What Customers Are Saying

No Damage To Our Truck."This is from a DriveCam snapshot of the event where my driver hit several deer, within a couple of days of the Ex-Guard installation. No damage to our truck thanks to the deer guard. He stopped, looked the truck over, and continued on his way."

– George Akerson | President | Dahlsten Truck Line | Lincoln, NE

Passing The Test! "Your bumper has already been tested with a deer running in front of our truck and no damage whatsoever. These will be big savings in the future for sure. We had a recent incident that took over $20k to fix! I don’t think we would have had a huge repair cost with this bumper."

– Andrew McConnell | Kawartha Metals

Bollards Bash More Than Bucks!

Did you know? When it comes to front end accidents, 9x more are from hitting fixed objects - not deer! Fleets have reduced their replacement parts budget by up to 97% using Ex-Guard!

What Customers Are Saying

Just When We Thought We’d Hit Everything."The truck was sucked off the road in icy, muddy conditions and hit a concrete post head-on at 21 mph. The Ex-Guard acted as a cradle, preventing any damage to the truck itself."

– Jerry Young | President | Dahlsten Truck Line | Lincoln, NE

No Damage To Our Truck."Proving the ROI is so easy compared to any other truck add-on.

What Customers Are Saying

Ex-Guard, You Are LifeSavers!"I am firmly convinced that without your Ex-Guard XG-150 that the damage to my truck would have included the engine and have gotten up to and included the firewall and cab of the truck. I believe in looking at the photos that your product minimized the damage to my truck to the $40,000 estimate, stopped the intrusion into my rig and it absorbed a majority of the impact."

– Paul Ahles | Hopkins, MN
Paul Ahles Ex-Guard Testimonial

Every Truck Gets One!"Since we put these on, a LOT less money spent on bumpers. We put [Ex-Guards] on and not even two months later we were saying ‘Every truck gets one!’"

– David Giese | America’s Service Line, LLC

Will A Guard Be Too Heavy?

We get it - maxing out capacity is king. That’s why Ex-Guard offers several options in weight, size, and protection. Starting at just 118 lbs., your fleet gets everyday protection that far outweighs what you’re paying to fix crashes, dings, and dents. Every pound matters, but if dollars are more important, you need protection.

What Customers Are Saying

We Are Very Pleased! "We are a very weight conscious fleet, and where the weight is located has actually been a benefit, and the weight had decreased significantly from what the guards used to be."

– Brent Hickman | Sr Manager Equipment, Maintenance, Fleet Sales | Pilot Flying J

Will Guards Impact My Fuel Efficiency?

Zero impact! That’s what a renowned testing firm said about our LT-325 guard when it comes to fuel impact. Starting at no impact and maxing out at 4 gallons/10,000 miles, Ex-Guard’s aerodynamic designs whisper in the wind while providing a powerful line of defense.

What MVTS Has Confirmed

The Ex-Guard XG-150G3 and the XG-125G3 fuel loss can be considered, "minimal" when considering the magnitude of the system on the front of the vehicle"
