OO.. it's one thing to say you don't like them, and would never put them on your truck, but it's totally different to question someones manhood that has them, and say im a dumb redneck kid that wants attention. (not saying that's not my case) just taking up for those that aren't

I need a option c my truck USED to have stacks on it, the guy i bought the truck from had them on there, but the truck was not selling so he took them off. and sold them this was about 2 weeks before i bought the truck. now I don't think I will put them back on due to them taking up lots of bed space. I have the 105 gal fuel tank and tool box in bed not sure i can lose 6' more inches to stacks. I need a longer long bed add 3-4 feet and I will put the stacks back

I'm a 50 year old, and I would have them if not for my camper, or my wife hating them. I think they're very cool. I'm in California, I'm not gay or a redneck. And I don't particularly think big rigs are cool either.
Go figure?!!

From something I just realized, apparently enough people like stacks, or blackdiesel's truck in general; that it is currently Truck of The Month....

Just a little thought put into that one....

They're not for me. But, to each his own. That's what makes a Cummins so cool. There are no rules. You can run it stock, you can run a downpipe-only that rattles the shelves at the hardware store, you can make it look like a KW that's ready for the long haul, or you can turn it into a 12 second rice killer. The choice is a tough one to make for a lot of cummins owners but the SMARTEST choice that each and every one of us had to make has already been made. You made it when you bought your Cummins. So, stacks or no stacks, just remember, a friend with a Cummins....is a friend for life.

Well, those are my reasons for my not using stacks or any other useless accessory. You are free to interpret them however you wish.

I have a toolbox in the winter, and a slide in camper in the summer.
If I had just a play truck, I would get them.
I guess I would fit into the "want them but other factors are more important."
lol.

Probable true...but I think they look sharp! And I like the smoke going up and away from people behind your truck. But.....

I voted "I don't want"... for two reasons!
1- I need all 8' of my bed
2- I can still get into my garage (3/4" clearance on top and 3" front & back). Won't give that up till I absolutely have to!!

Ah C'mon rjohnson!! My truck doesn't fit in my garage not because of stacks but because of length!!

But you are right the sleeper look works great for your truck and still drooling over your roo guard!!

That's why I don't have 'em.
Otherwise, If I never used my truck for anything, and if I got rid of my toolbox I'd love to have twin 6" mitres. Probably not going to happen though, so I'll stick with my 4" straight pipe.
