All I did from what Iccould see was scuff the underside of the passenger bumper cover and put a little dent in the outlet of the muffler exit pipe.

I broke the lense on my headlight and bent the corner of the hood.


My bumper slid under hers and most of the impact was taken by the hitch mount on the passenger side you can see I just dented the exhaust exit on the pipe

Good morning woodchucks and imposters. Happy first Saturday of the year! Jim, sorry to hear about your bump and grind. I had one of those bumps a couple of years ago when I was backing out of a parking spot with the 4Runner and a little car pulled right behind me and I couldn't see it because it was below my line of sight. Cracked her mirror and my taillight. Always sucks, especially because it was technically my fault even though I was already part way out and she just pulled in behind me. Insurance company covered it and because I've never had a claim didn't raise my rates but it is a sucky feeling.

Have a good day folks.

Good morning Vermont and FTE land. Have a great Saturday and get ready for our big storm. Another rain storm. Hopefully mostly snow but temps will be 30's so shouldn't be much melt but don't need any more water added to it

Good morning Shawn It does suck.. Definitely worried about rates. I haven'tbeen in an aaccident for years and been a long time since last windshield claim. If it does go up then time to find a new insurance crook. It better not be more than $1000-1500 or I'llbe ggetting involved

Howdy Vermont. Sorry to hear about the fender bender Jim. I know it sucks. Went through that back in 2013 with the truck. Cost the other persons insurance more then they expected for sure.
