Single Rear Side Sweep Delima

I have a 2005 Ford F-150 Lariat 5.4L with an stock exhaust system. I am stuck between 3 companies. The Flowmaster Force II, the Gibson Swept Side, and the Magnaflow Cat backs. I want a good deep sound. Similar to the 2008 Cadillac Escalade or to a 4-Stroke ATV/Dirt Bike. If anyone has audio of the exhausts that would really help!

Magnaflow . There is no comparing a V8 exhaust to a quad/dirt bike exhaust, but I know what your explaining, the deep tone of it. Magnaflow is your winner.

The 6.4L Engine on the Escalade. The Magnaflow is also $200 bucks more.

Well worth it too. You should actually look into getting a Harley truck exhaust off an 06 and up for that kinda sound. But of the three you mentioned, get the Magnaflow. Another few options are Dynomax Super Turbo 3" si/so, or JBA, but both are quite a bit louder than a Caddy.

I have decided I am going to get the side sweep behind the rear passenger wheel. I am probably going to get the dual exit behind the rear wheel, just so it doesn't look like OEM. Any good ideas/brands to get.. I would like to keep it on the cheaper side.
