Parking lot rage?

Parking cow syndrome.

 

It would have been great if I could have buffed it out.
Unfortunately the scratch is through the clear coat and deep
into the base color.

 

People = SHIT

 

Agreed.
Then again sooner or later, that jackass will get his.

 

Meh, spray some clear over it so it doesn't rust.
Now you don't have to worry about putting the first scratch on it anymore. It's truly liberating

 

This exactly. I have mine at $250 deductible since I got my my TRD pro. Not taking any chances. Lol

 

Don’t worry, Karma will paying the asshole a visit. It might be tomorrow, next week, or within the 30 years but Karma always wins

You have heard the saying that “you don’t own a nice car, a nice car owns you”. It’s true because you are always keeping it clean, worrying over paint chips, parking carefully, etc. Ask any exotic car owner. It’s usually one of the reasons why they sell the vehicle within a year or two.

 

Nice sentiment. I know you are being supportive. Haven't seen this karma thing in my lifetime. The OP doesn't know the asshole so he will never see this karma thingamahjig.

I do know that no matter how much I try to stay out of trouble, trouble always finds you. Now, that I have seen many times.

 

I think I would have to introduce my Benchmade to his tire.

 

Benchmade is too nice for that, just grab an old kitchen knife

 

Benchmades are perfect for that. Here's mine

 

You don't want to stoop to their level and cause damage. However, I always carry a valve core remover. Remove core, all air escapes, and then you decide if you leave them the cores or let them buy new ones.

 

I would find a good detailing shop. I had a really nasty one on my driver door. The dealership where I bought my truck has a great detailing shop. They did an amazing job of fixing it. It's barely visible and they didn't even charge me for fixing it.

 

Could have been some punk kid. Seems like that is the thing to do today. They even brag about it in school and they specifically look for nice cars. Sorry that happened to your truck.

 

One of the reasons I have a dash cam that records even when parked.

 

Yourbin Everett. Im in Tacoma and I have a paint guy that is great and it won't be no 1200 maybe 500 or 600

 

You can't have anything nice in this world anymore.

 

You can, it just has to be under lock and key, behind a double layer of bullet proof glass, (ya gotta be able to at least look at it). In a titanium box.

 

I have one like that on my hood but 3x as long. Happened a cpl years ago, not sure how. Was pissed off at the time but I've just ignored it until now

 

Try and buff it out... a good .paint repair is going to need to blend the paint on the door and front fender, causing both to then be clear coated as well. Also means the Tacoma badge gets replaced as well as the black sticker on the door.

I’d try and live with it if you can... but still sucks.
