What a jerk!

I just don't understand why. It was hit in August by hail, had that fixed. I was upset but you can't control mother nature. I've been in tears all morning as its just such a mean thing to do. My bf is looking for a new vehicle and stopped this morning to talk to the guy I bought the car from. He said one of the guys in his body shop would probably repair it on the side for a case of beer.

I just have to call. You know, I'm sure if I'd caught whoever did this, I would likely have gone after them as well.

You just don't mess with a persons ride, It's so not cool.
I run a bar and have had so much damage done to my vehicles. It's unbelievable how ignorant people can be. I did catch up with one of them and it wasn't pretty... FOR HIM..... Although in hindsight probably not the wisest thing I've done either.
My vehicles were far from being a new car, so i feel your frustration.

Last summer someone backed into my jeep with a big dualie and took off. Crushed it too looked like they hit it hard. The whole drivers side was caved almost looked like I got t-boned luckily for me there was a witness who got the trucks make but no plate. Living in a small town its not hard to track down the car though. $4800 later my jeep is as good as new and that persons insurance is good and pricey. as well as a hit and run and leaving the scene of an accident charge. Just remember, karma is a 'b' they'll get what's coming to them in the end.

Lucky you had a witness!! Someone hit my parked car once but left a note.

Esquire, doesn't matter what kinda vehicle or where it's parked, still not acceptable. Bet it felt good to lay some beats on the guy, but ya, probably not the best thing to do.

Here's a pic of my ride, out on my parents acreage this summer.



And keyed

Thanks Greg! To top it off, we went out today, I tripped going out my front door and did a flying leap off my front steps, face planting on my front lawn. little scratched up myself and what does my family do? Laugh...ugh

I'm thankful that it's a long weekend and for an awesome dinner with the inlaws!

Not liking the outlet threads on my new pumps! Will not allow me to thread on a standard 1 1/4" PVC coupling like the inlet will.

Just about had a tank meltdown on the 180 tonight somehow my heater on the controller was set to on instead of auto i noticed my moonlights where off which made me investigate. Temp was at 84.5 degrees and climbing.

Will be keeping an eye on that now. Bringing yep down with an ice pack
