Jory, how long was the one on Darlene?

I put the 5" resonator and muffler combo on mine and its a little too tame for me. The wife even said she can't hear me coming home anymore. After years of 5" straight pipe I can't decide if I like it or not.

I'm so over the loud truck/vehicle thing. I thought it would last longer but, I'm 28 and can't stand loud @$$ diesel trucks on the street. The more d-bags I see riding around being loud and blowing smoke, the quitter and cleaner I want my truck to run...... without emissions equipment intact, of course

I have the 30" 5" muffler and it's really quiet, the injector pump is still too loud to order at the drive through though

I built a hidden turn down instead of a tip and that helped also, the sound before used to bounce of my gooseneck

I'm tempted to get a 17" resonator, but don't want any drone in the cab, I couldn't talk on the phone with the straight pipe and it sucked
