I currently drive a JKU with steel bumpers (AEV as part of the Backcountry Package) and wonder about the degree to which the lack of a crumpling bumper makes the Jeep even less safe (current safety rating, I think, is just 1 star). I suppose with a steel bumper any impact will transfer all kinetic energy right to the driver. Anyone know about the safety differences between the two in a high-speed impact.
Low impact seems ideal for steel bumpers, but I worry more about the hazardous impacts.
