I used to have a 1997 Dodge Ram 1500 4X4 with a huge "20 gallon drum" muffler on it that weighed about 40 pounds. I hacked that gas-sucking tank off my pipes and installed a 2 1/2" Cherry Bomb. The truck sounded good, but not real loud at cruising speed, but when you opened it up, it sounded pretty damn good. I also got better fuel mileage from the swap.
