and 20BigHorn06 I wont go as far as to say you screwed up, you might not have a problem with your truck sounding like a big 4cyl with exhaust on it, but I can tell ya as soon as I find someone thats swapping out their stock exhaust im taking it.
06' no mods, but I use STP Octane booster every tank w/ 87 gas. I drive 46 to 225 miles a depending on the job site. I get on it as often as must I guess. 14.2 mpg city, 15.8 average, and 17.8 mpg w/ cruise control on @ 1900-2100 RPM average 76 mph. I did put the K&N replacement filter in it. 4000-5000 between Pennzoil changes and have yet to change the plugs, @68,800 miles. Looking forward to getting A In-Tune from Diabolo sport. Not happy to hear about all the responses about adding dual exhaust. Tire swap after first week of side ways action (when not expected!) Firestone solved that. Goodyear , Hankook, both where crap!

EXACTLY^^^^^^^ He may not hear it now, but you can bet he will when he gets a louder exhaust, 07 or not, and it will sound like s**&*
