I need your opinion I will have a birthday soon and my wife wants to get me something for the truck. I want a lot of stuff but what I want most is either a new front bumper or wheels and tires. Since my wheels and tires are in great shape I'm leaning toward the bumper but wheels would be nice! I just don't know!

 

what kind of bumper you looking at? stock?

 

Most likely a road armor. My truck is stock and everything is in great shape. I just dont want to look like everyother one in town!

 

Would the new wheels and tires add any functionality? Would they give you a better ride than you currently have? More ground clearance, maybe?

Personally, I go with functionality first, then other considerations.

 

If you go with the bumper, look at Iron Bull.... great propduct, great price.

 

Wait, what truck, motor, mileage, etc? We might spend your money on maintenance first.

 

Dang, I only get underwear or a few shirts. Rims and tires would be sweet.

 

That doesn't sound like a good birthday present...spend your own money on that.

I'd ask for a bumper....check out Road Armour, Fab Fours and Iron Bull. I have an Alien Patrol bumper on mine, but I don't recommend them...The bumper is a nice piece, but the business is very shady. I consider myself lucky I even received it after I paid for it

 

Get the bumper, they add fortitude and are useful. The wheels and tires you have are good so you can add them later.

 

Wait, you get presents for you birthday?

Choices non the less?
Hang on a minute.

Hey honey, I want to talk to you about something!
Sorry, I have to go now.

 

Yea I live a good life my wife is good to me! She knows I struggle to buy anything for myself even when I have the extra cash. With four kids I know that somthing could be lerking around the corner to take that extra cash. My Excursion is in great shape maintenance is up to date. (well I will need rotors soon) Thoughts like that keeps me from buying somthing for myself.

 

One more vote for the bumper. See if Iron Bull will cut a deal for you.

 

Go with the cheapest. I like Fab and road armor

 

Im trying a few different guys on the bumper. Iron Bull is offering the front and back with defender 4 guard for 2500 shipped. Im trying to get a little more discount we will see....
Does anyone have experience with Iron Bull? I have heard not so good things about other companies. I always value the past experience that other people have had with vendors.

 

Have had mine for two years now with a 16800 lb winch in it. Seen it's fair share of use and so far, no complaints. One other positive to note was when I got mine they were having problems with their coating supplier (think they do it in house now for quality control) anyway, I phone them up and Jesse, the owner immediately cut me a check for $150 to get it resprayed if I wanted. Didn't even want to see pics.

To me, the great customer service Jesse gave me is worth alot...
