Ooooh.. blepharoplasty.

*fun fact, blepharoplasty is the most common '-plasty' done yearly.

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. ?‍♂
Her pretty face a polite demeanor sure helped me keep my cool for sure.

Damn she is cute. I stalked her too and found a video of her driving.

The good thing about trucks is they hold up to this crap, especially if lifted. My Tacoma, my Pathfinder and my Prius all got smashed into by women drivers (no survivors) when I commuted the GSP in NJ. Both trucks had minor damage and the Prius was totaled.

The ironic thing is, my wife has an appointment to get her car fixed after her friend ran into it.

This is one of the many reasons I like the current 5g Ranger over the 6g.
Metal bumpers. The plastic cover of a bumper on the 6g has no place on a truck.

Nice she waited.
There are a lot of good people out there.
It's just the approach people take that will turn off folks.
Just remember, no one woke up in the morning to say " f***K, I think today I'll hit some random
car"
Having said that, if it's some meth head.... gloves off...

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.

Depending on the state you live in, from past posts regarding damage, it's possible your insurance adjuster will total it ?

Shit I hope not! Got the truck darn near the way I want it. I don't want to start over. And who knows how long a replacement would take.

That is the ROW Ranger 6G. Most likely, when the 6G announced in North America it will have metal bumpers just as the NA 5G one does now. The ROW Ranger 5G had a similar plastic fascia as you see on the 6G.

This is another reason I added a dash cam back last spring. It's good insurance in case someone hits and runs and also if there's ever a "he said she said" moment. Mine has audio too so it'll record the whole conversation so there's no changing the story later on. Plus it can come in handy for someone else if you capture something on it. Glad it worked out (so far) well for you.

No concept of where the front of her car was. She could have started turning a football field away. ??

Contrary to popular belief, there are still decent humans out there.
The real question is, would you have gone ballistic if it wasn't a PYT, but a burly, red headed man in a muscle shirt as hairy as a wooly mammoth?
