Post Notice: Please hit this truck!

Okay, I'm wondering if anyone else's truck has a hit me sign on it?

- Less than 5,000 miles on the truck and some stupid a$$ loses control of their car, jumps off of a 15" embankment and creams the side of the truck!

- Forgot to secure the trailer to the hitch ball while loading an old chevy truck on a car hauler - wham! - new tailgate.

- Tonight, sitting in a parking garage when the idiot behind me slips his foot off of the brake - wham! - new bumper.

When will it end?

Unhappy

It will end when your truck is 10yrs old and you don't care how many scratches dings and dents it has.
Sorry but it's the truth.

Just be glad you're in a truck.
Monday, my brother got hit head on. He's in his 3/4ton Chevy and a big buick just plows into him. My brother's truck is totaled but he walks away. The buick...they had to use the jaws to extracate the people out and take them to the hospital. My brother's only words was to ask the police if the driver was insured (buick was at fault). He's now looking for another truck, even looked at F250's!!! Might yet be able to convert him

Ok, now I'm a pretty smart guy (I'm a Ford guy, just like the rest of y'all) so I'm not gonna get shot, I'd never put myself in that position.

Cool

With my truck it's stone chips on the windsheild. Got the first about a week from new. Had it fixed, it was small thanks buda, and they did it with that suction kit thing. Next one abt 2 mons later, too big to "suction" - latest abt a week ago. ditto.
Im about due for a new glass. Truck is 10 months old !!!!. Wish I could afford my FAV MODS. 2 50MM guns in headlight pods !!!

I hate that stupid sign....I have almost been hit so many times, that I lost count once I got both of my shoes off. The only time that my truck has been hit, was when my brothers friend got to close the front end with his 4 wheeler, and scratched the bumper starting on the left and stops in the center, after breaking the license plate holder.
