    Not really a story. Not really someone else’s meme either. More like a direct port of my feelings.

    The things that touch your front wheels on 4wd and make them spin. I don’t have them. But some do.

    I took mine off last evening. Took a 30 mile road trip this morning and drove in 5th gear cruise set at 60, up and down through the hollows and still got 25.8mpg. No difference in mpg with it off that I can tell.

    Don’t remove it until you find it in the way anyway (which I doubt you will).

    “Looks” has to be the most used word on TW other than articles.

    If it doesn't get torn off either on the trails or "streets" then you should probably leave it :rofl:

    I left mine on because I don’t “wheel” my truck, so you should leave yours on also.

    Since you asked.

    Actually, do you really need to ask a forum what to do?

    Anyway, welcome to TW, lol

    Wonder if the bumper will start to sag in time if you remove it?

    this is TW, your feelings don’t belong here.

    this is for feelings:

    All we do here is tell people to buy Kings and rip off their lower valence.


    OP, did I mention welcome to TW?

    I took it off I went from 50mpg to 3. I lost 47 mpg.

    I got the OR so it didn't have it from the factory. Trucks are already high enough up that the air dams don't do much. Road noise is about the same.
