Sitting at a stoplight minding my own business and got rear-ended by a 2018 Honda Civic. Only damaged the bumper of the Ranger, nearly destroyed the Civic, I have attached a short dashcam video. The other driver was cited and has insurance so no big deal but all were impressed by the sturdiness of the Ranger.

Oh man, that sucks. Even if the damage isn't bad it always sucks to have your baby hurt. Any pics of the damage to the other guy (and your bumper?)

Didn't bother me much. Just glad I wasn't driving my other car. THAT could have been ugly.

Nice! is that for 2” receiver ? Does it mess with the back up sensors at all?
Yes it's in my Ford receiver and no effect on back up sensors:)

Get one with both front and rear cameras, they are really getting cheap . Wish I would have had a rear camera for this event. It will be my next purchase.
