Did anyone jump on the Motobilt Crusher limited production front bumper order?

Is it just me or is this extremely counterintuitive? From everything I've read you want steel to contact the rocks as it will resist the wear better, it's why @Fluxor provides stainless steel rash guards on his bumpers and sliders. Not to mention the irony of a heavy steel bumper and then making the skid of all things lightweight.

It isn't the only thing that doesn't make much sense about that bumper.

Probably not T6061
So will they keep replacements in the inventory?

it says their tools go cold after the last one is made.

Can we start a side conversation about how they jacked the price up in part because this is a 1 of 50 bumper....? How is rare good when we plan to smack our bumpers on rocks, logs, etc? They should just keep building stinger bumpers.
 
We make only a few so we don’t have to work much and you have to pay a big price.

I’m sure they will trip over their arrogance anytime now.

Yeah, false scarcity isn't what we're looking for in Jeep parts, these aren't collectors items, they are wear items that will need replacement eventually.

Kinda cool looking for those that got it.
Not a fan of limited run things. Just because others don’t get it doesn’t mean it should be worth more. But I know someone will pay that price.
It seems like my old crusher base. So kinda silly they are charging so much more for it when most of it is something they’ve designed and sold for a while.
Functionally same as a crusher. The aluminum seems to be aesthetically driven only. Same with the other changes of recover point and the bull bar. Maybe if it was more unique they could justify the cost. Maybe add more anodized aluminum and offer it the same colors as everyone is painting their hinges and door handles lol.
I got rid of my crusher front bumper for a few reasons. This one being 3 times what I spent still doesn’t solve any of my issues with it.
 
why someone would buy this boat anchor of a bumper when the fluxor bumper exists is beyond me lol

You're fooling yourself if you think they will only produce 50 of these. They will find some kind of marketing buzzwords as to why they had to 'RE-OPEN THE VAULT DUE TO OVERWHELMING DEMAND' at which point the #/50 will not be as exclusive as the people who paid $1,499. Marketing is a wonderful thing.

Ain't that the truth. Few people understand it, but when you do, you understand just how powerful of a thing it is.

One thing you'll never bitch about Motobilt for is delays and lead times. Damn thing already shipped.

That's awesome! Gotta love when companies operate like that.

I guess you never know, but I've met a bunch of the Motobilt guys (and gals) and they've never given me a reason to doubt their word.

I still wouldn't be as mad as one of the guys with a '24 Final Edition 392, lol.
