Hey everyone, new dude here .. Recently sold my 2002 Lightning and picked up this girl. She's a 2006 4x4 Lariat w/ 51k miles. Not the best pic, but you get the idea lol... Look forward to learning and contributing what I can to the forum.

 

Welcome! Jump right in.

 

Looks like a nice truck and has low miles too!

 

welcome from another norcal member!!

 

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your amazing purchase! She is in great shape for an 06. Looking forward to see you transform her to your taste. Enjoy the driving and keep us posted.

 

Welcome to the site! Where abouts in northern CA are you? Bay area here

 

I am in the bay area too

 

Welcome to the forum!

 

Thanks.. Im in Roseville, near Sacramento... Just like everyone, I have plans for her but nothing too crazy. Besides fixing some cosmetic things and little stuff, I want to get some exhaust on her. She's TOO DAMN quite lol. I was looking at the ROUSH off-road cat-back but don't want the side exit exhaust nor the dual exit from under the bumper. I also had my eye on a BORLA XR-1 muffler that I would probably have to just weld-in so that I could keep it looking stock-ish. Thoughts, opinions? Anyways, to you guys!

 

Matt, not sure of the best for your rig but, post this in the 2004+ forum and I'm sure they will chime in. Borla is a great system though from what I've heard.

 

I ended up ordering the Banks Monster Exhaust from Summit. I probably spent more time than I should have on Youtube looking at different setups lol. This video was the one that sold me.


I could't really find a negative review on this system and I liked the way it kept the factory location. UPS shows that it should be delivered today.

I'll make a new thread with some pics of the before/after hopefully this weekend!
