Muffler Dead.....I think

OK, I am currently moving across country from VA to AK. Whilst enroute there is a strange tinny sound coming from the rear of the vehicle during low RPM's. In high RPM in disappears. Finally the sound was getting progressively worse by the time I am in Wall South Dakota it was starting to sound like the little japanese cars with the coffee can exhaust. I placed a call to Midas in Rapid City SD. The folks there tell me the exhaust is a special order item from Ford and the Ford folks in Rapid City said it would take 2 days to order.

I thanked them for their time and went on my way, now am I SOL when it comes to getting a stock exhaust for a 2005 F250 w/5.4? Is this just a Ford exclusive part or can any shop order one. I am not looking for anything but stock quiet exhaust. Have enough toys that make the noise......

A muffler shop can get you a quiet muffler. Also, check for exhaust leaks.

This is true, the guy at the shop said he could have thrown something underneath for now but the stock F series exhaust is a very robust system and I may need to replace his system in about 18 months. The guy was very honest and could have sold me anything off the shelf.
