    Hahaha. If there was a spectrum I wonder what brand would be on the feminine side and which would be on the alpha male side.

    I agree. A V6 is really never going to produce a good "truck" exhaust note regardless of the system.

    I see you have your original spare under there. I put a 285 tire under my truck bed as a backup and have noticed that it comes pretty close to the OEM last quarter of the pipe leading to the tail pipe. I could cut it where it goes up and over the back axle, that way the tire is not too close to the pipe. Do you intend to get a larger spare?

    I have the same exhaust and a 275/70/17 spare. It’s tight but not touching.

    Borla is the best of them ALL but still not great. MBRP is straight garbage and sounds like ass. I had the Borla S Cat Back and although it wasn't horrible it did sound like an over blasted trumpet beyond 4.5k RPM's. Plus it was drowning out the nice growl I was getting from the intake.. I removed it and went back to stock. Ahhhhhhhh...much better.

    If you want your truck to sound bad ass ditch the v6 and drop a small block in it. THAT IS THE ONLY WAY

    I have the MBRP turn down that exits in front of the rear axle. Yes its stupid and loud but it cracks me up every time I fire up my 2021 ORDCSB with manual trans. Throw in the AFE Momentum GT with the added air scoop and I have sounds coming out of everywhere.
