RE: Just got lots of Chips and dings on my car, from a truck carryin too much rocks
Nothing pisses me off more then that crap, other than idiots who parkednext to me when Im parked in BFE.....................Interstate 20 is a major commercial hwy in the state of Texas and it goes right between the town I live so I know first hand how dumb*** trucks dont protect or overload or are not DOT compliant!!! They suck and cost drivers lots of money in damages under $1,000!!! I will say this...........I am the first to get DOT #s or company namesoff truck tractors or trailers and I will call the companies and file a complaint with the DOT!!! I had a windshield replaced that very same way!!! Its horses*** and they need to pay if they want to be so freakin negligent!! SORRY, that just pushes my button when I hear stories like that!!! [:@]
BTW, too bad you didnt get any info on the truck....I would have called for ya!!!

thanks everyone, im going to stay with it and im going to see a body shop tomorrow and hope he gives me a high estimate. Yea it'll probably happen again, since those trucks are comin from a major construction site near my house where they are building sort of a mall, but this time, i'll yank the car around and use the horsepower to stop those jerks, it just happened so fast, that i couldnt react like that. But if it does happen again, i'll be sure to get the info, there was literally 3 trucks, with lots of cars going the other direction, they were doin about 45mph in 35mph zone and we stoppin at this light, that i had just made, As they were slowing down i got covered in dust and rocks, and once i looked back they were far lost among the trucks, buses and cars. I have to recheck my car tomorrow for any other chips but i doubt it. Thanks Again everyone

Here in MI, its the owner/operators responsibilty to make sure his load is of the proper size and NEEDS to covered. And they ARE responsible for any damages resulting from their negligence.

BTW............either way, you still have aawesome looking car!!!!!! They are small enough that you could get by until you are ready to do something!! Save up some cash and pay to have it done yourself and not jack with insurance!!

3M makes an invisible bra for cars. I've seen in on some high end Mercedes. It's a clear film that goes over your front end and is impact resistant up to about 100 mphI believe. You can hardly see it. I am considering it myself.
