I think zombieland or a double tap keg, either way, badass-ness.
WOW, NOT a fan!
Looks like this guys grill.
Hahahahaha, that pretty much sums it up.
Reminds me of that monstrosity that someone installed and posted on the z a year ago. I wish I could find a pic of it, lol.

I am a fan of winch bumpers but that does not look right. I am currently working with a company to produce an aluminum winch type bumper. Very early stages right now.

I live in Corpus... El Campo is like 130 miles away.
Its not that the bumper weighs 170lbs (usually Tough Countrys are way heavier than Ranch Hand), but its the 170lbs sitting out a foot past where the OEM bumper was (and the OEM weighs like 50 lbs)
I can imagine that front end dropping 2 inches with that bumper on there. I'm curious to a before and after measurement if you can get one.
But yeah, I concur that bumper is more of a Heavy Duty truck bumper, its already rare to see them on 1/2 ton trucks.
The Warn full replacement bumper and winch weighs 350lbs, and dropped the front end of a 2011 F350 dually.
I didn't even go with a full replacement for my 2011 F250, just a brush guard, it weighs about 120lbs up front, but will keep me from losing my front end if I whack a deer, lol.

This is a toss up for me. Being from Texas and driving past deer all the time, I definitely see the use for it...but I'm just not sure if it fits on the Raptor. Plus, the added weight concern is bothersome too.

If that's steel, it's a LOT of weight. If it's aluminum, maybe, maybe.

Looks like a good Deer pusher. I still like the Pre Runner bumps tho.
Coming back from the ranch this weekend it was a horse and cows around a sharp curve, almost took to the ditch. No bumper would have helped me there.
