Regarding the stereo comment - 9 speakers vs 4 - Yes, there was a difference between the two - but in my opinion, it wasn't worth the "cost" of buying the Limited package to get it. I have basically the same stereo (4 speaker) in my 2007 F150 Lariat SuperCrew...It's been more ...
I know how tough the stock bumper already is so I wasn't worried about damaging it while winching. On the other hand, if there was an accident and the bumper was damaged, all I need to do to fix it is go to the parts yard and pick up another from an F150, trim it up to fit...
