New muffler is on the truck. I can't believe how much QUIETER it is now. There's really about no noise at all now. I never realized how smooth the truck shifted before since you could always hear it when it'd shift. Now I can't hear anything. Which is just fine, it's much more enjoyable to drive now.

Plus I gained 13.1HP and 20 ft lbs of torque. It says so on the box!
