One problem I have with running them out the back is when you go to hook up a trailer and the exhaust is in your face when your hooking up the lights/chains. If you tow often it can be annoying. I like mine coming out in front of the tire. The tips also stay cleaner then they do behind the tire..

mine had duals on it when i bought it. i proceeded to hack them off and put a couple turn downs on. i think it's a cleaner look. and i'm not that "hillbilly" (sorry anyone lol).

also.. parking in deep snow or even water won't stop ur truck from starting, trust me. this is the modern day where engine's have plenty enough power to run.

doesn't really matter to me. as long as it's clean and kept up. personally, i'm gonna do sidepipes... haven't seen too many of those on Rams. which is exactly what i'm goin for. way different from what most people see.

Turn downs are the way to go. I am a very A symmetrical type guy. Everything has to be even. For me to find a shop that will get it to my liking is hard to find. It's easier and cleaner looking if you just do a turn down. No worry about that and tips to clean, etc. Plus, I think it sounds much better without that extra length of pipe. Everyone now a days has dual pipes coming out the back. I mean, they're coming from the factory like that now. Be different, be a half a sleeper. I say that because they can still hear you idle at a light. lol I know they can me with the CB extreme I have.
