    My airbags did not- I tried evasive maneuvers so hit on the corner vs the front. She's in the shop now inspecting the damage.

    A lot of people are putting on aluminum front bumpers and i was heavily considering it but probably woulda been a whole different situation non steel

    That was my poor attempt at humor, didn’t mean to ruffle any feathers.

    Traveling down Hwy 40 at about 70+ mph a semi had a tire blow out, traffic was heavy enough that I couldn’t avoid the impact with a huge chunk of the tread that separated. I hit it so hard it caused my truck to swerve. I hadn’t even had the ARB bumper a week. When I finally was able to stop and check, just a big rubber scuff mark on the lower edge of the bumper. Had the original bumper been on there it would have ripped it off! I love my ARB bumper!

    I'm not sure if I'm missing the joke, but my money is on the crumple zones being there for the hit car, not the hitter.

    Yeah he didn’t know that the winch would just do the work and to let it. I think he was a little scared too. No big deal on my end
