    That amount was used only as a match for comparison.
    For $800 you could have a custom bumper made, and it would be the only one like that in the entire world.

    If it was a clapped out Cascadia with a missing bumper you'd probably be complaining that the guys hauling cheap freight. and everyone is always complaining saying if people said no rates would go up. now you are complaining about a guy you think wouldn't take less than 4.50.

    who cares about what another guy is doing if he isn't hurting the industry and bringing rates down? the faster he goes bankrupt the better for you right?

    also remember resale, I sold my 01 pete for pretty good money and I had a line of ppl wanting to come look at it and it sold in less than 2 days. probably wouldn't have that problem with an avg fleet truck

    last time you bought a bumper started with “19xx” didnt it?

    last valley chrome blind mount i ordered was $1700 when I ordered it, nothing special- and was up to $2200 when I cancelled it for not having shown up in 6 months.



    i think for $800 you can get the blind mount brackets shipped to you…

    You have me confused with someone else. There is no such thing as cheap freight if someone who has their finances in order and can still make a profit at rates that clown with a fancy "wanna be" show truck couldn't afford to run.

    Hey! His Volvo is gray! Well except for the unpainted part of the bumper that fell off going down the road. So it’s two tone gray and flattish black. It does have aluminum rims though.
