Thanks for the feedback guys - much appreciated. Taking your info and doing
some additional research, I've settled on the following plan of attack that I'm
going to do in stages so I can test the effect of each.

- Add a tonneau cover
- Try a couple tanks of 89 octane.
- Get a K&N filter
- Install an electric fan
- Remove resonator (?)
- Cold-Air intake (?)

How did removing the resonator affect the sound level? Is there much
difference in cab noise? I know it sounds newbish, but.. what did it take to
remove it?

Care to share any info on your construction?
