I have been thinking about getting one also, but I am a little worried about 1 thing with the brush gaurd. My father bought a new Durango when they first came out and had a brush gaurd installed. Well sombody backed into him (pretty hard) and it smashed up the whole front end (hood, quarters, grill, lights and bumper), the guy at the body shop told him that if he didn't have the guard the damage would have been much less. Does this make sense to you guys? What do you think?
