Finally broke down and bought a good dash cam. I've had a few close calls in the past week that would have turned into a "he said, she said" debacle if I hadn't stopped or moved out of the way in time.

I always park it the boonies or against a concrete curb, and park all the way against the curb

Yep me too, parked in BFE and still didn't help. When a curb is available I always back in where my passenger side tires are within a half inch or so and that way I have lots off room in the spot on the drivers side.

Totally agree. For some reason its harder for me to get in and out of the cavailer and shifting and putting my seatbelt on since I dislocated my shoulder. The pickemup seems to be easier to drive.

Atleast its just paint from their door and no dent or missing paint (I think) when I get up to where I can wash the truck again I'm going to tackle the door and see if I can get it to disappear.
