Wouldn't be near as bad - look at a lot of the new fords - exit in
front of the passenger rear tire.

Subject: DML: Exhaust Noise
I tried a turndown right behind my muffler but I didn't like the noise
in
the cab. Does anyone know if the noise would be as bad if I run the
pipe
out the side of the truck just in front of the rear tire or do i need
the
long tailpipe to control the noise.
