7. The bumper assembly of claim 6 , wherein the one of the bumper and the crush can include a housing for slideably receiving the clip.

8. The bumper assembly of claim 7 , wherein the housing includes a slot sized to receive the flange when the flange is in the deployed position.

9. The bumper assembly of claim 6 , wherein the slider is operably connected to the clip.

10. The bumper assembly of claim 9 , wherein a cable connects the slider and the clip.

11. The bumper assembly of claim 9 , wherein the slider is slideable between a first position and a second position, wherein when the slider is in the first position the flange is in the deployed position, and wherein when the slider is in the second position the flange is in the retracted position.

12. A secondary bumper assembly comprising:

a secondary bumper extending along a longitudinal axis;

a hand-actuated release supported by the secondary bumper and having an arm attachable to a vehicle, the arm being moveable between an engaged position for engagement with the vehicle and a disengaged position for disengagement with the vehicle; and

a clip operably connected to the hand-actuated release and having a flange moveable between a deployed position and a retracted position.

13. The secondary bumper assembly of claim 12 , wherein the hand-actuated release includes a slider, the slider operably connected to the arm to move the arm between the engaged and disengaged positions, wherein the slider is slideable between a first position and a second position, wherein when the slider is in the first position the arm is in the engaged position, and wherein when the slider is in the second position the arm is in the disengaged position.

14. The secondary bumper assembly of claim 12 , wherein the hand-actuated release includes a slider operably connected to the clip.

15. The secondary bumper assembly of claim 14 , wherein a cable connects the slider and the clip.

16. The secondary bumper assembly of claim 12 , wherein a slider is slideable between a first position and a second position, wherein when the slider is in the first position the flange is in the deployed position, and wherein when the slider is in the second position the flange is in the retracted position.

17. The secondary bumper assembly of claim 12 , wherein the secondary bumper includes a secondary bumper wall, and a first secondary bumper leg and a second secondary bumper leg spaced from each other and extending from the secondary bumper wall in a first direction away from the secondary bumper wall.

18. The secondary bumper of claim 17 , wherein the hand-actuated release is attached to an inner surface of the first secondary bumper leg, the first secondary bumper leg including a recess extending through the first secondary bumper leg, and the arm extendable through the recess.

19. A secondary bumper assembly comprising:

a secondary bumper extending along a longitudinal axis; and

a hand-actuated release supported by the secondary bumper and having an arm attachable to a vehicle, the arm being moveable between an engaged position for engagement with the vehicle and a disengaged position for disengagement with the vehicle;

wherein the secondary bumper includes a secondary bumper wall, and a first secondary bumper leg and a second secondary bumper leg spaced from each other and extending from the secondary bumper wall in a first direction away from the secondary bumper wall; and

wherein the hand-actuated release is attached to an inner surface of the first secondary bumper leg, the first secondary bumper leg including a recess extending through the first secondary bumper leg, and the arm extendable through the recess.
