SteveV, thanks, same at ya.
MOford, thanks for that link. I'm contemplating having the big bugger painted to match the bumper, but I can forsee some serious dings that would show up a lot worse later on. I might look for an original style one to replace it after I get the lift on. It doesn't look too bad now, but might be an eyesore once it is lifted.

Yeah thats what i was kind of thinking. I figured it couldnt make that much of a diffrence.
Side note: i almost kicked myself for not ordering a diesel when i orderd the truck but today diesel is $4.10 went up .20 overnight.

I've seen my mpg go from 22 mpg to 18 mpg because of junk fuel. So what does that tell you?
There are a LOT of variables involved.
