Does that seem reasonable?
See what they will charge you if you supply the mufflers. I talked to a shop a month ago and they wanted $325 for a cat back single in dual out flowmaster 40 with tips...$200 without the muffler which I could have picked up on Ebay brand new for $60 shipped and saved myself $65.

Re: What exhaust are you guys running?

My truck was one of the first to be fitted with the new Super44 from Flowmaster and I have to say that I like it, but then again, my tastes are quite different from most other peoples'.

I have a single, full 2.5" system tucked up under the truck to keep it out of sight and it then dumps in the stock location. The "tip" is just under the rocker panel at the rear of the bed on the driver's side. I wanted something that was really close to stock, would still pass smog, but would have a little sound to it. Worked out perfectly.
