Default Free flow muffler

What is your recommendation for a free flowing muffler for my 5.4 F150? Hooker or Dynomax are some examples...

I have true dual dynomax bullets on my 5.4L and I like the sound so far.

I have heard so many mixed reviews. Seems as though Flowmaster is one to stay away from. Sounds good at idle but can rust out if you live up North and heard they have a drone at highway speeds.

Anyone know a good muffler that will give a nice deep rumble?
*For now I'd like to just use a muffler to accomplish this and do a full system in the future.
I also have the 5.4 L 4x4 2006.

I had a flowmaster super 10 before my bullets. I didn't like it. I simply didnt like the tone and there was a lot of drone also, I'm up in Minnesota and the salt rusted it out in a matter of a year. The bullets have a nice rumble to them but there is still some drone around 57mph.

I have heard nothing but good things about MBRP products. Do some youtube searches of the 5.4 with different exhaust set ups. That was most helpful for my choosing.

A drone is an unmanned aircraft that is being flown over us right now.. But I have on my tinfoil hat, so they cant see me!

He he he...

I have a flowmaster. Been on for about six months now. Since the CAI and tuner, I dont like it. Im lookin to swap it out very soon.
