accident to Her car

i looked down to grab my phone and rolled in to this lady going no more than 3mph and look what happened to her car only a little scratch to my front plastic. and i know its going to be a lot of $$$.. just cant believe how easily it all crinkled. the f150 really has some stout bumper and tow hooks! they have saved me a couple of times. the husband was a **** and had to have a police report so now i will probably have a point or two on my record.. just what i need

you are in California and hit an Audi, of course the husband was a a-- hole! Sorry to hear you have to shell out the cash, but good for your truck its just scratched!

Reminds me of when my father in law backed into my truck before Christmas, i have a little dent in the bed and a small ripple in the suicide door, his bumper had to be replaced, and i think his tail light on his Carola.
Basically, go ford trucks!

Or its all plastic, like his bumper was. I was a little upset when he told me he hit it, but when I saw his car and then my truck, I didnt really care lol. Its a used truck that already had dents and dings, one more isnt a big deal. I still love it

Next time, don't be a dumbass. If you had paid attention to driving instead of grabbing your f'kin' cell phone, we wouldn't be posting in this thread right now.

Don't be too impressed with the the damage to her car. You hit it in the weakest part, the trunk lid, it's not designed to take an impact there.

Oh, I share Quintin's opinion 100%.

Audi's are junk.

My neighbors have them, and they are constantly working on them... I don't know why they keep on buying them.

Next time: Don't be trying to find your phone and you won't have this kind of accident.

However, if it happens again, try and resize the picture so we can see it all at the same time

Anytime someone hits me I'm instantly a *****. Dealing with insurance and not having your vehicle sucks.
