Got to get it demagnetized

I am not big into complaining but I am tired of getting my truck run into by dummies. Took it to Annual Training in August with my Reseve Unit and one of our half wit van drivers ran into it trying to park a Ford F350 van and did $1500 dollars worth of damage to it. Got it out of the body shop less than 2 weeks ago and going to dinner with the wife last night this dumbass ran into the back of us while we were stopped at a red light. I mean if you run into the back of a Dark Copper F150 sitting at a red light you are a dumbass or blind or both. He wanted to write a check for my trailer hitch cover. I said no and we called the police. Will probably need a new bumper, bumper cladding and back up sensors. I hope his insurance goes through the roof. Guess I have to get the truck demagnetized as it is pretty obvious it attracts dumbasses. Sorry to vent but I am fed up with this. The good thing is my body shop will probably give me a Christmas ham.

Sorry to hear about all that. I have so far escaped unscathed. However, since upgrading to this very large white truck, people have been cutting into the lane I occupy, turning left in front of me when I have the straight-through right-of-way, on and on. I just can't figure it. My last vehicle (the Exploder) had front end damage and no one ever came near me. Guess they figure if I'd smashed someone before, I'd surely do it again!

Simple solution: I leave a large pintle hitch in the reciever.
