    She was looking at her bumper and said "oh your truck is probably fine" without even looking at it and i said "no it's not fine". Then she said "I just bought this car and it even has a backup camera. I can't believe i hit you." SMFH

    Did you tell her that a reverse cam doesn’t help if you are looking straight ahead?

    That sucks. At least she has insurance. Sometimes bad things happen to good people.

    OP, try to pop it out from the inside out by removing the plastic cover, apply some heat to the metal before doing it. It might help tremendously, trust me!

    Make sure you use a sledgehammer for a satisfying “pop” sound too.

    It’s obvious that she is a Beaver fan. :DI suggest you fix the license plate frame when you fix the tailgate :thumbsup:

    Actually, that looks very easy to buff out. Looks like paint transfer or marring of the clear coat. The dent could probably be easily popped out too.

    You can't expect people who don't even pump their own gas to know how to drive.

    Mine got rear-ended at 1 month. Then again almost a year to the day, next street over. Both perpetrators had the same insurance.. so I called the same body shop and said remember me? Let’s do the exact same repair again! Although mine was bumper and trailer hitch. They both went under me...

    Sorry OP, this really sucks. It seems like you can’t have anything really nice anymore without some asshat doing their best to either steal it
    Or F*&k it up for you.

    Of course it's just general stupidity lack of caring, awareness, whatever. Totally the norm lately. But can't pass on a change to rag on Oregonians for not pumping their own gas. I didn't even know that until I went there last summer, got out to pump my gas and someone about tackled me.

    That video is hilarious. How can you not know you bought an electric car. Bet it was stolen.

    Or it belongs to her parents. You don't go out of your way to buy a Tesla to do something like this.

    Do yourself a favor and add 3000 to your estimate for repairs. Why? That’s how much value you lose when car fax reports your truck was in an accident. It just happened to us trading in a Camry that was hit in a parking lot with door skin damage.
