I finally got the bumper on! I'm quite pleased with it. It is lightweight compared to most off road bumpers--weighing about 60 lbs or so.

On the first drive I noticed a huge drag reduction, which is surprising because I was not expecting a noticeable difference. I caught myself a few times driving faster than normal because it takes less throttle to maintain highway speeds. Going from 60 mph to 70 mph is a lot easier. On my way to work I logged a record trip average--24.2 mpg. This is better than most of my drives to work in the summer time with my old bumper on. Since I didn't notice a difference in driving when I removed my old bumper, I would say that this bumper is a big improvement over before!
