It's impossible for anyone to be vocal in this type of setting. Lowered truck w/cowcatcher, sheez.

You asked for opinions, so I will say that I really don't care for it too much, but I do think if it were black, it would look better. But, it's your truck, go with what you like.

I personally think the bar is out of place on the truck. Just doesnt match anything on or around the truck. But to each his own




I know this was a joke but it almost seemed like your were being serious. You were joking right?

As tall as you are i thought you would lift your truck instead of lowering it. But you should totally go for it man. I think you need ranch hand bumpers, a headache rack and some big ol' KC's to mount on it. Just for starters though..

Yea I like the ideal of floods in the bed. But how much of the forward light actually hits the road where you need it? Plus too much light and you risk damaging the paint on the roof from the heat.
