Well ive been B***** about getting a new muffler. One that is loud but isn't to loud. And well... Exhuast took a dump on me today,literally... Me and my friend were splashing through puddles on the street and this happened. I like the sound of no muffler but its just way to loud for me or my mom and possibly my neighbors. lol

Also signed up for a photobucket account to keep all the Ram pictures. Not sure why imageshack is trying to charge to upload photo's?

the car behind me tends to disappear and all I can see is the top of their windshield over the tailgate.

camera is a license plate mount
Post up some pics of the installation and how it performs if you can! Been considering doing this.

Took off the old rusty muffler, woah its suck a B***** to get off.Im still wondering how the first one even came lose, That bolt looked rusted worse than the rear. Also took the Ram to the outdoorsman store to buy some binoculars. The neighbors that also drive a dodge seem to want to adjust there window each time I drive up or pull off or find ways to watch me. Such as letting the cat out, Or taking out the trash, and talking on the phone. Somehow there always outside when im out there to. Ima show them who the real creeper is now.

Don't forget the parabolic microphone too. Then you can hear them, as well as see them.

Gassed up the old 98 on mid grade and ran it on a 50 mile trip (it did better on the way back). I hauled the wife some furniture home with it. K.

Absolutely nothing to the RAM today... She's taking a week off, as the wife is out of town, and I have the Dart.

Replaced the starter.

had my buddy use a tow strap hooked to his truck to get my truck rolling so we could bump start it.

got it bump started and drove it in the shop where it was nice and warm/dry, put it on the twin post, got it in the air and swapped out the starter.

fires up on its own once again!

Been a while since I posted last but since then I have installed a remote start, tinted the windows, ripped out all the carpet to rhino line the inside, where I found my seat bracket had rusted through and broken, sanded, patched and painted the interior, and sanded the entire truck to get ready for a new paint job. I also took the throttle body off and cleaned it. Doing all I can with what sun I have in the great state of Washington.
