    Had a little fender bender on I-90 here in NY. Accident in the median ahead of me made the guy in front of me decide to slam on his brakes in packed traffic in the middle of the lane, and I was pulling my camper as well so the brakes couldn't stop us in time. Luckily it's just cosmetic as his hitch ball hit my aluminum crash bar on the front of the truck. No damage to my camper either :bananadance:. So I am looking for a MGM bumper with the matte black chin and a new aluminum crash bar with that plastic crush stuff on the front. All else is ok as far as I can tell. The crash bar did its job and took the impact. Any leads or help, upgrade advice would be greatly appreciated!

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    Wow. Sorry to hear but if no air bag deployment, I think you got lucky!

    I think that is the Southern Style Offroad one. A couple different companies make them. They range $300-600. Pic isn't my truck, just one i had saved in my phone for possible future mods

    You’re probably looking at $650 for that specific bumper plus a winch. So for that setup pictured you’re looking at roughly $900.

    Thanks I really appreciate the help for sure! Luckily our speed difference was only about 5mph for the impact, so everyone was fine, but they all woke from their sleep. The truck damage was also really small for an accident on a 65mph highway. At the end of the day it was only a small inconvenience compared to what it could've been, but the new foreign exchange student living with us probably thinks I'm trying to kill him. I felt really horrible. Glad someone was watching over us.

    Got lucky! I saw a post yesterday of a poor guy that had totalled out his Tacoma after falling asleep on the hwy. He got lucky and ended up with a good scare and a few bruises but the rolled Tacoma was definitely dead
