I’m pissed
Well today after work , I'm driving home and there is an area where they are doing construction.....They have those big orange construction barrels blocking off 2 lanes on the highway.....so I'm cruisin and come off the onramp onto the highway and somebody had hit one of those barrels and it was in the middle of the road....I tried to swerve to miss it but didn't, well, slammed into it got sideways at about 50 mph on the highway and almost lost control... i'm lucky I didn't or hit any other cars...well, smashed and tore the rightfront bottom of my bumper cover..How gay...well looks like I gotta fork out some cash.... I have a $500 deductible..<IMG src=smileys/smiley19.gif border="0">

That's awful man....you have paint that is beyond hard to make look right now....</P>
This reminds me of when a huge black contractors bag came flying out of the back of a truck, only 2 days after I had my Iroc-z back from a complete paint job & color change, there was nothing I could do other than hit the bag...it ripped off my entire front valance and tore off a brake line. <IMG src=smileys/smiley11.gif border="0"></P>
