I lost the badge, or tore it off by hand months ago actually. lol Good eye though.
Yes, aftermarket antenna. You can see it in picture 2 and 3. It was later ripped off by my jacket as I was getting the snow off the windshield/hood. :/
Ordered a new one last night.

You are correct on both counts Stewie!
In one case I'm pulling the Ford (on 41.5" size tires I might add) out from the place that grabbed him in the water.
The other case was me. A tree was trying to claim my driver mirror and door. I said not today. This was because the rear end, on snow, slid down and encroached my path. So we used a ****** block on the rear to pull it away, then I used my winch up front to go forward and away from the offending tree. This was done in unison with the rear line being let out.
It was quite fun. Almost lost the mirror...minor cracks in the housing, but still works. whew!
Then you see the picture with the yellow jeep in my same spot. A red Toyota FJ40 with a white Jeep behind it (both on 42" tires). The FJ40 winched that same tree away so the yellow Jeep could clear.
On our way back...we cut the tree down with an axe. lol It was encroaching the trail too much. The Ford was trying to bypass it originally, hence got stuck.

hahaha...yeah. Mr. Bigger Boned Ford was waiting for me to come around the corner to set me in that position. Usually I'm the slow one at the back, so it was cool he hung and set the pic stance. Still had available flex though.
