Like what Joel says, its never good to have any kind of accident for both parties, but the pics of her Mustang and the scratch on your SMB is priceless.

Good luck and hope all works out for both parties.

No doubt that bumper is great but my bet is the tire also took a hard hit. I'd get a frame shop to check out that front axle and suspension.

Good luck with that! I had those words spoke to me about 2 months ago. Hope nothing happened to the van. That is the best way it could end.

billwilson · 12-29-2009, 09:05 PM

the rig is intact
taking rig to Full Tilt Off Road
reccomended by Deaver
i am pretty sure USAA will cover the damage
as for the rentacar, i aint signing nothing other than for the gas
in fact, i may not even use it as i have a grand cherokee as a DD

I did the same with the rent a car. Thier full size is not my idea of full size. It made me nervous (shite happens, it did to the van) so I parked it in the front yard. If there happens to be a slightly damaged bumper for sale, let me know.

billwilson · 12-29-2009, 10:48 PM

only want whats right
however, Dave already offered to sell me a new bump

it should make it to Full Tilt tomarrow for a look see
