    It's so you'll have clearance when offroading. Sounds wise I've heard bout more cab drone depending on cab configuration & where you cut it off at.

    Yes there is an advantage of trimming the exhaust pipe. ^^^^ If you offoroad and bottom out- yes. The tailpipe can be bent, crushed, and do a number the muffler and cat. But if you mall crawl- no.

    This. So you don't have to crawl under your truck with a hack saw on the trail after you crunched it and your truck isn't running right. If you mall crawl it's just a visual delete for a clean look.
