    It's never a good feeling. Telephone gets gnarly when it gets snowy.

    How much snow was there? The picnic area had about 6", and that was about 4 in the afternoon so I think quite a bit had melted off by then.

    It was super wet snow, even the measly 3" we had at the house made for great snowballs. How'd the taco do?

    I narrowed it down to the MTr, Maxx, or Nitto trail grapplers. Thinking 285's not sure on size yet.

    Also wondering the advantages/disadvantages of the hoops on the front bumper. I would imagine it's a brush deflector right? Guess it could be aesthetics/over function or vise versa..:) I'm looking at a purchase, that's why I was asking. I really love the look of yours...

    Mine is powder coated. For me I like the looks of the hoops, that's why I got them. They do deflect tree limbs a little and I bet they would help in the case of an animal strike also.

    You forgot to add that people tend to back away when they try to crowd into your lane without using their turn signals :)

    Your Front bumber in white is the best I have seen. Great look! I as thinking about doing the same thing down the road, now if I ever change the bumper it's a must!
