Look at that damage... any idea how much it will cost? ?

[Secousse]

I'm away from home and lent my truck to a person I trust... who obviously doesn't know how to effing drive...
Allegedly they "backed into the mountain that appeared further than it really was" while going hiking.

I've gone off-road plenty times and nothing ever happened. Over a year old and my truck still looked brand new till now.
My poor Tremor ?

Any idea how much it will cost?
What are my options?

EDIT: and thank you all for the much needed comic relief...

The taillight is a big ticket item for sure.

Someone not long ago had a link here for a taillight with BLISS for just over $800.

Here it is and it's $734.

Did he not hear the parking sensor alarm? Mine goes off if there is a butterfly in my path when I back up, and it certainly would have gone off if the terrain sloped up, like a mountain.

Easy now. Mountains can move pretty Damn fast!

Yeah, it looked a lot further away than it actually was.

And did you see the fenders? It hurts every time I look at the picture...

 

[NotBudule]

I mean I know " objects in mirror are closer than they appear " , but , you backed my truck into a mountain ?

 

[JasonTremor]

If paint not broken, could get good pdr person to fix that. Guess about $500 on pdr work.

The road was narrow apparently, and there was a need to turn around. Go figure...

 

[Secousse]

PDR will help those fenders.
but there isnt enough crazy glue in the tube to fix the taillight.

Forgive my ignorance: what does PDR stand for?
Yeah, taillight looks like a goner...

 

[Bob902]

If it was me, I would be so mad at myself for damaging your truck. I would take the bill immediately.
