Crap Dents
well a beautiful day here in Northern Indiana today, hi 40"s and sunny. Debating on driving my car into work or just leave it in the Garage. Wife asks me to move car so she can get at some funiture that was put in there to make move for the Christmas tree and now it is down. So I decide to drive my car in if I got to move it. A big Gravel truck passes me going the other way and bang a rock goes across my hood. 2 deep dents all the way to bare metal. Crap . Called the Insurance co. It's going to cost me $100 for my deductable. Going to the Dealer in the morning for the estimate.
But the funny thing is I'm not mad. I figure things happen and I want to drive my car and not just store it away. It will get fixed and I'll keep driving it.

He's going 60mph one way and I'm going 60mph the other. By the time I stop and see the damage and turn away, there are 3 intersections with major hiways going both north and south and then another going east and west. no I didn't even try, the police would just say Call your insurance they will fix.

Ugh, I feel your pain. My wife and I took a 250 mile road trip to her parents over the holiday. When I go to show off the Mustang to her dad wouldn't you know it but there are two fresh rock chips on the hood. Luckly they only got down to the base coat. Funny thing is we never heard them hit. But, I guess it's easy to miss when you are going 70 in a down pour.
BTW, does anyone else have white as their basecoat?

The GM Locomotive is what I drive at work for my job at the Steel Mill. It's a switching engine with a 1000 hp diesel powering a Electrical generator and has a final drive like 23.50 to 1. I'll see if I still have some pictures on my laptop, if not I got them at home.
Talk to my Insurance co and they said that this claim would not hurt my standing with them.
