I installed a brush guard/cowcatcher on my pickup to protect it when animals ran in front of me and it has saved me expensive repairs several times! So my question is do they make them for motorhomes ...
Surely there is a design engineer her or out there than can calculate forces of a deer, or a big Elk and how much metal structure is needed to save the front end. the frame rails on ours is a couple feet back from cap or less. Hitting a steer or locomotive will still mess things up pretty bad but not a deer. Maybe a real cow catcher design that we use to see on trains. Instead of adsorbing all the energy shed it to the side.....maybe not.
