I needed a new muffler after my old one broke through the bed. I wanted a fairly boomy sound, not a loud, hollow rice sound. This muffler gave me what I wanted and was looking for. It has a nice low rumble at idle and still maintains a good midrange at higher revs. Sounds great on my truck and really sounds like how a small mid 6 cylinder truck should sound. This is my daily driver, I didn't want anything loud or crazy sporty.
