Default Ran into a Quad Cab Dually with stacks

I was cruising on Interstate 80 in N.Cali, the Bay Area when this white Quad Cab Dually passed my by. The truck had dual stacks but they were mounted outside of the bed, right and left side, behind the rear doors. The truck passed me in a manner that led me to believe the driver was saying, " Hey, look at me!!" The guy moved over to the slow lane and I moved into the fast lane and passed him, just normal driving. Ilooked in my rearview mirror and saw the guy move abruptly from the slow lane over to the fast lane and started acclerating pretty hard. I was a pretty good distance ahead and it was obvious that he was trying to catch me. Just as I reached my exit he blew past me again and was looking at me.I kinda thoughtthe guy was being a jerkand was trying to show-off. Then Irealized that he must have been jealous because he didn't have a Megacab and must behating life. Whatever the case I found it rather odd.The stacks he had looked nice but the sound coming from his exhaust did not even sound like a CTD.

Just thought I would share this with you'all.

Wait .... the guy had the stacks mounted on the OUTSIDE of the truck??

I can't even picture that other than the Lil Red Express. That must have looked rediculious !!

If I ever put a flat bed on, I think I would mount them infront of the bed where the bed sticks out past the cab. I've measured and I believe it is poosible to do and still be able to use the rear doors.

There is a blue quad cab around here that I saw with a single stack on the passenger side that was mounted with sometime of clamp. It wasnt even chrome or anything though, it was just bent exhaust pipe stuck on the side of the truck. Looked horrible.
