Stainless of Aluminized

I finally decided to go with the XX468 MagnaFlow muffler but now should I go with Aluminized or Stainless. Right now I am leaning towards the Stainless but is it worth the extra money. Where I live we might get 1-3 snow falls each year but if there is a chance of snow the dumb *** city will put 2 inches of salt down. Just want to hear what other have chosen.

Thanks

If they use any salt I would go with the stainless Steel. Plus the SS looks sweet. allmost looks like chrome.

I have the Stainless on mine and it is awsome.

I'll second the Stainless. Not a lot of difference in price, but it sure looks purty!

If you decide on stainless the muffler will be the only part of the exhaust system that won't rust. Everything thing else is aluminized. Didn't make sense to me unless the rest of the system was the same material.

Just installed a 14468 today. Stainless is worth the extra $25-$30 if you are planning on keeping it for awhile. Can you say LIFETIME WARRANTEE ??? I knew you could
