keep it, looks like it was installed straight and the paint matches, as long as it's sealed up good it won't leak

Did you know they are no longer being made.

it would only be cool if you left the stickers and tags on it like the rap 'artists' do on the baseball caps they wear.

Then it would have to be mounted on the side or back of the cab.

What are the visors like out on the highway?
Ever notice anything like it being a wind drag or being noisy?

Looks doesn't matter to me at all it's functionality that matters.
You look like you live in a shady place, do you "need" shade? ;)

Thinking about adding one to my '91 Bronco since the windshield
slants back so far, compared to the '75 F150.

Guess I better buy it quick huh, Brad? :)

I think it looks great. I always wanted one on my truck but I heard a one guy say he lost two miles to the gallon on the highway when he installed his visor. I could use the shade though. Anyway I think you should keep the visor, it looks great on your truck.
