Was involved in a chain reaction wreck yesterday; a 10,000 lb box truck plowed into the Jeep Compass behind me, pushed him into me and us both 25 or so feet into a Toyota iA. I’m lucky that the damage was limited to the bumpers!
I need the front for a cruck with no rub strips, no bumper guards, license bracket for the front, and maybe a rear-it’s not as bad.

Looks like no Adults were hurt but the baby seemed a little shaken(elky 😅 ). Always a good thing when Dem big'ol steel bumpers do their job! The Soccer Mom SUV is probably totaled tho 😄. I didnt want to offend any hard core Jeep people by saying the Compass is totaled. I always liked the the older 60's,70's and early 80's Jeep Wagoneer. the New one is a Travesty(my opinion). I'm sure there are plenty G-body bumpers out there...good Luck!

The passenger in the Compass was transported, complaining of neck pain. I’m sore from it. I was lucky that the Jeep took the initial impact; it crumpled and absorbed some of the energy, plus the bumper height of the truck would have been the middle to top of my tailgate. I’m don’t know if the dumba55 driving the truck was even braking. You can see how far I was pushed from the skid marks.
