    There’s probably more than 20 dealerships in Philadelphia and the surrounding suburbs. There are are probably three or four in Bucks County alone. There are probably four or five in the Lehigh Valley area (Allentown, Bethlehem, Easton), 10-15 in Pittsburgh and the surrounding area, not to mention “Pennsyltucky” (central PA)...

    That guard did not keep the engine from going through the truck. Vehicles are made to crumble and absorb impact. That is what protected the driver.

    Even if it did work, I think my truck would look too cluttered with one of those monstrosities on the front...

    Thompson Toyota is really more of a boutique dealer compared to some of the big dealers in Texas you described. They’ve got plenty of crossovers and hybrids, but their truck selection sucks.

    These look cheap. I checked out the installation instructions and they look flimsy. To me these are just for looks and not for any actual use.

    @BartMaster1234

    How much for one of your horn setups? Would I have to pay sales tax?

    Sure, no problem. I'll put it on the back. LOL The top supports were attached to the radiator mounts. I'm sure that would keep everything safe.

    I am pretty sure that the only way that the wrecked Silverado claims are accurate if the advertised guard was mounted in conjunction with their bumper. Talkin' about 200lbs of ugly. Not sure if that truck's front approach angle will clear speed bumps.

    I have at least three or four videos on that page haha. Most likely it’ll be The Park Avenue ACDF package.

    Try driving from southern CA to north CA...that ish takes a long time lol.

    Although there's some pretty damn nice scenery along the way depending on the route...I've driven across Missouri before and I nearly died of boredom, just flat plains as far as the eye can see for hours, and hours, and hours...and...hours...
