Grill guards are a total waste, imo. If you hit a deer or anything substantial you'll do more damage than not having one at all. Look at replacement bumpers that are heavy and bolt to the frame. That will offer actual protection.

Not necessarily true. The Ranch Hand- the one that is integrated into the front bumper- will stop any deer you hit. To really be a deer stopper- it has to be that kind. I just put a heavy-duty Westin brush guard on my truck, and it's pretty beefy. I would think it would stop any damage from a deer, but haven't hit one yet to find out. Again, the only REAL protection is the integrated one. I think the one you're looking at is not that kind. They run about $1200.00 if I remember right. One more thing- check out Auto Anything. They had the best prices I've found, free and fast shipping.
