Well, I was rear ended at speed today on Highway 70 coming into work near the Earth City Expressway. Traffic came to a quick stop. I was able to stop but the Liberty behind me plowed into me. I'm going to need a new tail gate for sure, but other than that I think I'm ok.

I have to say, the Expedition One rear bumper can take some SERIOUS abuse!


Here's my damage:







Here's the guy who hit me:

I think that Liberty is totaled. Good to hear the bumper help up so well, but still make sure you have a shop check the frame on your Jeep just to make sure.

Wow, that is pretty crazy. That liberty was no match for your bumper.

Glad you came out OK.

Jeep vs Jeep..... oh well, pays to have more than just a bumper back there. The tire took a major hit as well...

Wow! That is pretty good advertisement for Expedition One. With the looks of the other vehicle I would have the Jeep's frame inspected for possible damage. That guys must have been moving . . .
Glad to hear that you are okay though.

if you look closely you can see the liberty bleeding from underneath

Wow! Amazing how different each Jeep looks from the same accident. wow

Glad you are OK! I am pretty sure my stock bumper would not have fared so well! Now I want a new rear bumper even more!

Looks like your bumper took a pretty good hit. Not that they are built for a collision like that, but if the tire wasn't mounted to the tailgate, you might not have had any tailgate damage at all!

The Jeep

All the more reason Jeeps should come with a real bumper.
