhaust apart used the old clamps and when to a muffler shop to get my extension pip and down turn for my outlet after that i was pretty impressed.... if i were you id cut the effin resonator off rock ur stock muffler for a bit like i did and save money for lt headers and a borla full exhaust system.... my buddy did it and man the power increase and sex appeal is off the effin charts....

also u can listen to anything off of youtube if they have it they have tested it on a hemi truck..... as far as the gibson dual.... well with a 6.1 cam it would be way to grumbly... but i dont recoment the 6.1 cam to anyone i bought my truck with it already done... I think it prolly costs way to much.... if i had it my way id be rocking straight pipes and long tube headers

Yeah, but you need a Superchips or other tuner with the ability to shut it off.

I heard some on Youtube and they sound like crap to me. They cackle and sound about as crappy as the SLP systems.

SLP's sound great at idle. That's it. Shoot me when an SLP exhaust is being revved.
SLP's sound terrible. They sound, well, like there's no muffler!
