PYT = Pretty young thing. I was picking out some Virginia peaches when this cute little Korean woman approached and asked if that was my truck out there in the lot practically all by itself (so I thought). She explained what happened and invited my to look at the damage. I thought, God give me solace and compassion and please let it not be bad. Well, it's not bad. No real structural damage but it will probably need to be stripped and repainted. There are a couple of spots of the Cactus Grey area that seem to be rubbed down to the metal. Hence the long scrape on her 2010 Escape. (Got to give her cred for driving a Ford). The cutie could have easily driven off without me knowing. In that location on the truck I may not have noticed for weeks.

Makes me glad to see there's still some decent people left out there and she came and found you and owned up to it. Luckily it's only cosmetic and can be fixed pretty easily.

I actually had genius that waited for me to come out the store to tell me I had fix his car after he backed into me… he said I wasn’t allowed to park there because he couldn’t see me. Oh well, he ended up paying 2700 bucks ?

I actually felt sorry the guy, his wife was nagging at him about how it was my fault the whole time. He could have driven off and I would never have noticed until later, it was just a small crease in bumper and bumper skin, scraped paint on the hitch on a 2002 Trailblazer but it f’Ed up his Chrysler pretty good too. The bumper skin and paint was most of cost… I’m curious if they’re still married..

Them being a young couple I probably would have told him no worries, have a nice day.. but hey it’s all in the approach… it actually was barely noticeable on my car so no biggie to me except, no he had to go there..

Crappy situation. Glad it’s not too bad. Funny that stories like this stand out as it seems fewer people “do the right thing”.
Now I know what an Escape looks like with Cactus Grey pin-striping.

When I get my tremor I’m really going to have to fight the urge to park a mile away from everyone else. Maybe I’ll just have to scuff up the paint a little off roading before some idiot door dings the hell out of it.

I was actually parked quite a way back from where she was backing out. She must have swung really wide.

Yeah, I FB stalked her.
Um, yeah you did. Some guys would have been so taken by her, they would have been like, “Don’t worry about it, I can fix that myself.”

Okay, that’s probably what I would have said. Then I likely would have stammered out some weird apology and offered to pay for the damage to her Escape. ?‍♂
