Running one on my '07 w/4.OL V6. I like the sound of it, nice little rumble when you get on it. Fit was excellent although it is tight over the rear suspension.

I have a Gibson on my '08 V6. A bit noisy for my taste inside the truck when it's under load (like going up a hill or with a bunch of people inside) but it sounds good and I picked up 3 mpg on the highway. Like Joe said, it's a slam-dunk to install but I did have to tinker with the tailpipe for a few days since the clearance around the rear suspension is tight with the bigger pipe. Only things I had to add were shorter bolts and springs where the mid-pipe bolts to the cat flange since the OE bolts bottomed out before it was tight.

It appears the gibson puts the muffler under the cab. If you can move a performance muffler to the rear of the cab. You get less drone inside. My magna-flo is just before the axle. that keeps most of the the drone, out of the cab.

Had a Gibson on my '97 X. Drone sucked, wife hated it. On my '01 XST I went Dynomax and wouldnt buy anything else! It is nice and now drone!

magnaflow is big bucks, gibson is only 300 bucks.

I think I only paid $300 for my custom duals back in 2003..... Now my guy is about $400..



you should be able to get a shop to install a custom system or just swap out the muffler for a lot less...



Also as ed said, make sure you move the muffler as close to the REAR axle as you can, this reduces interior noise dramatically..

Had the gibson on the '01. Easy install, great sound. Installed in my driveway.
