That is one heck of a review! Glad you were unscathed.kmacafee said:I had a Tacoma with an Aluminess rear bumper. Sitting at a stop light, I was rear ended by a vehicle driven by a guy who had just robbed a convenience store. Police estimated he was driving in excess of 60 mph at impact. The truck frame was twisted and the drivers seat back broken but I walked away unscathed. The thin stock bumper on the Tacoma would have crumpled instantly and I most likely would have been injured. The bumper was obviously damaged beyond repair but the box structure of it survived and acted like a crumple zone.
The vehicle that hit me, a Jeep, had the engine pushed back into the passenger compartment crushing the legs of his passenger.
They may be aluminum, but they are stout.
