Have you tried driving it in tow mode and manually shifting? Your next video you should drive over your Vid Cam! Eh, blows doors off of all those
Toys on the road ha?

Yeah i've driven it while manually shifting and it doesnt really make it sound better becuase it's so loud when your are creeping and again around 1800 rpms. Leaving it in 1st and creeping is alot of fun though..

Sounds amazing on the highway! This is by far the best sounding highway system i've heard because when the mds kicks in the exhaust quiets down and there is no drone. It's louder than stock but not by much as long as you keep the rpms down, now if you're climbing a hill and cruising at 60-70 then yes it'll drone but it's all in how you let your truck shift while driving

I used to live in Hawaii as well. I lived in a bunch of places but the last place I lived was Niu Valley. You guys know who Rich Julian is?

Ya i've heard of him, he's a surfer who's crippled, pretty good too...

Does the TRX not come that way or did you change the bumper?

I opted not to have the cutouts because i wanted side exit exhaust and the offroad package didnt come with them anyway so it worked out nicely

i dont have either. i have a SLT with the Big Horn package and it was included.

Did you remove the resonator?
