Awesome work though.
Haha. Thank you for the kind words, and good point. But my biggest concern was local state laws where some require the exhaust tips to farthest back and out from under the vehicle but we don't have that requirement here.

As for a downturned tip and blowing dust up, a) we don't have very many/I don't plan to drive on any dirt roads, b) the tip I have on is the exact same tip that I cut off of the original behind-the-rear-wheel exit tail pipes, facing the exact same way-just more underneath the bed- so it wouldn't be blowing any more or less dust up(more under my truck if anything) if I ever did drive on a dusty road/surface.

I already avoid driving it in rain and it would be a cold day in hell if I ever took it off roading anywhere. It isn't a garage/trailer queen by any means but I am a fair weather driver.
