Rear Ended...Again

As the subject reads, I just go rear ended. I had the truck a week after I was rear ended...

Been driving 20+ years never crashed into. Do people just hit pickups more? This is my first and had it only 6 months with 2 rear ends crashes.

First hit totaled the other Mini-van. This hit did a lot more damage to my taco, but dont think this much new car (that hit me) got totaled.

 

Man, that's just some bad luck. I don't think people hit pickups more than any other vehicle or anything. People just really fucking suck at driving, and that was even before cell phones became a thing. Now that everyone has a cell phone, this type of thing is even more common. There's really nothing you can do either to prevent a rear ended collision, other than never drive (which isn't really an option).

Do you live in a big city?

 

Just get rid of it, I had a car that was an accident magnet as well

 

Suburbs of Ny so...

Have to say the truck did well. First time "almost" didn't look damaged but the inside of the bumper and brkts was bent. This time however MUCH more out of wack and plastic chrome exploded, and dent to the bed sheet metal =(.. Dropping it off at the shop again for inspection and repair. It takes a hit or two well!

 

@Tacoma816 you should let this guy borrow your truck for a few days, might help you out.

Edit: sorry op. Pics of damage?

 

And go back to Jeep!



ya The Pentistar is garbage... so cant do that.

 

Lol that would be nice, Last rental was the Gladiator. Honestly hated it. Breaks awesome, seat awesome, Electrics awsome, everything else hated. And worthless bed. Its really Really narrow.

 

Sorry......bad juju with that truck, ouch.

 

it will eventually be totaled. after my 4th accident on my last car (all non fault) they totaled it.

 

Sorry to hear. That really sucks. People are just getting dumber and more distracted when it comes to driving. Hope you are okay.

 

Pics?

 

The only way to deter distracted driving is to give points for texting. It’s funny how hitting people in their wallet changes behavior.

 

its hard to prove

 

no clue how to post pics =/. Been a lurker since I bought the truck, never posted.

 

I owned a cursed vehicle too. 3 wrecks, none of which were my fault, all within 6 months. Nothing since, thankfully. Same situation as you, never wrecked a vehicle before, at least not on the road. It happens I guess, somehow. Hopefully their insurance will fix you up.

 

A nice shiny steel bumper next time

 

Wait Think i got it!

 

Solution to your problem,get 1/4 inch steel bumper and f*** everybody else. No more damage, see problem solved

 

Pic maybe?
