Sorry, my bad for the confusion about TJ working for Shrock. Sure looked like it from his post. Obviously the post didn't get yanked because you do NOT work there. However...

TJ, you said, "I also never said anything untrue in the comparisons between the bumpers..." I call Shenanigans. You specifically stated that "The consensus is..." That indicates a collective opinion, NOT your own. Did you post a poll? How can you make that statement? Where did you get your data?

You also say, "A few people want the winch completely exposed though.." What's "a few?" 3? 130? everyone except for you? What does that mean? Its pointed and shady and wrong. Tell people that YOU prefer to have the winch hidden. That's truth. Other people don't need you to make that decision for them. Do you know for a fact that the majority of wheelers out there prefer a hidden and unaccessible winch to an exposed one?

The bottom line is/was, I felt "deceived" by your initial post after I found out who you "really were." Just be careful how you say things.

Also, if anyone cares to post Brent's latest misadventure... I (for one) would certainly love the read!
