I backed into a tree while off roading. I couldn't see it because my 37" spare restricts my rear view almost completely...I love it!!!
If you look closely you'll see that I pushed the bumper in until it hit the body, then the tree smashed the tail light, broke one of the plastic covers off the gate hinge and then a permanent dent on the corner of the body. All has been fixed now and I have a rear LoD bumper so that won't be happening again!
I guess I thought I had to match the rear to the front. So while climbing over a fallen tree deep in the forest I slid down the other side and hit another tree. I don't think the forest wanted me there that day...
Won't happen again because I put an LoD up there as well!

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:
