    I will either have to get a flange welded to the headers or cut the flange off my Solo cat-back and use a clamp. It will probably be some work to get them installed.

    People gave me crap about me getting one. Something about the extra weight blah blah blah. Somehow I don't feel it with the 6.8L lump pulling me around. I'd rather be safe than sorry!

    All of AZ? WTF!

    I was surprised to hear how many they had. Especially in CT.

    I went to two dealers in CT that had my color with an M6 and they just played games with me

    Spoke to the dealer Slizzo told me about ..But the Colors I wanted were auto.. even if I settled for the Auto I was told the colors I wanted had deposits.
    One thing ..Im dead set on is another Heron White or maybe a Slip Stream Blue. .. Would love to see what the two new colors are for 17.

    hopefully the fleet manager can get the deal done on one from out of state
