You don't need a muffler, in a few years your ears will adjust to it and you won't hear it any more
or anything for that fact. By the way congrats.

I'll post detailed specs and better pics tomorrow.
It has a heater and cold start kit.
Some new parts.
Only thing I found wrong so far is I turned on the heater and sparks flew, so I left it off until I can investigate.
And my wife thinks I'm retarded, or in an early mid life crisis.

The secret is to not have a muffler, so if your earplugs fall out, you still wont have to hear nagging.

Oh not worried about laws, just need it quieter in the cab. I'm prepared to sacrifice a little power for some peace and quiet.

I had an issue with the wipers on mine too, they were just stuck. Pull off the cylinders, open them up and squirt a little air tool oil in there.
My wife wasn't too happy when I got mine either, lol. I bought my truck as my first anniversary present to myself... but I got a trip to Gatlinburg for her though. It smoothed it over... kinda.

The muffler is for the nagging and the earplugs are for the truck.
