Dramatic new mods, just not quite good ones
So Monday I was making a left and the Tahoe in front of me stopped short. I hit him, and his trailer tow bar did this (see attached photos). Initial estimate is about $8k
I've been driving for a little over 23 years and never hit anyone (although I have been rear ended 4 times and got t-boned by a drunk driver once).

Omg! Pjinca.... Are you ok? It looks bad but as long as you have full insurance and this is the first accident they should let it slide hopefully... They normally have that 1st accident forgiveness..hope everything gets sorted out and you get your baby back up and running

Hopefully if things work out Trinity will be hooking it up with some nice new mods during the repairs to make me feel a little better.

Yeah bro, I am fine, I was doing probably less than 15 mph. If the guy hadn't slammed on his brakes it wouldn't have been so bad - but trailer towbar and aluminum hoods REALLY don't agree with each other when they meet.

John, glad you are ok and your 5 isn't totaled or any worse than it is. Whay did they brake like that? Did the ball hit the radiator?
