What did you do to your Ranger today? (Part Deux!)


Slammed it into the side of my moms brand new edge. :icon_thumby:

Went to help shovel out the driveway, no room to park on the street because of the snow mounds so I parked on the gravel side of the driveway (one side is paved, one side is gravel). Shoveled everything and went to move the truck back so I could at least attempt to shovel the gravel side and the truck immediately went full sideways instead of backwards. Wasn't going fast and I stopped but the gravel side is on a slant so the truck just sorta kept sliding down and right into the side of the edge.

Gonna be a fun insurance claim. No damage to the ranger but the edge has a nice big gouge in the passengers side rear door from the corner of my bumper sliding down it. Not a dent, a gouge. No way its fixable with anything less than a new door or door skin.

That door was actually already replaced once from someone hitting her in a parking lot. :rolleyes:

She's Not speaking to me. I can't afford to fix it out of pocket so im trying to make sure my insurance understands I was totally at fault and pays it without effecting her rates.
 
My first insurance claim since 1999, and that wasn't my fault, I've never had an "at fault accident" in my life... hopefully USAA has some heart and cuts me a break. I don't even have any tickets on my record in 20 some years of driving.

My dad called me and said calm down maybe their homeowners would cover it? I dunno how that works.

Stupid accident. But why are new cars so fragile!!!!

You know me by now, I have a joke for everything, but not in this case. I really feel for you. Send your mom a dozen roses, or bring them by from the Kroger, with a little note on how much you love her, and a little thing like this should not be worried about with all the troubles in the world, or something like that

You can joke. No one was hurt. It was a silly accident lol. Yea I'm upset, my mom's upset but at the end of the day its sheetmetal not people...

I'd blame it on the goat.
 
Unsuccessfully attempted to mount my Daylighters...
 
Needs more than that. Holes are just plain too small for the stud.
Unpossible.

That's for the car insurance company and the homeowner's insurance company to sort out between themselves. Horrendous weather where you are this week so I doubt they would give you a hard time. Stuff happens. Like my wife hitting two deer in three months with her minivan. Paint was barely dry on the new front end and it was on a flatbed back to the body shop.
