TRUCK GUARD &
GRILLE GUARD REVIEWS

Real feedback from drivers, fleets, municipalities, and commercial trucking professionals who rely on HERD protection systems every day.

“I recently had the opportunity to speak to a man named Ray located out of Washington. It was an interesting week because I was receiving at least two calls a day for Grille Guards. The problem: Mating season for Buck! The solution: Grille Guards! Ray began to tell me he needed to replace his original Texas Bumper due to an accident. He told me this investment saved his life and he had no downtime after a recent nearly head-on collision. He wanted to replace the one he got to protect him again. He told me it paid for itself! We can see how. The car hit almost on the end of the guard and took nearly all of the impact. The car was totaled. He had zero down days due to the guard protecting his fender, lights, and well, all of his truck! He said this was an investment others should also make! Ray’s new guard will be delivered soon and he is a forever HERD Customer!”

Driver Hit A Cow

“Last summer we had a driver hit a cow. This is all that happened to the bumper. Truck drove away from the crash to the closest pullout and was hauled home just to be safe, but sure held up nice!”
