ORIGINAL: turbot_bird

A week after I got my truck I was at school and a guy in a focus pulled in the spot next to me. I was sitting in the truck waiting for my next class when he opened his door and slammed it into my passenger front door then stood there and looked at me. I dont know how..... but somehow when I got out of my next class there was a scratch from hood to hatch on his passenger side...........
Damn man. What if it was truely an accident, and he was just eyeing you to see if you noticed? I would have just jumped out of my truck right then and got his insurance information. Done deal. Arent you a bit paranoid now when you park in that parking lot? Thinking that kid may know why his hood got scratched and will return the favor?

Well I'm taking it in thursday to get it repaired. I can't drive a new vehicle with some kind of damage on it :-P.

Where is a good place to buy tires. I dont want to spend too much on them. I was looking into the BF goodrich all terrain ones.

They're not as good as the BFG's but if you're looking to save money the All Country Radial LXT's are pretty good and they're cheap. My parents have been putting them on the company trucks lately and the guys say they go great in the snow.

That sucks, tint is no excuse for bad driving! LoL I've made it back and forth on my 100 mile a day to trips I used to make to my old workplace without a driver's side mirror for months and I never backed into any mailboxes or hit anything! Mad skillz! Jk... anyways its like the sign says "stuff" happens.
