    I am. Not sure if I'm going to leave it off or not yet, though. Had it off for about a week now. Handles OK but the possibility of evasive maneuvering makes me nervous. Going to see how it handles off road next weekend.

    I think the expanded metal will also help to keep weight down while maintaining a functional look and protect your radiator too.

    I took mine off about a month ago. Our trucks are new enough where there isn't a lot of body roll with or without, and, like Bandit said, it rides smoother as well!! Go for it!!

    I upload the images to photobucket and then copy the url that photobucket gives you. Click the button that looks like a little grey mountain on a yellow background and paste the URL there and you have a full size image in your post.

    And on a different note...install that bumper?!
