Ahhh damnit! So I get out, it's this older couple in a suburban, and the guy is already telling me he's sorry, was watching traffic and not the light. I check out the damage and I lucked out... My hitch saved me. Left it on there cause I've been helping people out here on saturdays with my trailer for Isabel clean-up. So anyway, he has a very nice dent in his front bumper, no damage to my truck that I can tell, hitch took all of the hit.. He was probably only going about 5-10mph or so when he hit me. Just enough to jerk me forward a little bit. Oh well, guess it gave me a good excuse for being late :-) Oh yeah, no injuries, guy was really nice about it.

Glad to hear that you and the truck are okay. Kinda makes me want to
leave my hitch on as well :-)
