Cool Darn the bad luck

I went a purchased an f-450 king ranch as a replacement to a vehicle that was stolen. So I take my new ride down to the alarm shop and get the biggest baddest alarm i can find. Well as they take it back to there install bay the idiot driving runs my dually fender into a nice sized I-beam. Obviously he wasnt paying attention and furthermore tries to say the dent was already there. Luckily I had some snapshots on my phone of my ride just the day before and the store agreed to replace the fender and comp me half the alarm. Just a warning for all us superduty owners, drive it into the install bay yourself..

just had to rant a little

I'm surprised it didn't put you in cardiac arrest lol. but not defending what happend to your truck thats horrible and it sucks you had to prove it to them that they did it. But not for nothin typically look at the employees in these fields. Usually kids, jerks that just don't care, and just plain idiots who can probably install stuff but have no common sense.

If I had just bought the truck I would have told where to take fling leap to bum f&%*# and no way that I would have done that to my truck in one day and your idiot tech did to cover his a@@@. So he wouldn't get it trouble, but by lying he just going to get into more trouble. I would been very very pissed off we would had few choice words for them. and they would still fix it right after that.
