It's not a flatbed, but it was a whole lot cheaper. (it doesn't dump yet.)


Just trying some options.

Why? The stacks don't look any different when you burn one type of fuel or another. The only difference is you'll never see black smoke if it's a gasser. You shouldn't see much if that with a diesel if it's tuned right, anyway. All these guys you see running around blowing out huge clouds are just wasting fuel.

Stacks through the bed are retarded, but on a step side between the cab and fender or a flat bed they look good.
