Ranch Hands stop deer and cars,they are proven. RA IMHO is light duty. I'd be glad to test one of yours {IronBull} and do a report on it if I got a considerable discount :idea: :smilielol5:.

My homemade one may not be super pretty but it will darn sure stop deer at 75mph.

I have tested it personally on a car...oops...lol and many customers have tested on deer and elk....I am waiting for a moose story from our canadian brothers...I want pics of that! Its not light duty by any means...its heavy duty with aestetic appeal!
 
wish they had something that bolted up in place of my plow frame on the bottom. figure if it will push snow it should be avle to with stand some work duty. just cant see unbolting plow frame every spring just to put it back on in fall
 
I'd be glad to try and design something for that....however we don't get much so here in Phoenix so its kind of hard to find a snow plow....how different are the mounting points for the different plow companies? If I made it work for one does that mean it won't work for 30?
 
Bill,
You're coming off as a real dick in this thread. Let me give you examples because if you don't mean to, you might want to hear me out and see how it's coming across.

Everyone pretty much knows who I am, so I am not posting any pics of my stuff...I just want to see what everyone has, whether its a competitor or my product POST YOUR PICS!!!!! :rant:

First you post asking people to show their stuff. You just want to see what everyone has...

DunesRunner08 said:
I love Dent's truck, but I also love the pic he always post up because it helps prove my point...Look below the headlights at the huge gap that RA has? You'd think for being more money than mine that they'd fit the body lines as good as mine...lol...guess not...

Very first chance you get to bag on a direct competitor of yours, you take it before you even get off the first page.

:nopity: Thats what lift kits are for....lol :yesnod:

Then when dudes say they think your bumpers hang too low, you reply with this. Why should I have to buy a lift to get your bumper away from the ground?

See I hate the style of the ranch hand, lone star, frontier, tough country....I especially hate the Diamond Plate!!! Those bumpers fit on truck from the 1970's when they were designed, they are just hunks of scrap metal hanging off the front of a truck.... Now don't get me wrong, they still serve a purpose and the ranch hand is one solid hunk of scrap metal, but on the new age style trucks, you need new age styled bumpers...

No Offense meant to anyone....please don't take that as a bash session, its just my .02

I love this... so you then tell someone that you hate everything about the way their bumper looks... tell them it's out of date and from the 70's and then call them "just hunks of scrap metal hanging off the front of a truck". Are you ****ing kidding me? These guys are posting up pics of trucks they are proud of just because you asked to see them, and then you treat them like this... then you tell them, no offence meant. Yeah, don't take offence... but your truck looks like a pile of shit with that bumper on there that I asked to see pictures of. Wow, what a classy guy!

DunesRunner08 said:
why would you call it a road armor styled bumper? Its a plate steel bumper....not RA! lol


I know some guys like the 1970's style ranch hand tough country stuff...there's nothing I can do for them and I know that....we have passed through the 80's, 90's, and now were in 2008 so we design bumpers to fit the lines of todays trucks...not just throw a hunk of scrap metal on the front of a brand new truck.... Now please don't take offense to this if you have that scrap metal bumper, Its just not my taste. They are strong and can take a beating....I just like aestetics along with function. BTW for you guys that have the bumpers posted on here already...Your trucks are nice, just don't like the bumpers

Then when someone points out that your bumpers look just like road armor bumpers, you pretend like you never noticed. :rolleyes: Then you go right back to calling other bumpers relics from the past, scraps of metal, and ugly.

WTF did you start this thread? Just so you can kick the shit out of anyone that doesn't have your bumper? What a dick.

BTW, I'm not a fan of some of the bumpers posted either, but I would never insult the guys that posted them... saying "no offence" does not make multiple offensive remarks okay.

Berk, that's the nicest RH bumper I've seen.

I didn't mean to come across as a dick...my apologize for offending anyone...I was being defensive because the company I work for fights to get rid of the stigmatism that surrounds the industry. I wasn't bashing people for not having my brand, I was pointing out differences and then I got a little carried away and started to bash the ranchhand product's styling...as for you dent...I straight up said I liked your truck and just pointed out a big flaw in RA's product...and for the record...I have no problem with any of my competitor companies...except for one...

I never attacked anyones truck directly, I do like all the trucks that were posted and everyone is very proud of their trucks and I will give credit where credit is due.
 
One more thing blksmok....thank you....I am being serious...I didn't realize how much of a dick I sounded like till you pointed it out. I am truly sorry if I pissed anyone off and please don't take that as a reflection on how I am or how the company is.
 
dunes you didnt hurt my feelings at all,im bout as layed back as they get.but i did notice how you beat on all the ppl who didnt have your product.hell i even made a joke bout it in my rim job thread as i already stated.and if you made a rear with lights for my body style id prolly get it.
 
I told you before dent that all the new ones had lights...all the old ones didn't...so whenever you are ready, let me know and I'll get you the 1st one with lights....
 
Everyone gets along like family chris....but just like any family, someone always says something stupid to piss someone off....unfortunately it was my dumbass that said something stupid this time....lol
 
Well, I am glad you took as it was intended...

This is the way the flow of information can continue...

And I have been known to piss a few people off at times too...:sifone:
 
Don't have a pic yet unless I photoshop it....its the same lights as the NBS just in the OBS bumper...The actual program is in the computer ready to cut, I just was selling my stock out and waiting for more orders till I made it.
