Well, it may be a touch louder than the factory bars...not by much.


What exactly are you concerned about?

i think he might be hinting at if the stealth rack will cause more drag, thus lower mpg.

It will be added weight, that is for sure, so you can expect that you will have to give more motor, thus, reduced mpg.

not concerned re: mpg, just top speed

I used to cruise about 90, but then w/37s only can do 85 w/o whippin the truck.

just wondering if the stealth(unloaded) makes a lot of drag and will reduce the 85 much lower

i just came back from safari, and w/coolers up top i could only get about 75. just annoyingly slow
