i was driving down this road on way to meet a bunch a friends on friday afternoon when this old redneck in a jacked up truck forgets to look before makeing a left turn onto on comming traffic, need less to say i swerved to miss him and my car was goulged from the driver's side headlight until the wheel fender. my car was much lower than his and it basically went under his. the cops and the insurance agecncy both said it was his fault so his insurance is going to cover it. sigh..... this sucks.

Sorry to hear about the accident, but at least you weren't injured.

Is your stook silver by chance and did the accident happen during the day? I think the silvers tend to be a bit hard to see during the day. Just curious

Sorry to hear that. Hope you are back on the road again soon.

I parked next to a Land Cruiser at work this week and could not help but notice how our car is the size of an ant next to an SUV/Full-size Truck.

That's too bad...but if the headlight is damaged, maybe it's an excuse to get clear corners!

So, a monster truck ran over your stook I had a delivery van back onto the top of my front bumper at a red light two weeks into owning the car, it sucks. Just be sure to really do your homework when finding a body shop and things will turn out well.

P.S. That does it, I'm running my silver with the lights on 24/7.
