    Hi my name is Bill (bilbord99)
    I purchased a 2011 V6 double cab/tow package on Black Friday. As the wife backs up she doesn't realize the new addition parked just to the right of her slot. Inside, hear the sound of metal bending. I come out to the garage as she pulls forward. She says; "Crap I just hit your new truck!", I say; Consider it a christening!". Rear drivers side door panel creased = $1,388.60 and yes I have collision insurance.

    Cheers!:)
