Ditto. I kept expecting a shirtless Vladimir Putin to come riding by on white stallion headed for a weekend in the Caucasus mountains.

X2!

Truck campers can always use extra storage and a way to configure the stairs and type of stairs that you want to use.

The commercial was 3:47 . The nonsense intro, horrible really, went over a minute. Maybe they got the owners 5th grader to write the copy to save $$$.
As for the bumper....... I would want to know the weight added. Im not thinking the extra storage would be worth the trade off. As another put it, KISS ,Keep It Simple Stupid.

I like it...One of the biggest gripe I have with my Lance is the step sets to close to the bumper making it a little tricky for a fatman with bad knees to make that step down. A porch would be nice..

Hmm-nice. I dunno that slide out porch, attaching flip over to either side would be nice when towing. Looks like the flip over uses standard brackets, be easier to use than the Fox bumper which bolts on (if you wanted to swap sides).
Commercial a lil dramatic though. Did say 'uses a strut assembly for easy install to any Lance? retrofit?
But on towing-did I hear correctly "with any extension 48" or greater".
I dont remember where is the sewer hose storage?

It's transformational.

It allows for towing and has a place for the sewer hose, did you not listen or is it a memory problem?

If you are looking for negatives I think it will be cost.

video did not play that far first time I watched it. It is still not something I would want. Violates my version of the KISS principle.

oh boy...This always happens with lance. They are always the last manufacture to come out with something then make a huge dramatic entry on how theirs is the "best". Sorry but af, ec, palomino, northern lite, have had nice custom bumpers for years. I bet torklift is making a shiny penny from lance with this one.
