Dumb question here.
When I need to run my truck, to troubleshoot or time it for example, my garage (in my home, not a shop) naturally fills with fumes even with all doors open. Where can I get about 20 feet of flexible hose of the right diameter (~2") that I can temporarily connect to the exhaust tip, that doesn't cost a bundle?
Some shop-vac hoses might work if I duct-tape some together, but where can I get them? Home Depot does seem to carry just the hoses.

Check your local AC and heater places.
I got some 6" flexible plastic tubing from my local place for real cheap, it was crap they had left from a job.
It's larger than what you are looking for but I'm sure you could make it work.

Solid, 4" corrugated drain pipe (without the holes). Cheap and flexible.

It's large enough that it won't give you back pressure problems and it's dirt cheap.
