Rear-ended
For some silly reason I decided to finally start taking the freeway home. It's not more than 10 miles or so. Of course it was bumper-to-bumper stop and go. Some doofus came from about 5 car lengths back to run his volvo into my bumper - fortunately he made SOME attempt to slow down. Truck is mostly ok, but the bumper and tailgate will have to be replaced. Who knows what else could be wrong...

Thanks, and yes I am fine. We waited about an hour and then he decided to take the offer from one of the vultures and fly off into the sunset. Everything was pretty calm until I let the guy know that I had called the police. I was quickly back in the truck to cool off, call the police to let them know I was leaving, etc.

also a brush guard really helps to protect you when you hit somebody in the rear

and if you put a hitch in....build a receiver that has an 8" spike sticking out of it. that way it goes through their radiator....oops
