    The bumper on the peterbilt in my profile pic is a herd super road train.

    The reason why is simple. The bumper costs 6500, how much does it cost when you hit a deer? Hood, bumper, rad, headlights, cac, condenser and the big one..... down time. How much do you lose with your truck being down for a month waiting on parts, insurance deductibles and rates go up.

    Now think of that if you hit a moose or elk, Lots around where I works. I watched a guy take a bull on at highway speed (minus the speed lost from mashing his brakes at the last second) and hit it dead centre, the bumper bent back and cracked his hood. He went back to work right away.

    Also where I operate out of my insurance company give me a rate cut for having a wildlife protection bumper on.

    such things are not legal in Europe... They say if u hit car ore pedestrian - this guard kills!

    In ex-USSR we use to call it Cangoo guard, becouse myth says, they appeared in Australia to protect vehicles if u hit cangoo on road, and really Aussy companies used to sell these things 10-15 years ago here.
