Which would you get?
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!

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.

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

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.

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.
