Oh no he didn't!!!

[Flexin]

People are testing my damn patience today. One punk even pulled a gun (turned out to be a bb gun) and two big ass bottles of mace on me and my brother.

Then the guy in the parking lot that beeped his horn to many times and decided to call me an asshole. I guess he didn't know the day I was having. But he did quickly learn that at that point in my day calling me asshole is about 3 feet pass the line.

So who else had a fun day?

I had a teeanger spin out her SUV and crash into the side of my truck on my way to work this morning. :shrug:

Damn. You didn't get hurt did you?

James

Yeah...are you ok?

[JoshuaTree]

I'm fine - or at least I don't (yet) have any issues. As with these 'soft' hits, you know more in 24-48 hours. I'm truly pissed that a pristine truck is now not so due to the bad/poor choices made by an immature driver and her parents.

Will they write off your now not so pristine truck so you can get another one or do you have to now hope that someone can do a good job with body work?

OMG Josh, I'm so glad you're alright. I have a contact if you need it...

They're not getting that choice to "write off" my truck at 'book value'. Because the fault (100%) is their insured, they WILL restore my truck to pre-accident condition, replace it with an equivalent history & mileage vehicle, or buy me a new one.

So far the adjuster is cooperating. I'll know more once the estimate is done....

Fortunately, when I bought the truck, I had it 'appraised' as part of my insurance for getting 'stated value' coverage. Many fellow tradesmen have seen the truck and marveled at its condition, especially with the mileage.

If State Farm makes my life difficult, it'll ultimately cost them.

As for finding a good body shop, I'm asking around Austin to see if anyone has recent experience with any local shop.

OMG Josh, I'm so glad you're alright. I have a contact if you need it...

I'll know more once the appraisal is done, and I've let enough time pass that I'm certain that I have not had any injury... Thanks! :)

I went to the Medical Hobby Shop, got tested for strep and mono, can't swallow anything, and now can't sleep. It's been an ok one I guess.

Glad things weren't worse.
I kinda felt the same after my truck got hit a year or two back. I had made it so long without any damage, it was just a real bummer.
Hopefully it won't ruin your ongoing vehicular luck, it seems like that first incident opened the door for a few more bad things.

I have a solution for that- Scotch. ;)

That definitely sucks. I had a cabbie drive into the side of my last truck just 3 weeks after I bought it, so I know what sort of sick feeling it is.

Get a couple of muscle relaxants into you and you'll be less likely to stiffen up overnight.

*EDIT* Oops, it already is overnight. Hope that you didn't end up feeling worse.
