Haha! She lived in Augusta and I lived in Pensacola. We met in Marietta to go to downtown ATL and the CocaCola Museum and shit one time. Then another time we met in Jacksonville and partied down there.

The real reason the off road community turns their nose up to brush guards is that they all show and no go. They don't offer any real protection to the vehicle and in an accident over 5mph will do more damage than good to both your vehicle as well as the other. You can't use them as a tow/recovery point, can't use a winch with them etc. My suggestion is to go with a push bar with some nice off road lights. I know it doesn't look as cool but the money you save could go to much better lights which really can come in handy.

Either way, welcome aboard!

CineSLR, thanks for the reply. However, I've experienced differently.. My first trip out with my H2 I already found the brushguard very useful in small jeep trails. It isn't a must have but it'd be nice. I do agree that most use them for looks more than function but I don't mind the looks either
