805gregg. I have a Buckstop bumper now but usually reserve the front hitch for my mtn bike carrier. It is an awesome bumper and it houses my Warn 16.5Ti. Plus I'm worried about the restricted air flow with a tire up front. With the bikes up front I haven't had a problem with engine temps. I went with two spares after having two tire failures in Tahoe. So when I do extended trips/miles I want to have a back up spare.
Looks like I'm leaning more towards just putting it on the roof in the cheesy factory roof rack and having to worry about getting it down when I come to that point. Guess, I'll set it and forget it until I need it?
