i removed my radio so i wouldn't be distracted when i was driving and listening to the Cummins cackle....

actually i took it out to loan it to a friend to try in his wife's car 3 years ago and i am too lazy to cary it out to the truck and plug it back in......

When I drive next to a wall of buildings I roll down the window so I can hear the turbo whine more and the exhaust bellow . I used to do the same thing when driving the big trucks loved to hear the turbo whine coming out of the big dual air cleaners on the side of the hood also liked hittin the jakes with the window down going through tunnels. And I thought I was the only "crazy" one

nice blkjack ... my fiance has started naming them from how much i do it ... ...
as for me i do have a decent stereo ... cant help it ... music has always been a part of my life ... but just like my bug ... the stereo does get turned down when i want to listen to it ... unlike my bug ... the engine isnt over powering ... ... damn that exaust ... ... but as for my truck i have a stock intake and exhaust so i dont get quite the great sound going near walls but i still enjoy it ... .. .but once my exhaust gets done it will get turned down much more often

I like cruisin in the summer time w/ the rear window open. The stacks are almost defening but I love the sound. Especialy going under overpasses or driving through town. It's alot better now w/ the 6 speed vs. the auto.
