The Conversation Pit
This is where EVERYTHING else goes. No subject is too mundane. How's the weather in your area? Did your kid cut his first tooth? Really, what do you think about the President? And don't get me started on Cummins and Duramaxes. Have at it!

Dang! (or should I say... Ding? ) I'm sorry to hear that. But as they say, no good deed goes unpunished.

Glad that nobody was hurt and that you kept your cool and she didn't blow up all over you screaming how it was your fault or anything. People tend to get entirely to excitable when an accident has occurred.

On a side note, isn't it amazing how much it costs to fix that bed? I was in an accident 17 years ago where a person pulled out of a parking spot in front of me and I hit the bed of the Mazda pickup. They don't make panels for it so they had to replace the whole bed. Cost $2800 to get it repaired. Fortunately it was their fault and the only reason I knew how much it cost was because my buddy ran the body shop where it was fixed.

Hopefully everything will be good as new. Try to enjoy the rest of your weekend.

AND, I'll add that visibility out of the back of our trucks is actually pretty crappy. So given that she was driving an f150, maybe it's not all her fault. I know I'm a super-grandpa when backing this thing, and I'm happy I have backup sensors. It's great that she was a good citizen about it!

I got backed into in a parking lot once (two trucks ago) by some poor old soul who was handicapped. (He hit me with his wheelchair rack). What was kind of funny was that his Wife denied that they'd even hit me! (I saw them coming, but because of crossing traffic I couldn't move - all I could do was honk my horn, which did no good). :sadface: He was a nice guy though, and I decided I could repair the damage myself, which I did. The dents weren't quite as deep as yours, but mine was scratched badly. I'm glad my paint was white. Silver is an absolute pain to "blend".

Kind of sucks, but at least nobody got hurt. It's crazy how expensive it is to fix the simplest of things. You just wouldn't think it would be that bad.
