i was at Quiznos with the fiance on lunch when a woman come in and asked who drove a red Ford Ranger...my head sunk, i just knew somehitng was wrong. She said "someone just hit it!" i jumped up and walked outside calmly (actually nervous as hell; i just knew that my truck was fudged.) a little ol' lady like 85 years old got out of her car and walked towards my truck. i was like dang it, why does it have to be an elderly lady.... but i looked at truck and all that it did was scuff the corner of my back bumper. i took my hand and wiped across it and most of her paint come off. im left with just a small scuff mark and it made a little cut into my plastic bumper cover. thats it...THANK GOODNESS. i looked at her car and her taillight was broken. she looked so worried poor thing. i just told her it was fine and we need not worry about anything..but to be careful next time. now if it had been a body panel, i would have asked for it to be turned in on insurance. but everything is fine, im just a little agrevated bc now there is a scuff mark there, but its fine, glad it wasnt worse and that shes ok.

By the thread title, I thought it was going to be bad. I'm glad it was minor. The only way to keep a vehicle perfect is to park it in the garage and never drive it, so a few bumps and bruises are inevitable. But it always sucks when it's someone elses fault when you get a ding.

I'm glad to hear you were nice to the little old lady about it. I have a soft spot for old folks, I guess because we're all going to be wearing those shoes one day.

Really cool of you to handle it the way you did.


2 thumbs up!!

Way to go! That's the kind of spirit we all need.

I love old people. After all I may be one one day.

Although the aged people do may me nervous, they either drive too slow or don't pay attention to their surroundings.
