Haha it's my reliable winter beater. Got the Camaro out the other day to take care of the next couple weeks until I can get my bike out, Sooooo much sand down on the ground

I take it you guys use sand to get rid of the ice?? Michigan uses salt which works great but rusts your truck like no other... so, sandblast your front end or rust out the bottom??? i'd sandblast haha

ouch, i'm sorry to hear both.. snow is fun though, especially with 4x4... its pretty fun in 4x2 also. at least your two "toys" stayed nice and dry/clean right?

Yup, gotta keep the toys all tucked away.

So I've been debating between a bull bar and a brush guard for the Blazer. I'm not sure what I'd like better.

For yours....bull bar. I think it would suit it better.

Thats more or less what I was thinking. I did find a very nice brush guard for 250 that I liked.

I dunno...a brush guard doesn't really fit with the style of your truck IMO...But I guess I'd have to see it to judge it. And of course, it's up to you

I'm debating if the flares will balance out the look of having a brush guard or not.
