Question purchasing online

I've pretty much decided on getting a Gibson Super Truck exhaust system for my '97 4.6. Now, can anyone recommend some good sites online (reliable and cheap) to purchase from??

Thanks in advance.

will work on sig once i get some modifications on my new (used) truck.

I ordered my Gibson supertruck from: http://www.truckperformance.com/
Good service and prompt delivery (about a week). Others have commented about Gibson's poor packaging and I agree...they throw everything in a big box and don't put in enough packing to keep things from moving inside the box. Mine came UPS and was in good shape but I can see why some shipments get messed up.

Question

Thanks for the site Marv1, they have it for $259 plus $18 shipping, not bad in my books. I noticed that both of you have the Super Truck Exhaust. Are you both happy with it? Do you wish you had gone with something else now that you have it? I certainly hope not :-) It's not too loud in the cab is it? Would appreciate your input on the exhaust from some owners. Thanks in advance.

Love it! Well... not too loud in the cab? Well... not for me. It is noticable. I like it but you will hear it inside and out. Mostly on acceleration. Not bad at steady speed. Low rumble. Roars on romp. It sound's like an old timey V8.

I like the looks of the Gibson Super Truck and it went on easy. The sound is probably a few db's too loud inside the cab when I get on it but at cruise there is just a little increase in sound over stock. I get lotsa compliments on it for the sound and looks. I'm not sure of any savings in gas mileage because of the gas used just to hear the sweet sound!
