Should do;
Search youtube and listen to sound clips of f150 exhausts.
Don't depend on some one else's opinion. You might not like it.

This, picking out a muffler is a pretty subjective, it seems like just about everyone is looking for a different sound. Best bet is to do some research and listen to different setups or youll be doing it more than once...

Yes that's exactly how you do it. You have the option of doing a side exit in front of rear tire which would be simplest. Otherwise you are going to need to get bent pipe to go over your axle. If you have a welder you can weld the pipe together or you can buy some exhaust clamps from Autozone which are cheap. You can even get the pipes from Autozone along with the exhaust hangers.

I did mine myself, it's dumped before the rear axle with a flowmaster. For some reason I can't get the picture to load up. I'll try again when I get to a Wi-Fi connection.
