Yesterday I was rear ended by a ford truck. Traffic was stopped but he did not. While there was quite a bit of damage to my Jeep, my LOD bumper destroyed the front of the truck. I will never own another Jeep without one of their bumpers on it as it may have very well saved my life.

Well, I'm going to ask the big question. Is everyone okay? That's kind of my biggest concern. However, I am glad that your Jeep fared well.

Everyone is fine, just real sore. I’m sure now the fights will start with the insurance company not wanting to pay for aftermarket items like bumper, tailgate table, rear lights, bed cover. I just had the dealership install the lift kit 2 days ago, one shock destroyed. To make matters worse I was driving from FL to PA, accident happened in SC, so now I’m in a rental and will have to come back to SC to settle everything. I just wish people would pay attention when they drive.

Hire a personal injury attorney and make sure you run car fax and KBBB reports now before the incident goes on the vehicle's history. Use that to evidence the diminished re-sale value of your Jeep because of this collision and make a claim for diminished value with the insurance company of the guy who hit you. Even if the Jeep is fixed to like it was before the wreck, it won't be worth as much, just a fact.

I have the same LOD bumper, which makes me feel good all over.

YOU don't go back any place and settle anything. That's what YOU pay insurance for. That's their job. Good luck :like: and glad everyone is relatively OK.

Well Jeep was totaled. I had all my receipts for the aftermarket items, in total I got back all but about 5,000. I do not think that is bad for a 2 year old Jeep. If anyone else has the misfortune to have their Jeep totaled and you have a lot of aftermarket parts, ask them for an appraisal from an independent company, they added about 6,000 to my final value. Now to find a replacement and start all over

I’ve got replacement value riders on my Jeep. Saved me a bundle when my KL was written off. It was a gamble when I put the rider on, but worth it when I needed it.
