Thanks, I think you answered my question.
I just want something that sounds better under acceleration. Especially when towing the trailer up steep mountain passes. Thow the 22" into the mix.

Hard to tell from inside the truck that anything was done at all. Outside, my friend noticed the difference, but again, just a little bit "meatier sounding." If you didn't know it was a different muffler, you might not notice.

Often I wish I'd gone with the 18" because I'd like a little more "growl," but when I'm towing the trailer to go camping with the wife, I remember why I like the 22, as well. I think she's happier without the added noise (and, therefore, I am happier, too!).
