Hmmm... so maybe driving a behemoth of an SUV isn't such a bad idea. Yes, kiddies, it is true... the honeymoon is over.

Some guy rear-ended me this morning on my way to work. The back bumper of my Durango is terribly scritched up and his car is completely demolished. Nyah nyah... that's what you get for having bad brakes. I actually feel quite sorry for the guy. I mean, the accident was his fault and all, but for such a minor fender-bender, he got the big, hairy shaft. Apparently when he hit his brakes, the front of his car dove downward and slid right in under my truck. It scratched up the rear bumper, and bent my tag and the end of my exhaust pipe. His entire front body pieces will all have to be replaced, along with any miscellanious engine parts that he may have crushed in the process. He actually had to bend the hood back down (it folded in half up against his windsheild) in order to move the car.

Thankfully, neither of us were hurt and I didn't have anyone in the car with me (oh, you know, like my kids.... whew...).

So, yay. Next we get to see when I'll be violently shoved into a rental car in order for the body shop to fix the damages.

Enterprise better not give me a fucking Toyota Echo, like they did last time I was unfortunate enough to rent from them. I'd rather rot than drive an Echo.
