hmmm, to each his own I guess, not my cup of tea but I guess some people will do anything to keep from cutting a big hole in their bed, like putting smaller holes on the outside of the bed

I don't think it looks THAT bad folks. Besides, he went through some effort and expense to set it up that way so I am sure there is some personal reason for that. Finally, before we get some more comments that may not be so well thought out, there is at least one member here who has a similar setup and he had valid reasons for why he went that way as well. (Not cutting bed, tool box, aux fuel tank are just a few that come to mind not to mention fifth wheel)

I say to each his own. At least it is chrome and looks to be done well and not a ghetto patch job.

I'm not a fan of stacks anyway. They *all* look like that to me.

Looks different, but the worst part, he drilled the stack brackets into the bed.

The unfortunate part would happen when he jackknifes that gooseneck into them. And i would have to agree with Mike's statement. To each his own.

I never said it was pretty, and yes, I like the stacks in the bed. The dodge dose look good, its a gas motor though.

Practical but not my style. I love the look of stacks but don't want the white trailer I pull to get filthy, and then I couldn't use my hard bed cover. So hey, if it works for him, so be it.

Me too Mike, I seen a Dodge with, i,m estimating, 8 foot stacks coming out of his bed, straight up. He could have pulled a big rig trailer and blew the smoke over it.

I know what you mean Mike. Now it wouldn't be a close run between dumb stacks and stupid ricer. I am sure stupid ricer would win hands down because there are so many of them. Wings on cars that will never be fast etc.

One of my favorites is the stupid body effect kits with the busted front air dam from trying to pull off the main road and go through a drive through. "I need a police report for my damages for a claim." My response, good luck buddy.
