No but in defense of many that run them, an upward facing exhaust (i.e. stack) is required by many diesel competition organizations (racing, pulling).

Bull haulers, anything bigger than a 7" (MAYBE 8"), and anything more than a foot over the cab, and you're just trying to get attention.

Im a tastefull mods guy. If your truck looks like you bought out a jc whittney catalog then thats a whole nother topic. And yes most the pulls ive been to minus the street truck class requires your exhaust to be straight up or down.

You're granted to your opinion, but why don't you show us some pictures of your ride instead of just trash talking?

im not talking trash, like you just said im entilted to my opinion. yes on a pulling truck, stack all the way, on a street truck, hell no. Stacks were made for semi's, and in my "opinion" thats where they should stay

heres the main reason I want to put a stack on my truck....

when I'm around home, out on the highway, or in a small town, I don't mind pourin some black out. but right now I'm primarily driving my truck around stillwater (fairly big town, but nothin impressive), and as much as I like rollin coal, I think its very inconsiderate to smoke out random traffic, especially the grandma driving next to me. kills me how some kids (crap I'm only 21) think this is soooooo cool. I mean if there's another pickup, especially a diesel next to me, I might roll a little and try to play around, or I might smoke out a ricer if he's being annoying, but not just random people.

but anyways back to my original point, I'm wanting to get a stack, so that if I do have to romp on it, at least the smoke will go up into the air, and not right into the faces of the two lanes of traffic behind me

i'm puttin one on mine for three reasons.
1. Pullin
2. So anything on the trailer i'm pulling isn't covered in soot (not that i pour smoke i just like to be clean if i'm haulin for somebody else)
3. So when i pass my grandmother i dont get bitch slapped when i see her next

People have their reason for stacks so I will post my reasons for no stacks.

1. My truck is a 6 speed and when I downshift she blows some smoke, not belching with every downshift but over a couple hundred miles that's a lot of smoke. I much rather cleaning low on a trailer than having to get a ladder to clean soot.
2. But more importantly, I live in CA and every fuckstick with a "Hollywood" truck ($10k worth of 12" chrome (or anodized) lift kit, 22" rims with LOW PROFILE mud tread tires, 8" stacks, driven by a dipshit who will never have a use for a truck let alone a diesel and goes 5 miles out of the way to avoid a patch of dirt let alone take it in mud)
