Hahahahaha didn’t have a choice. I actually work for a living.
You better sign up for that SiriusXm weather service; live radar on that center screen so you can drive around the edge if storms. 🤠

I have been all over the place trying to decide what to do for exhaust. I want a tad louder but kinda like the quietness of stealth. I went ahead and ordered a FactionFab resonator delete pipe for the 21+ 3.5 Ecoboost.

Also, CVF inlet tubes are in the future once they finish developing them which is very soon Jason tells me.

Got a tune coming soon from @Boostking and then I think this build as far as performance will be dialed in for a long while.

I really like my resonator delete. For about $80 at the time. It has some growl but isn't annoying cruising on the highway.

Yeah, the faction fab pipe is direct fitment so you can easily put the resonator back if you want. It’s 169$ but worth it.
I’ve heard some resonator delete comparison videos and you can audibly tell there’s more sound for sure. The factory muffler sounds pretty good actually.

That's funny, my truck came from Canada with the fronts tinted. I thought all you Canadians followed the rules 🤣
Province to Province each one is different. Where'd yours come from? I've never been good at following the rules lol....

I'd love 30% tint. That's plenty!

Not sure exactly. But if I had to guess, Ontario or Quebec since it made its way here to West Michigan. Love having tint on the fronts. It keeps everything so much cooler with the sun beating down on it.
 
Well @TOWMA8R I have to post another one… just couldn’t resist on my way into the grocery store View attachment 195750
Well,,,,,,, and I would be lying if I haven't been searching the internet for a smokin deal, at least on add to get me excited...... you never know what the next moth or two brings my friend!

Looking forward to your thoughts after install. I've got some exhaust noise emanating from the resonator area of my 2018, so whether the resonator is shot or something in the area is leaking I have to do something there. Hope to examine it better this weekend. Started after the cam phasers and timing were done (can't see how that relates) and I'd take it back to the shop but it's an hour twenty away. DW likes the truck being quiet though.

I will post an update. I noticed and read many others have this too, the 21+ resonator can rattle when you shut your truck door. Mine does it. So I guess I’m fixing that sound haha.

See plenty of folks here in Manitoba with windows tinted darker than is legal here. Matter of fact having even a clear cover on your license plate can net you a ticket as well. I won't mention all the truck owners driving in the winter with snow covering their plates days after it last snowed. Only once have I seen someone pulled over for that. But, if the police want a reason to pull you over the dark tint is a good one.

Yeah, that’s why I don’t want to get tint personally.

I'm old. Factory tint suites me fine, and, being a professional driver, I hate anything that impairs my vision.
I just invest the money in good sunglasses.
