2.5 Gen Bumpers!

Haven't seen your name around here in forever. Cool to see you back around! I remember you sold your Tundra and bought a Sprinter? Did you end up building that out?

Here's my Coastal front bumper to stay kind of relevant

 

Sprinter was built (and will soon be for sale), daily duties were replaced by an INEOS Grenadier last year which I built out I traded in on a '25 Tundra this past weekend...

To be relevant, here's the ARB on my '21... Taken 3.5 years ago

 

@Mallcrl guess you didn't like the Ineos?

 

No, the absolute opposite, it was awesome. Stupidly capable, very comfortable (at least for me, my better half much prefers the Tundra), and great for what it was built for (long distance off road travel).

Full disclosure, I was a day 1 reservation holder for it (2021), and I (along with my girlfriend) was a pro-driver for their US Prototype tour in 2023 (allowing reservation holders to drive them off road prior to production). My truck's production was delayed about 5 months so I didn't get it until April '24, but it was a fantastic vehicle. Definitely quirky, but it isn't something that will leave you stranded anywhere. I just have a horrible problem with loving the build process of vehicles more than owning them, and was presented with the opportunity by my better half to go to a 2-truck lifestyle (daily/travel vehicle and then a trail truck). Both of us regretted selling the Tundra within days/weeks of selling it ~3 years ago and it has been on my radar ever since. A local dealer had almost exactly what I wanted (a rare combo) sitting on a lot and gave me way more than I expected on trade-in for the Grenadier (which also meant I didn't have to fix all the little niggles that I would have prior to private sale).

 

Just to stay in the game - the SSO is holding up well!
