50 series flowmaster installed (went back and switdhed to a 40)

Just got back from the muffler shop, had them install a 50 series flowmaster and dump it in front of the rear tire. Cost me 150 installed, another shop wanted 330 to do the same thing. Like the way it sounds, nice and throaty; wish it was a little louder, but thankfully there is very little drone in the cab.

I gotta redo my exhaust.... again... for the 6th time. I always change my mind but since I've set up my exhaust like yours (which has been the third now), I like it more. Gonna be putting my magnaflow dual muffler back on and have a lightning style exhaust.

Right now it's like yours but straight piped... lol
