Default New exhaust wanted.....Open to suggestions!

I am in the market for a new exhaust system for my 2006 FX4 Crew Cab.

I am looking for a straight dual out the back, with plenty of low sounding rumble. Nothing that is going to shake the windows, but enough to say, I'm here.

I have been searhing around YouTube for clips, but anyone on here have any suggestions??

Thanks!

cut it off at the cats, and run true duals all the way back. no x or h pipe, no mufflers, just pipes. its fairly quiet at an idle but screams when you step on it. and it should only cost about $250-300.

Here's a suggestion.... use the search!!!! The topic of "which exhaust should I buy/use/install/sounds best/etc/etc/etc/ comes up twice a week. Perhaps it would become a "sticky", but no doubt it will still get asked each week; twice!

Sorry for venting.

Agreed. I haven't put duals on mine, however, the first mod I ever did was cutting out the 55 gallon monstrosity of a muffler and welding in a $13 piece of pipe. I really never noticed how quiet it was at idle until tonight.... I just felt like driving slow for once.

It is definitely not quiet during warm up, when you start it in the morning the neighbors will know you are leaving, ha, last year I lived in an apartment complex and after I moved out I ran into the lady that lived right in front of my parking stall and she said she missed me being there because she actually had to use an alarm clock now!!! haha.

Bucko - Apology accepted. But if you don't want to read the same questions over and over, don't read them! I assume you can tell what the post is about by the subject line, right?

I am sure all the posts have been posted before at one point or another.

Not really. This is a good forum; lots of good information. The search can be your best tool in locating opinions, especially when it comes to cold air boxes, exhaust, wheels/rims/tires, and my favorite: what year is best....

I'll make you a deal: I won't read the repetitious posts, if you use the search...deal?
