putting glasspacks on a truck of this size will make the engine louder than a harley running straight pipes. u will also make the truck into a cop magnet for certain, especially in an area that is known to be strict with noise. u'll get a fix-it ticket if ur lucky, or u'll get cited with illegal exhaust at worst...and that wont be cheap. been there, done it.

Did you rear when you put on the 35s? You should have 4.56's with 35's and the 300 I6. If you're still rocking the 3.08 or 3.55's then that's a problem. But overall 10 MPG is pretty reasonable for a truck with 6 inches of lift and 35's. I have a 4 inch lift and 33's on my Bronco with the 351 and 4.56 gears, and I get about 9-10 MPG. If you haven't already you should regear the truck, expect to spend about $1200. That should get you about 2 MPG or so and make the truck much more responsive. You can try putting synthetic gear oil in the diffs as well for a small gain. But there's not alot more you can do. As I said before for a full sized truck with a lift and 35's 10 MPG is about par for the course.

This is going to depend on the engine option. I assume you are opting for gasoline rather than the Power Stroke Diesel if you want glass packs. This is going to have a rather higher tone and a loud "cackle" mainly at acceleration and deceleration that uses engine braking. If you want a deeper note, then you should get a performance muffler with a larger chamber. If you run the exhaust all the way to the rear of the truck, the noise will not be nearly as bad in the cab as it will be to followers, and it will reduce the exhaust noise in general. If this is a daily driver, then seriously consider tailpipes.
There will likely be no change in gas milage attributable to the exhaust change.

It all depends on v-6 or v-8, obviously the v-8 will be louder, how much louder you ask, it will be very loud compared to a stock exhaust... Now if maximum decibels is what you are after, the thing to do is install them backwards, this is an old trick from when they first came on the scene back in the 60's. Your gas mileage might increase, but it won't be noticeable...Hope this helps!

110 decibels. Gas mileage with F150's is always very poor. Probably double compared to some standard european or japanese car. No wonder... it's weight is also double.

pretty loud, but nothing is wrog with that. Just feather the throttle round the cops, and coast by them. Scare away those darn tuners!
