Man, I waxed my truck. It was all shiny, bright red. Took it to the grocery store and it was turning heads. Got home wife asked to borrow it. I hesitated but I give her the keys and watch my baby go, not the wife my truck. Dude!!! Duuddee..........she comes home with the whole passenger side of the bed dented an and scraped from end to end!! She took out the step and all! I almost passed out!!! She made a right by a pole and didn't make it wide enough. I always told her wiideee turns!! So now I have a 1000 deductable, paint will never match factory and truck depreciates big time when it has a carfax incident!!! I know it is just a vehicle, but dam it was painful!!!! Oh well.............

Let it go. It's just a truck. I'm sure she feels like crap over it.

Get it fixed. It can be fixed right. If you want a museum piece, buy a museum.

That said, sorry for your luck...

And next time you want something like a big screen TV and she balks... just mention the truck and the deductible. Win-win.

dude.. it's only sheet metal. doubt you'll take that much of a hit if any later.

& my paint work looks terrific. I dare anyone to tell mine has been fixed because the color doesn't match or something.

I've seen your multi-colored truck... dude... who did the paint? The high school shop class in the parking lot?






JUST KIDDING

so much for your safe value generating investment....oh wait it's a truck.

It's a PITA but in the end it's a toy, have fun and move on.
