I know it is on a Mustang 3.7L, but maybe the company that made it might have something for your truck. It sounds damn good to me.

Don't listen to these V8 can heads. All that matters if you like how it sounds. Afterall, you are the one that pays for the truck.

Best case scenario is you will make it sound like a diesel.
Tuners have a decent ghost tune for the 3.7's....and yes they sound awesome for a v6. You tube them boys

How did you set up your exhaust? As in, is it one or two mufflers? Is it a SIDO muffler? Did you do a Y after it? And what size tips did you put on it? I like the sound from inside the cab and it looks great!! The white rims go great with the white paint

I think that truck has been on the lot longer because its a scab rather than a 3.7.

One dealer told me they stopped ordering scabs except in XLs because they don't sell. Shame, I like the scab configuration and no B pillar.

Trade it in for a 4x4. The amount of money you lose in the trade will be significantly less than the parts and labor it would cost to convert a 4x2 into a 4x4.

I had a 2012 SCREW with a 3.7L. Plenty of power if you stick your foot in it. No problems on the freeway. A real pain in the *** driving around town in traffic. I drive for months without getting over 50mph, so city driving is the primary consideration. Idleing along at 15-20 and things open up a little, push on the accelerator a little and it just lugs the engine and doesn't speed up, push a little harder and it seems to slow down, push a little harder and it downshifts 3 gears and takes off. Also got about 14.5 MPG.
I traded it in for a 2013 5.0 L , and worth every penny of the beating I took on trade in. Driveability much improved and it seems to get a little better milage in town.
