Well yeah... it was just a name used for the package... just like they used BOSS for the sister of this truck, which was a Ford F-150!

RE: GTX Package now on Quad Cab!
Yeah this is getting retarded... dodge has a tonne of different pretty packages, but no real performance options. I mean, I am an old muscle car guy two... ( Am a fan of 455 hos. MOPARS pretty rare round these parts) and this is stupid, nothing but cosmetic differences... and then they are being *** clowns to the aftermarket, and cheaping out on warranties because of CAIS and headers?!!?!? I mean, they want to promote a muscle truck high performance machine, but then they wont kinda look the other way when their customers go looking elsewhere for some performance. I mean, really, Chevy and Ford, they must have more confidence in their engines because they DO look the other way when people have a few performance mods on their vehicles. Are the chevy and ford engines more capable than the hemi?
Hemis are starting to get a reputation that all the power that CAN be gotten out of them, has been, and thats why DC is holding back the aftermarket, because the moment someone puts a nos kit, super charger, or anything like that on their hemi, its gonna blow sky high, and they are just waiting to get the 6.1 out there. Which is total crap as far as I am concerned.

OK, to be real clear: DCX is NOT offering it as an option. Rumble Bee, "Hemi Sport", and SRT-10 are the official DCX muscle truck packages for Ram. This GTX thing is somebody else's idea, and a few dealers (note: a few) have apparently agreed to distribute them.
I don't like it either, but this particular abomination isn't Chrysler's fault.

Conversion or not, if DC is offering it as an option then it is an abomination of the name.

i agree with 71roadrunner about the gtx. i like the paint and graphics but why name it gtx. why not painting some hemi decals and leave it at. who in thier right mind will pay and extra 10k or so for a paint job and some decals. lol its just stupid. but scg you really think the rumblebees are stupid. i think its creativity. they didnt use the superbee name but they changed it and the bee logo as well. p.s. bring it with that dekota i got a stuck 04 hemi.
