Truck got a little dinger

Well, leaving my house last night, a kid I know that I don't really like decided he was going to play bumper cars with my truck. He hit my rear rim at about 30mph, driving like a TOTAL idiot. I just about mutilated the kid when I got outa my truck. Damage isn't that bad, just really PISSES me off! He scraped some chrome off my rim, and took some fiberglass off the panel. All the impact went into the rim, and it looks to me as if either the rim is bent, or the axle is bent. Hopefully not, but ill find out when I take it to the shop to get it checked out...

PICs.





Poor Truck...



Just wanted to vent...

I just about beat the living hell outa the kid, until my friend riding in my truck stopped me, and reminded me that the cops were going to come, and that would just make things worse.

He was driving a Mistu Laner POS! The entire front of passenger side of his car is smashed in... Hes 17, and was driving like a total idiot.

I was in the street waiting for my friend to pull out of the driveway. This kid went flying up my driveway, through the grass, and slammed right into my truck... Better yet, this happened right in front of my house!





AHHHHH! I didn't think anything could ruin my spring break...

Dude...........If he WAS going 30, you'd have no bed, and your axle would resemble a pretzel.....................Maybe 15 or 20, but not 30mph.

At any rate.............sucks to hear about it. Does he at least have insurance, etc, or are the cops making it difficult because it took place on your property???

BTW, Do you live out in Southwest Ranches?? I can't believe in the 18 mos. I owned my L, in the 3000 times I went to Razor's Edge, and the other 1500 times I hung out at Tower Shops, you and I never met........

Anyways, good luck with everything.................JC

Mike,
That Sucks, especially if the idiot was driving like an
A-Hole, and this could have been totally un-avoided.

If thats the case
I hope you ****ed him up real good,

Damn if that happened to my truck I would have thrown his head through his window and then smacked him. I have no tolerance for people who can't drive and endanger L's

He got me right at the perfect angle. His lancer is lowered, and the corner of the car fit perfectly into my wheel well. Im just afraid to post picture from further away of the vehicle... I don't like how it looks. ALL the impact was right into the wheel itself.

On another note... I don't know how we've never met up either... we all need to meet up one day..
