buckstop doesn't seem to have anything to do with trucks at all..... and the tough country front bumpers....... 900 to almost 2 grand for a bumper?? I could pick up a whole 'nother truck for that kind of money.

I helped build this one about a year ago. Such a trooper of a bumper. The owner landed it on the skid plate at about 60mph when coming off some whoops and it didn't even bend. The skidplate had a small dent, and thats it. Good stuff!

And the cheapest one from them is almost as much as I paid for my truck...... Seriously.... Folks build engines for less than what these folks want for bumpers. If you have that kind of money laying around, that you can afford to spend it on a bumper, how about sending me some?

what gets me about those "expensive" bumpers is that they don't protect the offroad lights, the lights will break before the bumper touches, then your out whatever you paid for the lights. you'd think for that kind of money they would have thought of that thats in reference to the buckstop website.
