Tips: Stainless vs Chrome

Im having dual exhaust put on my 00 F-150. I was just wondering what the big difference was between stainless steel and chrome tips. I know they should sound the same, but is there a difference in how long they will last? Or is just a matter of personal choice? I want this system to be done right and last a long time so thats why I ask. Thanks for all the help.

Go Stainless. The chrome will and does rust.

Stainless is the way to go. It won't rust near as easily, if at all. It looks sharp still if you decide to polish it up.
