If it came on the vehicle new you will be required by law to have it on the
vehicle for NH state inspection.
The exhaust must go past the passenger compartment, after that it is a
matter of choice.

Twas what I thought.

But that makes little sense, because the entire truck is a passenger
compartment, wouldn't it have to come stock right out of the rear? The stock
exhaust contradicts these laws. I just think this is all rather annoying....

Think I should have any problems with the cherry bombs, or should I not
bother to put them in?

Hi,
Just a silly question but my 86 GMC dumps out the side and just to the
rear of the rear wheel and it came that way from the factory. Would
it pass or not (if I lived in New Hampshire)?

a side exit behind the rear wheel is fine... I can't think of a truck
off hand that exited out the rear from the factory. what they don't
want is a exhaust dumping under the passenger compartment, carbon
monoxide issues.
exiting before the wheel on a SUV is just leaving yourself open to
getting screwed by a trooper in a bad mood. (been there, done that)
in Maine (I'm pretty sure NH is the same or very similar) the exhaust
in a pickup must either exit the body from the side or rear *OR* *IF*
there is no cap on it, it may exit via a turndown no closer than 20"
from the back of the cab. the second you put a cap on it, the exhaust
must exit either the side or rear.

Bah, only person it will kill is me, and only if I sit in the frikken thing
in 4 feet of snow and just let it run - even then only stacks would help me.
If I want to kill me that's my choice. I hate frikken laws to protect me
from me....just annoys the piss out of me.
