Hey,just wanted to say your ride w/5th wheel really looks great! My first post was asking members for help about towing mirrors.I have decided.to keep the western swing and have the mounts powder coated (stock) and have another mirror adapted to fit the frame. I just retired and was lucky enough to find a 94.5 7.3 F250, 1 owner who was a pro semi truck driver that knew it was much less expensive and had pride in the ride to keep it up..I don't know if it's just this year,but it seems that the noise level in the cab is loud, I saw that you have listed sound proofing ,I been looking at dyno mat ,and knock off brands as well as a product that I was told they use in nascar for heat and noise, called I think Rhino ? It's a roll on, can I ask how you did yours, I enjoy good tunes and being able to talk w/out yelling. Thanks for any info, Tim aka fishngdude.
