    First time being rear ended - Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec V hit me in the Taco Bell drive through. Left no damage as I had a hitch. Girl was drunk, gave me the finger when I got out of the truck and drove away. I have her grill.

    Mom drug her back bumper of her Sequioa on my front left fender. A few scratches, nothing major.

    Two weeks ago best friend backed his early '90s Sentra into my truck. I got some red paint on the bottom of my front bumper, his bumper got pretty messed up. His cars a POS so we laughed it off.

    I've backed into a tree and have a tiny, barely noticable dent in my rear bumper.

    No real damage though, even the stuff I mentioned barely left scratches. Trucks a damn tank.

    I got my first scratch dent on Tuesday :-\

    Was loading a sheet of plexiglass in the bed and the wind took over... got awkward and it hit behind my fender. Put a minor dent and a 1 foot long scratch. Thank God I have a silver Taco. It isn't too noticeable, but it pisses me off regardless. It was an errand for work. I think the entire 300 ft radius heard of yell "MOTHER FUCK"

    I sorta jackknifed the jet ski trailer into my bumper but it was only the bracket holding the safety chains on that smashed into the bumper a little. The hurculiner didn't even chip off.

    Its not so bad, although you can tell from some angles.

    Apparently one of the previous owners was going through a divorce and she tried running over her husband with the Taco. She tried opening the door on him or something while he was running and she hit a pole, or similar. Who ever tried to fix it did a horrible job. Its just something cosmetic so whatever. I got a good deal on a great truck and in a couple of months ill be repainting and redoing the whole body.

    took a big rock to the a-pillar in the first week. Scared the crap out of me. It is just a small dent that I think now adds character to my truck. That rock would have gone right though the window.

    My Taco was damage free until this afternoon. Stopped in at my local Home Depot to pick up some supplies, parked out in the open and some cheese dick decides they would park next to me in the north 40 and dinged my truck with their door.

    Luckily it just hit the plastic on the fender flare but it hit it hard enough to actually peel the paint on the plastic...

    Rat bastards!!

    Anyone got an tricks to fix it besides use an exacto blade to remove the peeled up plastic/paint and then use touch up paint to fill in?

    I had my truck for a month and the neghibor's idiot daughter backed into the driver's door. Smashed in the bottom of the door and rocker. She left it for me to figure out. No call, no note. I took pics of her car and my car, went to cops, cited her. I hounded her and her parents to pony up for the repairs for two days before I reported it. She ignored all of my calls. Hope it put her insurance through the roof. Insurance fixed my truck after $500 deductable:(
    I got another ding last week. Dented the right rear bumper, scratched the brake light, dented the right rear fender. It either happened at work or wallmart. No note again.
    Some people are real assholes when no one is looking!

    No damage I did, yet...

    Front bumper is about 1 inch off center. Passenger side fender is dented in the front under the marker light. Driver side bed side on the very back is bent. Looks like somebody backed into it going really slow. It's not really noticeable unless you know what the bedside is supposed to look like though. A real good dent in the tailgate rail. Another good one one the passenger side wheel well. Finally, the rear bumper is dented right in the middle. The 2" receiver on the back sticks out from the bumper by about a 1/4 inch. I think that stopped whatever it was from damaging the truck a lot more. A laundry list of other scratches and dings to numerous to mention.

    All in all, I'd say my truck has been well used.:)
