Default May swap Exhausts

May consider buying a Borla exhaust but think ill miss the throaty'ness and the mean rumble off the Flowmaster.. I enjoy changing things up every now and then though.

When I think of biting the bullet to a Borla someone always comments on the sound it currently has. Which sets me back..

I like the sound of the silver truck better...the second truck is a little too loud for me.

i would not change an exhaust system until it was needed. if you go borla, it will be the last exhaust you will ever need to buy for your truck.

I like the sound of neighbors F-150. Has sort of a crackling rumble sound but not loud.

I kind of doubt that being most are never satisfied whether or not it's the best in the world or if it'll last for life. Second, most stainless equipped exhaust "are" meant to last a life time. That being said, if you wait until it is needed you'll never have the sound that you're looking for because you'll be in your next truck by then, lol!

Yep...been listening to it on my truck for some time now, lol! I like em, sounds quieter than the ones in the vids here but I'd still like it a little quieter. I think I'd like to try something closer to stock but stay at 3" because I like the sound of cfms and rpms over exhaust...guess I'm getting a little too old for it, lol!

I love my Flowmaster 70 muffler. It's quiet at idle and cruising inside the cab but it screams when I stomp on it.
