Good looking unit Tibbs. Looks like the weight of that brush guard would drop your mileage down to single digits!! Shocked

Got a well built bumper on the back of that rig too?

I get between 16-20 mpg on the thing, and no the back just has the factory bumper. I dont' tend to hit many deer, livestock or hitch hikers while backing up.....although i did back into my friends car the other night in the dark. Dented his up pretty good and barely scratched mine....his fault for parking where i usually back out of. Anyway....i just hope no one rear ends me......

The front grill guard has deflected a few trees to while guiding deer hunters in the brush country....
