Hey again Buck. On most road tractors the exhaust stacks point straight up which is gonna carry most of the noise out and over you instead of directly into your line of travel like a vehicle with the pipe pointing out the side or out the back is gonna do. The biggest reason though is the same as one of the answers to the other question....it's a "mating call". There aren't many aftermarket parts available for the exhaust on the bigger trucks, so they pretty much are sticking with factory installed systems. For that matter when you get into the larger systems just about all the mfgs use Donaldson, Riker, etc which are the "aftermarket" suppliers too. There are so many aftermarket parts available for the smaller vehicles though that you never know what they might have on them. Just know that if it's that loud it probably doesn't have a stock exhaust system. Just like a new Harley, they aren't loud from the factory, the riders/drivers make them that way....Just my .02 again....
