Somebody want loud?
Take a 55 gallon steel drum and paint it whatever you think will look like you want if it was permanently sitting in the bed of your truck. Bolt the 55 gallon steel drum to the floor of the bed right behind the cab, cut two 3 inch round holes in the floor of the drum and bed floor. Cut the truck's exhaust just before the Y where they come together and custom bend two pipes from the stubs and point them up through the two holes, let them stick up a few inches into the drum. The gaps between 2-1/2 inch pipes and the 3" holes will allow rain and snow to run out.
If worried about too much rain, put 90 degree turns on the ends, direction doesn't matter as it's all going out the top of the drum eventually.
The drum will not get much hotter than the truck.
It'll be "loud".

If any chambered product, I would buy the Flowmaster Super 10 Series muffler, brand new refined muffler of the 10 Series as of 2010, t-409 stainless also.
Doesn't mean you need to be loud, you just prefer to be.
It is at idle. My old '04 was louder than a 5.4 with straights at idle. 2000rpm+ acceleration it was not however, but flapping toned exhaust is disgusting.
x2. They do sound good for $40.00 each.

Sounds like one hell of- an exhaust stack tip
