    I just took mine off only because I have a 6" with 35"s on and it was rubbing. I drive City/Interstate quite a bit and when I go out with everyone it'll help me. That's only my opinion but everyone I know takes it off. Better look to it too! Gl with it!

    Take it off. You're truck is still breaking in. Your average gas mileage will not settle until 10k/15k miles. 25k all highway with about 21 mpg, took it off, different driving habits, highway i get 24 mpg and city as low as 19 mpg. It all depends on how you drive.

    Here it is! I really like the aggressive chiseled look it gave the front of the truck!
