Brockman Mellowtones VS. Flowmaster Super 44's

This past Summer, I put a pair of steel-packed Brockman Mellowtone mufflers on my truck (305 V6, true duels, stock manifolds) and while it sounds good when it is idling or at low RPMs, it sounds like a Ford 8N tractor going down the road. Someone just gifted me a set of new Flowmaster Super 44s that were "too loud" for his wife and I am wondering what that would sound like?

I like the "throaty" sounds of Flowmaster mufflers but have only run them on trucks with a V8. Does anyone run Super 44s on their truck with or without headers? How does it sound?

Last time I had something too loud (2004 Ram w/ 5.9 Cummins, and 4" straight pipe), I was actually a topic of conversation at a neighborhood watch meeting. I could do without being "that guy" again.

Also, for the record, I did put a muffler back on the Dodge eventually...
