exactly..last time i checked this is a public forum and EVERYONE is entitled to their own opinion...there was NOTHING in my post that was offensive or bad in any way...i like the look of the Basher Tube bumper on the 2nd gen trucks (like my '86), but i have NEVER seen one on a 2nd gen 4runner (which is what i have now, a '92)...now that i have i do not want the bumper because it doesnt have the look that i want!
If he likes the bumper GREAT!!! i know its a VERY well built bumper and it looks great on his 4runner, but i don't like the look of it personally.
If you guys wanna go criticize (spell check 2DoorRunner
) my stuff go right ahead! It's a PUBLIC FORUM and i can say WHATEVER I WANT, as long as it's not breaking the rules LOL!!
if my post was offensive in anyway, i apologize! It wasn't meant to be like that, it's just not my style dude.
and everybody has their own taste, and i like the Kennesaw Mtn. bumpers, but i have heard they are slow as hell and have BAD customer service, chances are i won't go to them, but i like that bumper better than the Badland's (on a 2nd gen 4runner).
hell i have a line on a Jeep Cherokee ARB, the guy is checkin measurements for me, and if it fits my 4runner(modding brackets is no problem ) then i'm gonna scoop it up!!!!

I'll agree that I hate the tubed bumpers on 4runners, im more of a plated/armor truck lookin' kind of guy. more of a "tank' look. which is why im going with an ARB bumper or WARN bumper. but just because its a "public" forum, its nice to be courteous of what others think as well. Just because im not a fan of the tubed bumpers doesn't mean im gonna tell the guy that his truck looks like complete garbage with the bumper on it. It looks good, just not for me, or you obviously. I mean, I rebent my stock rear bumper because I didn't wanna settle for a tubed bumper and didn't wanna pay 800 for a plated one. haha
hahaAnd like i said camo, not trying to start an arguement or make anyone hate me, im just saying my opinion
