I don't know if I'd want that thing fixed . . .

Door doesn't look to be damaged though, so that's a big portion of money saved there

doesn't look all that bad honestly. Its all in the value of the car vs damage. You can literally fix anything....

True, it probably only looks bad because of the way the hood and fender got crumpled strangely. But cars are NEVER the same after major accidents IMO, no matter what you do. And they get a lot of their value taken away. Little things are always screwy and off, things away from the contact area are at least minorly warped and moved. I even hate repainted body panels because the orange peel doesn't match . . . I'm fine with scratches and dings though haha

On the road to Athens. Filling up in Waxahachie. Never thought I would see gas for 2.83 again.

I can only remember seeing that in movies ha

I'm still thankful that our gas isn't $3 per LITER like in Europe. But I'm sure our taxes will put it there eventually . . .

Good job with that write up, truckguy

I can't even get a gumball for 18 cents . . . You can't get anything for 18 cents now! Stupid inflation. A pound of candy was still a nickel then, right?

I'd put 110 octane race fuel in my truck if 87 cost $0.18
