Nope and I don't know what it is about them but I hate them for some reason. Obviously personal preference but I cringe when I see them. People prolly say the same thing about my face so take it with a grain of salt

I kind of liked them too and thought of buying one about a year ago. After some research, I found out that they're pretty much all made in China and very problematic.
FYI, Amazon's rating system is not to be fully trusted. On separate occasions I have tried to rate two different products negatively as they were both defective. Amazon rejected both carefully written reviews without reason. It was very discouraging for me as it was a major waste of time in the end. I have to wonder if they aren't trying to discourage people from writing negative reviews to up their sales.
Oh, and you'd better check and make sure that there is sufficient room under the tail gate for this thing before ordering. I occurs to me that someone wrote about one of these not fitting a 2017 due to something being in the way near the license plate.

Did you add an OEM set or aftermarket? I liked having those on my DRW trucks.

** BLING**...! However, if you are plowing snow a lot, I could see how they would help with increasing the visibility of your truck from behind at times... The really bad ones I've seen light up to the bass beat of the trucks sound system, kinda' like the new Christmas Lights do...

That'll go great when I'm rollin' a little 3 wheel action with my new hydrolic suspension!

I use Amazon all the time but the ratings are becoming absurd. "I just received it but haven't tried it yet. 5 star" "I ordered the wrong item. 1 star" "I ordered a red one but I don't really like the color 1 star" And don't get me started about the answers in the Q&A. Rant done.

A man two nights ago posted a one star for a DVD movie because it was not available in the format he wanted. Don't get me started either...
My taste say no to the light bar, perhaps a reverse lighting only option I might consider.
