I appreciate hearing that some products last. Thanks.

For steelersfan and RaiderH8r89, I can do without the hate speech. It has been many years since I cared to mimic the behavior of others in a fervent need to belong to the pack. When you use disparaging words like "beaner" and "gay and cheap" it tells me you are not a deep thinker and I should disregard your opinions.

Sorry just my opinion dont take my word though look around on the roads. Not many people who have them that should tell you something if if was something that people thought looked good there would be a lot more because its very affordable

We drop lights on the front and tops of out trucks, why not on the back too?

I'm looking at recon for my truck too

Default Hey PJB

thats just your opinion. There are old people on here as well LOL but he only asked for a good product to buy lol, i just sold a beautiful 1992 f150 it had the diamond toolbox and matching diamond bed plates and running boards with mud flaps but no visor also diamond rear bumper. and i sold it to a co worker and when other coworkers found out he bought it they were mad cause i never told them it was for sale it looked really cool, now as for my 2003 i dont want most of those things for it, however i am also in the market for the light bar as i think they are really cool and help with other drivers seeing you. however i had one from autozone and it faded somewhat but it was double sided tape stick on and tape failed, but i used it for a longtime with no bulbs failing. i replced stock headlights and taillights and after install i felt it looked trashy to me and i resold them on ebay and went back to stock. I am open to any suggestions on some nice aftermarket upgrades. and interested in knowing of a good light bar for under tailgate.

Will spoken, you beat me to the punch, I'm Mexican American and damn proud of it, the BEANER responds is not called for or the gay remark. You should think before texting something that could be taken in the wrong way. By the way I'm a U.S. Army Veteran what have u done for ur Country.

You're seriously going to start that fight? Good light bars look good on trucks! There are several trucks on the forum that have those lights and they look great. It's not just Mexicans and blacks with ugly *** trucks... there are plenty of whites that make us regret being white....

If you don't like how they look the good, I don't like how the cheaply made ones look either. This thread was started to simply ask for a good brand, not an opinion and not to start race wars. If you absolutely have to share your opinion about then then start a thread for that (please!), maybe even make if a pole of how many like/dislike them

lightbars look good on trucks, not to mention increase visibility at night or in a snowstorm or fog or whatever. If you dont like them then dont put them on your truck, you dont have to whine about it and act all immature on an internet forum, its not like we are making fun of you about the stupid stuff you put on your trucks, haha!

No, it wasnt Calvin. I remember that comic from when I was a kid.
It was an old hood ornament from way before the cartoon and wasnt a cartoon kid at all. Just a brass (he later spray painted it silver) figure. I dont know where it came from but he had it on atleast 3 different trucks.
