well, it's toatally illegal. Wheter or not you'll get a ticket depends on how the police are in yer area. There's several trucks around here that don't get bothered to much about em, but it's hard to say whether or not you will in tx.

Probly like a front windshield tint, around here anyways, a stack would probly be more noticeable but usually they dont wanna waste their time to pull people over for that kinda stuff anyways

I wanna do a hood stack on my truck cause I want it to be different but theres a reason there arent ANY other trucks around here with them. I know guys with regular stacks that get pulled over for having them. The local cops around here are jerks but the state boys are usually pretty cool unless youre doing something stupid...

IIRC...one of the Texas state laws about exhuast, is that, the exhuast must not terminate under the passenger compartment, and CAN terminate vertically. Another thing, Texas also considers "rotary devises" (turbos) a legal exhuast muffler.

In some parts of Oregon you see hood stacks on gas grain trucks so the exhaust doesn't set the fields on fire.
I don't think anybody bothers them.
Years ago I used to do farm work and there was a Steiger I liked to run. It had a little cat and dual stacks through the hood, with rain caps. I thought it was cool to watch the smoke roll out when you dropped the plows or whatever down, and I liked the tinkity tinkity tink the rain caps made when it was cranking up...

It isn't legal.
But as long as you don't do anything stupid, annoying or unsafe you won't get in trouble.
You probably won't get a ticket for the stack alone, but if you get pulled over for peeving off a cop... Then you're going to get dinged for the exhaust.

Please tell me that neither one of you is actually going to do this to your 3rd gens. If that's the case, just give it to me, I'll give you my 2nd gen and you can do it to that!
