Default Ever been hit?

Soo last night i was parked in the front of my house and my neighbor was drunk and backed his honda mini van into the front of my truck. Funny thing is nothing happen to my truck but his rear end was torn to pieces. It just proves how tough ford is!! tell any stories you have of how ford is.

Last year I was leaving the my schools parking lot when this kid in a rice burner forgot his car was stick and let off the clutch. He rear ended me and destroyed his headlights and a couple hundred dollar carbon fiber hood. My truck was okay, and I drive away like nothing happened after having a few choice words with him.

A couple years ago when i had my 94 flare side some lady decided to floor it when we were at a stand still and destroyed the front of her escort. It had to be towed it was so bad and the rear end of the good ol f150 didnt even have a scuff.

Some idiot came into my lane and hit the front passenger side of my truck, funny thing is all he did was break my turn signal but the tube part of my bumper had fun with his mirror, and the entire side of his car. My damage was $100, his was $3,000 LOL

Thankfully no one has hit my F-150, but I also have a '95 Chevy 1500 for a DD. I got rear ended twice with that. I'm not dissing the Ford, but the rear bumper on the Chevy is a REAL bumper. It's at least twice as thick as the F-150, which might be part of the W/T package.

First time I got hit by my buddy with a Sport Trac. Didn't amount to any damage, I had a steel bumper and his plastic front bumper just popped back out. I assume it cracked some of the plastic behind it.

Second time I got hit, it was by a kid I went to school with driving a baretta. I was stopped and have no idea how fast he was going. It almost pushed me in the car in front of me, luckily I had my foot on the brake pretty good. I pulled off the road and looked in the mirror. His car was totaled. Pushed the whole front end into the engine. Got the hood, both fenders, radiator, and everything up front. Steam was billowing, fluids were leaking, the typical stuff. I didn't even want to look at my truck. I walk around the corner of the bed and I literally got 2 scratches on the bumper. The kid asked if I wanted to exchange information. I told him no since I didn't have any damage. I asked him if he needed a ride home, shook his hand, and drove away. I still talk to him on occasion, we generally bring that story up. I wish I had a good camera phone back them. I'll have to see if he has a picture.
