    I have a question. You mentioned cutting off the tail pipe. In the state you live the truck will pass inspection with a cut tail pipe?

    Yes that is what I am talking about. In most states it is illegal because the exhaust has to stick out past the body for safety reasons (fumes). Doesn't your state have those laws for inspection?

    Trucks are different from laws for cars, vans, suv. Since the truck cab is the only "passenger" carry part. Anything past that can be chopped off.
