Excursion Down

I am So pissed right now . My 04 Excursion just got into an axcident. The moron be hind me wasnt paying attention and WAM right in to my truck. . My excursion was able to drive home Pics in the moring. But the other car was smased so good it had to be dragged of the freeway. Thank god no one was hurt. The only damage to the truck is the trailer hitch plug for the trailer is smash and the bumper is all screwed up. I can say good by to my week long trip . Well Thanks for listing to my rant,
Nick

A little perspective? Why would you be pissed, you should be thankful that you were driving your Ex!! At 40mph rear ended in many cars you could have been VERY seriously hurt, injured, or even hospitalized or needed surgery.

It is frustrating and an inconvenience. But you should be extatic that you were in a Heavy truck!!

I don't understand why you are missing your "week long trip"?

Well Nick that truly sucks. I would bet that there is more damage than what you see. Hopefully you're taking your truck to a good shop.

You have two Excursions according to your sig, why postpone your trip??

Well look at it like this, you'll get a fresh new set of backup sensors so you wont have to worry about them going out for a long time now! Most important part is your safe though man, the truck will be repaired to like new i bet.

The 04 X has air bags and the 00 does not so the 00 would ride to low to the ground. I am taking it to the shop were the 00 X was in when it had an axcident. I truct them they did great work on it,

Dude...that really sucks...sorry for the misfortune...but thankfully everyone is okay...trucks and cars and bumpers can be fixed...lives cannot...so while it is frustrating...remember you still have tomorrow...and the rest of your life...

Have a beer...oops...tell your dad to have a beer and you watch him drink it and calm down!

Keep us updated and show some pictures if you can.
