I know this isn't my explorer, but its my mom's excursion. Anyway, my mom came home today and she said her exhaust was wicked loud when she started up her truck after leaving work today. Well, I crawl underneath with my flashlight and couldn't beleive it. The whoe pipe was broken off between the cat and the muffler. It was almost a clean cut the whole way around the pipe. If anyones ever wondered what the V10 sounds like almost straight pipe, it damn loud and mean! So my question is, how could this have happened? There is zero rust anywhere under the truck, exhaust included. It doesn't look like it was cut because where it severed off is a little jagged. I was thinking of just taking it to midas or mineke tomorrow morning for her just to get it welded back together since it will join back up nice and clean. Is this my best option? How much does it cost just to get it welded back up? I was thinking around $20 or so. Any thoughts?
