1. No practical use for it.
2. The truck barely fits in the garage as it is.
3. My masculinity is just fine.
4. Doesn't make the truck look better.
5. But, you do you, whatever floats your boat.
Then perhaps it is not for you.

Sorry but that is extremely ugly.

If you can make something lIke this it would be great. I had it with my Tacoma and it protected my front end from being damaged during several of accidents caused by other drivers. Also dor people who side swiped me, this bar caused their body panels to peel open like a tin can.
There's plenty of stuff made in Australia.... They usually have distributors here....

BUT... to Maxzina... these have been tested and are made with regard to the manufacturer requirements and design standards.... eg airbags, crumple zones etc...

I see that you are a reseller of accessories (based in China?) and not a company with a location so I would caution you on going down this path without proper certification or testing....as I'm sure the members here will want details..... specially if in an accident it goes sideways.....

Cheers

Just a simple clean bull bar that does not interfere with sensors/camera would be great

Unless that is designed to withstand a deer/elk impact, it just becomes a damage multiplier when someone does hit one.
Yes! It would protect the lights and my grill.
Where I am there are serious critters
That thing they have shown is not going to protect anything.

When people hit deer with these guards the tendency is for the animal to get flipped up and go through the window and into the passengers. These also can prevent the airbag activators from deploying the airbags in the event of a collision.

Just want to give a shout-out to Maxzina for this great idea!!! I was pleasantly suprised to received this storage locking cover in just a couple of days. Thanks to Maxzina for letting me be a tester and reviewer of this accessory.

I was able to swap out the storage cover in just a matter of minutes and it fits perfectly on my 2024 F150 XLT. I've attached some pictures showing what it looks like with the cover in place. I had to adjust the lock a little to make sure it was lined up properly. Everything works just like it should and the fitment is spot on.

Thanks a bunch Maxzina!!!!

Got it.

While I think some form of guard on the front end is great, I think one that would protect both the vehicle and occupants by directing the object to one side would serve a better purpose. While bull bars look decent on some trucks, I think some type of brush guard is the better option on a full size pickup. Also, having the ability to utilize the sensors and cameras and cruise control module while having an effective bumper/brush guard is critical on the newer model trucks. And if it's customizable, that would be an added plus. Options to add a winch plate, or a receiver hitch would be beneficial.
