I see many newer trucks with fucked up bumpers (especially company-owned vehicles). Like just one corner is twisted or dented. What's causing this?

But why just that rear bumper and mostly the corner?

Unaware ot the truck’s ‘perimeters’. Backing into stuff.

I think they catch it on another bumper or some fixed object like a guardrail or something else.

This is correct. They underestimate the bumper clearance needed and catch the edge on something. I've seen a few get caught gas station pump guards as they pull out of the pump lane.

You get rear ended by a fucking spic flying down the highway that doesn't have insurance and the modern design of the fucking bumper means you have to pay $2k to replace a bunch of fucking bent brackets that you can't see or else a new bumper won't seat properly on it.
