    I've seen you post in several threads about chrome, don't feel bad when I make my build thread. I'm keeping chrome.

    Right now around 16. But the distances I drive my truck at a time are usually so short that the truck never even fully warms up.

    On the highway I tend to average between 18-20mpg

    I'm sure it will be. It's a bad ass bumper. The not plate bumper I'd get is the apex just because I hate waiting on stuff haha

    I would like the Apex if I could get it without the blinkers and get square fog cutouts.

    Well one thing I think that people don't understand is how to calculate it with a bigger tire size. So it makes it seems like you get better gas mileage when you don't. I had the same problem when I first got my 255/85's. Math is hard sometimes haha

    So the fact that your average is higher than mine and your best is higher than I get anymore, I'm still wrong somehow?
    My ultragauge is set at 7.7778% to calculate for the larger tires ;)

    Looking into switching my Relentless bumper order to a DIY kit.


    Exchanging emails with two welding shops to see the cost to pay them to weld it versus waiting.


    And I think I'm going to get the headlight hoops now too... :D
