Not a huge maggy fan but I couldn't agree more. Everyone and their dog around here has 40 series flows out the back. My Imco was dumped so it sounded a little different, but I ended up cutting it off because I was sick of sounding like the truck setting next to me.

Exactly, you see where I'm coming from. I was sooo tired of my hearing "my truck" drive by while I was sitting at a light, now everyone knows my truck, and it doesn't sound like anyone else's I have ran into. And I live in N.C and a flowmaster does good to last 2 years here on trucks.

Listen to my vids, I love my maggie, and they are plenty deep and loud, they are just about everything I want from a exhaust.

The Roush Offroad is Borla made, which is higher quality and much more costly than your magnaflows. I did love the sound, but not as much as the Flowmaster. Personal preference.

If they ever legalize long tube headers and high flow cats in CA, then i might put the Roush back on.

Well, If you don't mind your truck sounding like almost every other F150 around then flowmaster is for you, but I like mine to be different, and not sound like all my friends and their friends F150s.

My first custom exhaust was Flowmasters, Super 44s and hi-flow cats on a 6.0L Silverado. It sounded unique with the new Super 44 muffler, and was real loud with the cats, but it was like every other Chevy out there, loud and Flowmaster sounding.

I love my F-150's exhaust. The only thing i'm not happy with is its not quite as loud as my Silverado. But with a dead silent idle, then accelerating & a loud, clear, & real heavy deep sound echoing through the intersections and parking lots, its f'n sweet! Definitely one of the best exhaust decisions I ever made. Click my vid to listen.

Just take it to a shop and tell them what you want and they will bend the pipe, it will take at least two "sticks" of pipe so tailpipes are not cheap. You can either run true duals or a si/do, I prefer true duals w/x-pipe, but that takes the price up alot.
