Howdy friends,

Didn't take me long to mess up this new truck. Took less then a week. This afternoon I swang too wide at a gas station and clipped a newspaper machine. To make things worse I swurved in panic and slammed into a shopping cart which surged into a parked car about 50 feet away. They are making me cover the cost of the machine, the damages to the car, and the damned shopping cart! The shopping cart was quote "totaled", and the machine is busted. The car is fine but hell body damage repair will make it cost three arms and a leg. My trucks head light don't work and I am not exactly ate up with cash. Cap this off with a ticket for "reckless driving" and scaring the people who were outside talking, and it really made for a day! My truck will be fine, unlike the freaking totalled shopping cart which was 250 dollars!!!! 250 dollars for a FREAKING F-wording shopping cart!! Sorry trying to keep it clean but I'm peed off!!! And to think I was gonna break bad and get camo seat covers this paycheck... that now!

sorry to hear man. **** happens though. a hug tree branch broke off in a storm last week and landed on my hood and fender. scratched it to hell and dented the fender. just gotta take it sometimes i guess.

 

Take it? Hell they are robbing me blind. 250 dollars for a danged shopping cart? Seriously? I don't have room fulls of cash to tap into everytime I smash a shopping cart. That is rediculous, see if I ever shop at another Quickie Mart!

you damaged there property because you cant drive and they are ripping you off? sorry but that sounds a bit backwards if you ask me. sorry about your bad luck though, never feels good to damage your truck.

 

Can't drive?? Can't drive? Friend I'll have you know I am an excellent driver. I took my son's go-kart to second place in the scooter cart 400( really challenging course! ) and it was missing a ball bearing in the front axle. 2nd of 83! The 1st place winner is no a semi professional. But yeah thats go-karts but I have never got a ticket for anything but speeding untill now, and even then it wasn't because I was out of control. And I wouldnt have hit that danged machine had I not been talking to Pete, then the crash scared the hell out of me causing me to hit that "precious" shopping cart crashing into the car. Big deal could happen to any of us, even you! But it dosent mean I "can't drive"

so because you can drive a go cart that means you can drive a truck? hell i drove go carts when i was 8 years old without crashing into stuff. it sure did sound like you were out of control to me. just saying.

 

That machine that you hit while you were talking to Pete could have very well been a person. Take your lumps and pay the damn bill and count yourself lucky.

 

Friend I'll have you know my record is spotless with nothing but speeding with the exception of that time I passed that school bus with the sign out but nobody can prove that and the bus driver dosen't like my family so he called my tag in and I took the fall for it. Point being, I am an excellent driver and will always be one and one crash here means nothing to determine if I drive good or not. And I don't give a poo who agrees with you, making assumptions on how good a driver someone is based on a crash is not right.

If it makes you feel any better, in the scooter kart 400, I avoided a crash down the straight away to pull into the top 20 and my driving skills...GOOD driving skills allowed me to hop 18 spots to the second place finish over my son's best friend whose big into it! I'm a good driver, and thats that!

Every time you smash a shopping cart? So you do this kind of thing often? lol
