My girls meet me at the back door nearly every day when I get home.

I like that little voice from the back seat asking "Faster Daddy Faster!"

Both girls LOVE spirited runs down back roads.

thanks budhayes, looking foreward to the experience. when we lived in our last apartment my wife said the dogs would start goin crazy when i was about a block away with my old truck. they would always fall right to sleep also when we took them for a ride in it. im hopeing the kid will be into trucks or muscle cars.

this is making me wonder as well, i sold my corsa and installed a tbss muffler with my lts ory. added a dynomax bullet, now thinking of it is a a tad much, and if taking out the bullet and leaving just the tbss muffler would be quieter as well, as i and my wife will have our first child in less than 4 months

If you can add some tailpipe sik, that will make a difference. My truck went from whisper quiet (Gibson dual out back), to downright loud just by removing the two tailpipes off of the catback. I put turndowns on the muffler and it got a little quieter...then I gutted the cats and it got loud as hell, and this Gibson muffler is huge! (over 24" from what I remember)
