Yeah, I'm close to making an order.

Well, I had hoped I would be able to gather up around 2,000 for it. I can't get it, and I can't justify getting money from my parents for something I won't put on my truck for a year or so(after I lift)

Better than the Boondock, but still has no concept of body lines matching. What is wrong with the people designing these bumpers?

x2

That's why I like the Reunel bumper, it at least had some attempt at following the body lines

Here is my photoshop I did some time back of one on mine. I think they look very tough, much better than the lame chrome one we currently have. I wish our trucks were more boxy, but they are gravitating that way in trucks, can't wait.

Josiah, that looks mad wicked!! I'll get one, one day. I was hoping I'd come up with the money while it was on sale, but I couldn't.

Only thing I don't care for on mine is the alignment process is a PITA. Sure I wish the lines matched up better but the deer I hit last winter didn't notice the lines at all. Then there's some flex in the bumper I can see going over bumps. But I know that's from the bumper mounts on the frame not the bumper itself. I plan to cut out the rock guards when I get it sprayed with line-x this summer.

Every time I go out storm chasing, I think about your truck! I'll almost never use mine, but it just looks soo tough. Just like my lift, I won't "USE" it just looks good.

IMO that bull bar part is like w/o a doubt necessary and those empty holes make me want to scream. Is that a 2wd truck? While you're talking to them find out how much they weigh.
