    That would be awesome. A good side to a bad situation.

    I finally got a winch for the front of my truck!! Actually I got a pair of them. Only thing that sucks is they are hand crank do you think these will work well?

    Hopefully. As soon as he blew past me and pushed me to the left my butt hole puckered up real tight, and I knew there was not much of anything to do but hold on for the ride. Once I came to a stop and sat for about 30 seconds I just threw it in 4wd, drove out of the median and continued on until the next exit.

    Just another reminder to be extra careful, even when the lane you're in is plowed and salted.

    Unfortunate accident. Although with your post you've shed some light into yet another situation where a truck was saved by armor. I've always liked the look of wrap around protection and the idea, now I see where it comes in handy.

    Somebody needs to jump on the Wildernest topper in the ForSale section. It won't fit my DC otherwise I'd be grabbing it.

    When I had extra cash I was scouring the wildernest website (which has now become a FS/WTB portal).

    Go figure, now that I can't afford it, a local one pops up.

    But then my OCD kicks in and has to have it color matched... there's another $800 or more.

    Truthfully, a suspension lift and some much needed maintenance makes more sense right now.

    I hate being responsible. And broke.
