    Need spare tire advice

    never. doesn't sound like much fun, especially in the snow on side of a mountain in middle of nowhere, which is why i initially rejected it and was just looking at bumper options.

    "armor"

    when people here use the word "armor" as in, for example, "you will want armor for this trail" what do they mean, and what are the normal minimum and maximums? i am aware of aftermarket and factory plates that protect parts of the drive train like differentials. And of course, the more...
