that is an area about which I know very little but I'm thoroughly enjoying learning about various lights and light bars

FIRST USE .....

the first use of the Badlands winch we installed on our Chevy Silverado was a success .... last May we had one heck of a wind storm that brought down a large pine tree on the back line of our place .... the force of the fall drove one of the limbs into the ground .... in the first picture about 10" of the limb can be seen sticking out of the ground .... the second picture a couple of fee of the limb out of the ground .... the last shows the entire 5'+ limb out of the ground .... no clue how much force was required .... do know that setting the parking brake with the transmission in park pulled the truck toward the limb .... had to fully apply the trucks brakes to anchor it so as pull out the log

OOOOOOOOOOOoooooo so you can say it's a real truck now? That is pretty heavy duty.
You look like the real grandpa, good on you.
Nice way to test your "Real Chevy Truck" (hahahahahhehehe)
