That is exactly what I was saying in my post. If you have loud or somewhat loud exhaust that exits under the rig before the axle it drums inside the cab when you go down the highway at road speed and can be loud and annoying in town.
The main thing here is that we are suggesting running pipes out from under to the rig to exit out past the body or running boards. That isn't hard nor is it expensive and it makes a huge difference. Not as good as having the pipes run back and exit behind the rear wheels somewhere but it gets any fumes out from under the truck and gets a big part of the noise and drumming out from under the truck Then you can have fun hearing your pipes echo off the Johnson barriers on the highway to boot.
