okay i have a big bumper on my truck, but i think that one is a little overkill. Specially since i didn't see a winch or anything tucked into that bumper. Not to mention that it doesn't flow with the body lines or match up at all. Go figure it's on a powerstroke.

I think they should make it manditory you have to take an IQ test before you can buy a welder so bumpers like that "Thing" never get built.

Remove the "thing" and you could get $75 for the scrap steel at least

Probably got tired of the bucket kicking out from under them.

I have a bumper that big on a truck at home, it does at least have a winch in it. 28,000lb capacity hydraulic winch with provisions for a windless also. Its on the front of a 1988 C70 with a digger derrick on it. Think power company line truck.

Ya'll r gonna hurt my feeling talkin about my truck like that.... No, jk.... Its got the wrong emblem on front to be mine.
That thing gets into a front end collision with something big and solid, there wont be anything left to identify the truck except that big ugly bumper.
Sanford and son... Now thats funny right there!!

It looks like they were trying to look like one of the F650 super single conversions.

plus it be great for a bench for the mud bogs, or any other event you can park your vehicle at the side of... i wouldnt put one on my truck, unless it was free. After that i'd still cut it down a little bit.
