I got a buddy that had a 06 5.9 with 4" turbo back a fake muffler and a 8" tip. I could hear him start it up and haul *** down his dirt road 10 miles from my house

1. Cummins
2. Powerstroke
3. Duramax

Cummins' are just plain ol' loud, video clips dont do it justice, as real life would listening to them. Powerstrokes although noisy, have the distinct sound, and are higher pitched. A Duramax is very, very hard to hear, unless it has some miles on the clock, or straight pipe, or stacks i doubt many will hear its engine. I know i have trouble hearing them.
