Well I Got Run Into

[Formula Indy]

Today I was driving around a roundabout and a lady in a Tacoma didn't see me and pulled right into me. Truck is only 2 months old and has already had its hood painted prior to delivery. Looks like damage to the bumper, qtr panel, wheel, alignment, door, and side badge. Totally Bummed.

Yep, just like a steel one!
The plastic ones shatter.

Empty beer cans cause a lot of crumpled fenders.

Dang that a shame..how in the world did she not see you?! Not like these trucks can fit in the 2-3 inch gap of the A pillar lol

And what's wrong with that? It crumpled up to absorb the impact so that you can easily replace it afterwards.

Sorry to hear that.

The Tacoma had to yield to @Formula Indy who was already in the roundabout. It's 100% her fault.
