New from VA

Greetings from VA. Finally pulled the trigger on a 2014 FX4 and wanted to say hello. It's my first truck and will definitely take some getting used to but I love it so far.

Parking this tank seems to be my first big obstacle but it will come in time

Thanks! I see you're running a Solo Performance exhaust and I was thinking about picking one up myself. How's the drone on it? Their website claims no drone but I'm looking for first hand experience . I definitely want something that provides a little growl under load but is tolerable at high speed since I do mostly highway driving (70 MPH).

No drone from what I can tell. I opted for the Mach-46 muffler as I heard the MR400 setup was pretty darn loud. I love the sound and it is definitely tolerable at 70 MPH. I drive probably 90% highway. I'm glad I went with the Mach-46 muffler replacement because it does get pretty loud when you get on it, but settles down at cruising speed. Here is a review I did with some videos of my setup: https://www.f150online.com/forums/ex...iew-video.html
