what happened???


Old guy in an 82 chev pickup pulled out in front of me, I was going about 35(speed limit) and he pulled out and I tried to miss his driver door and got his fuel tank....luckily it didnt catch fire, but it puked fuel all over the road. totally his fault so we'll see what ins. does for me. Hopefully they will total it and I'll get an SS or something.

Ouch! Good luck with the insurance. The dammage is to your front end, not his. Does not look good from where I am sitting. Maybe if you have a police report that says he is at fault.

thanks guys, It was totally his fault, as I hit him right behind the cab of his truck, on the bed. The police report says it was his fault too. and the cop was a pretty cool guy and he owned an 03 z71 so we b/sed for a little on our truck and stuff, he told me to tell the ins. co. that the guy must have ran the stop sign.
