Coming soon.

My 2012 has a Rigid 40". Been wanting to try an M&R bar for a while. I ordered a 40" M&R for the 2013 Raptor today. Hopefully it'll come next week and I'll post up some side by side vs shots of the 2 bars.

I'm pretty excited to see them head to head.

I know Rigid will definately beat M&R in the ability to take on moisture! lol

I appreciate all the M&R responses. Post your replies. I don't think there is anyone on here with moisture problems : )

So that's what a clean truck looks like? Digging the beadlocks.

Thanks! You get a pretty good view on the beadlock wheels with both the trucks in the same shot.I really like them. Hopefully I can come up with another set for the terrain truck.

If I do find another set of beadlock wheels I think I am going to order a set of Nitto Terra Grappler tires for them. I've been seeing a lot of them lately and they look really aggressive. I think they'd be a nice fit.

If your bashing one brand even before the test I don't think anyone will be interested in a biased result, except maybe M&R of course.

Here's my unbiased opinion. The Rigid is a straight shot beam that Reaches really far. The M&R is more of a flood and lights everything up more but doesnt go as far. The Rigid bar does have more of a pure white light, while the M&R has alil yellow to it. The Rigid bar does feel alittle more heavy duty then the M&R. But even Mr. Bird has mention he's had no problems off roading while using the M&R light bar. I was hopping the Rigid bar would be more of a flood like the M&R, but it wasn't. I love how Rigid has the lifetime warranty & that's what made me try their 40" E. I do have Rigid specters for my fogs so I hope no one thinks im just a fan boy of M&R. In the end it comes down to your preference. Flood vs Spot.
