Hey!! I think I am about the same on this one... I was leaving for School
early one morning.. (7AM?) and this was just a month ago or so... Not
realising that my brother in laws T/A is really low... and he parked at the
end of the driveway, (big slope), I was waving to my dad, when the truck
came to a stop real fast... and my mouth just went on WIDE OPEN for like 2
mins... i got out... found that i need to get his bumper repainted... and
his front licence plate will always remember my tail pipe... (Thank god I
had the trailer hitch out!!)
He has an estimate for $250... you cant see any damage unless you like...
catch the light right.... but oh well.... we all do stupid crap! like runnin
into a new $30,000 car =) (3 months old when it happened)
Just so ya dont feel so bad...
