For $500 seems like a great deal.

Reviews look excellent on the exhaust. my only concern would be cabin drone.  And its not 304 stainless its just 409 so it will oxidize and rust on the service.

 

I'm a huge Gibson exhaust fan.  Its built same way, I had it in my 2018 6.2L Sierra and it sounded amazing.  Got tons of compliments and I got it for $487 though autoanything and 1 year price match guarantee 

 

Wish they made it for my 19, but I have standard bed and they only make short bed.

 

Good luck with your choice of exhaust

Is there any clips of this exhaust to hear what it sounds like?

Yeah I saw some videos with it. sounds good.  Its not loud and obnoxious, just the right amount of rumble.  Reviews say the drone is minimal also.

I'd say give it a shot.  It's your truck and of u like the sound.   The price is excellent.  I am having hard time spending $1400 or more for a corsa right now.  They are only ones that make exhaust for standard bed.  Not a fan of flowmaster or magnaflow... to much drone for me.  

I just got off phone with gibson and they are still a few weeks out on exhaust for standard bed.  Same with Borla S type, but they are still around $1300.

Yeah I had a Flowmaster 40 series on another truck and it had bad drone.  The price is the thing, I don't want to drop 1-2k on a exhaust. My goal is to add a little rumble and get rid of the stock tips.

I just installed this on my 2020 TB with 5.3. My son and I did it in our garage. The fit is quite good overall. The tips look awesome. The sound is really nice. Deep rumble, not too loud. You get a little of the decel pop sometimes when it downshifts which sounds good. There is some drone in the cabin which isn’t bad at all (only slightly more than the more expensive Corsa cat backs I’ve had). There is some of the “helicopter drone” that the flapper in the stock exhaust is supposed to prevent. 
 

overall, I would do it again, for $500 it’s a good deal.

The rough country system is just a knock off flowmaster American thunder series cat-back.  They both use the super 40 muffler, I ran mine for a week before I removed the muffler.  It didn't sound bad by any means but it was too quiet for me.  The drone was minimal.

      2026 6.6 L5P oil cooler leaking oil at 4,000 miles

      By Brendan C · Posted

      New to diesel trucks. I happened to find my oil cooler leaking oil externally with only 4,000 miles on the truck. I didn’t realize this was an issue until I started researching it. Dealer is going to replace it under warranty but I’m wondering if there’s anything GM is working on to fix this issue. I’ve heard the oil filter used is the same as they use on their V6 motors and that’s what is causing the problems. Should I switch to a bigger filter or keep using the OEM recommended?

      Seems to be Missing a lot of Updates

      By Vu1can · Posted

      So, GMCustomerService:  Judging by the Update History pictured above, is this truck missing any updates that it actually needs. If it's just for the infotainment system, the radio is working fine and no trouble with SeriusXM. and Android Auto is working fine wirelessly with my phone. Some months ago, an update notice was sent to my truck. I approved the update and it finished saying that the update was successful, but it seems that whatever that update was, it didn't actually get installed - at least not if I'm to go by the Update History shown above.   So, again, are there any updates that this truck really should have? I've checked with my dealer but they're reluctant or commit to anything and if I want them to check, they require a $200.00 fee just to check it out and then I'd have to pay for the actual update(s).    Ignorance is bliss, and if none of the updates goes to fixing any mechanical discrepancies, I'll just leave things as is.

      Electrical Problem - solved

      Hey everyone, I recently had an issue with my 07 2500HD GMT900. My DRL’s stay on at all times. Right front turn and right mirror turn signal indicator stay on solid at all times. By “at all times” I mean the only way to make them go off is disconnecting the battery. I tore the headlight assemblies out, tried disconnecting the harnesses to eliminate bad wiring at the harness, I unplugged the headlight switch, no change and the mirror turn signal still stayed on. My first thoughts were : Bad bulb and/or socket somewhere, under hood fuse panel bad, bcm bad, tail light or trailer wiring problem, or some random short to power in the harness.  Possibly a bad ground but unlikely. I had a big clue in the fuse panel, it had a burnt smell. I started pulling every fuse that had to do with DRL or right turn/park lamp. Nothing made the right directional turn off but pulling the DRL2 fuse made the DRL’s go out.  After studying wiring diagrams, I found that both problems had that fuse panel in common, the bcm also controls both problems but knowing the fuse panel had a burnt smell I removed and disassembled the fuse panel and found a little corrosion on the printed circuit board.  I ordered a new fuse panel from Amazon for like $260. When it arrived I installed it, and put everything back together, the problem was fixed. I figured the fuse panel needed to be replaced anyway so that was a logical place to start. Hopefully this story helps someone in the future. Regretfully I didn’t scan for codes before I did everything.

      That stinks. I’m sitting on the side of the road right now with the same issue. Never had an issue before taking it in for the ground strap recall. Now I’m outside of warranty and they’ll probably want $200 just to diagnose what they already “fixed”.
