Pretty well. It's nice enough out.

I gotta get someone more electrically inclined to check out Pinkie's 3rd brake light. I can't figure the **** out. Power and new bulbs. What is there to go wrong? (aside from the ground but I'm gonna let someone else figure that dumb thing out)

Andy you're typically lurking rather than posting so I'll just say this.

Dad still can't believe who your dad is. He keeps talking about how your dad is a great guy who was great to do work for. He likes you. On the way home he kept making mention of how sharp your truck looks.

Matt I noticed you made mention of an exhaust in your sig.

I got a 4" turbo-back of the highest grade steel they have for 500$ or so. I could look it up on the invoice if you'd like.

Well heres what i had stock, 2 pipes down into the cat 1 out of cat and into muff and 2 out back end of truck. I cut out the stock muff(31in long) and put in a flowmaster 40 series (14in long) and rigged everything together with old piping out the back. I didnt make anything permanent because i didnt know how it was gonna sound so I clamped the connections and they hold up pretty good, that and the rusting from winter. What i would like to do is Headers and all new pipes and true duel exhaust and since iam on the cheap side and heaving rusting on driver side exhaust manifold (bolt heads) i think iam will actually hollow out cat install flowmaster super 44 2-1/2 pipes out the back side where the original ones were.
