wife drives max, guess what happened?

if you said car accident---- you are correct!!!

well she finally did it! my wife was driving the max today and she stopped by mc d's to get a shake at the drive through. and when she was coming out she bumped into a guy. she got out and looked and didn't see no damage where she thought she hit him.
then he said what about this dent? and it was lower and more forward than where my wife said she hit him. she was going like 5mph at the most.
hit him with the front bumper. that bumper can't possible leave a dent at that speed. but of course they exchanged info and she didn't call the police. there was a dispute so she should have called to get a third party involved to settle it. so now he is goona roll us unless i go to court and have the cars lined up to prove it i guess.

i guess there is paint on my bumper from his car. i am too pi$$ed and scared to look at it.

it was only a matter of time before something like this happened.
i am cursed!!!

That sucks...
Not proud of it but... I don't let the wife drive my Max. If it is going to get messed up, I want to be the one doing it.

My moms cars are cursed. Somebody always ends up hiiting her car.

Last year around november some dumb a-hole opened his truck door and put a little dent in my door ( ). Thank god my dad's work has security cameras or we would never knew who did it. So the guy said he didn't do it but his door lined up with the dent and he paid for it. The estimate to get the door fixed I think is like $300. So now the whole door has to be repainted and I hope the colors match!!!!

that's what happens when you hit the brakes and the car 'dives' into the one in front. If you line them up, remember that your front bumper could drop 3-4 inches so see if it lines up at that height...

Just trying to save you from making a mistake in front of the judge. It might be better to just offer the guy $200 to make him go away.

Sorry to hear it.

That's why I got my wife a Maxima of her own. She NEVER drives mine.

well the guy called and i went and looked at the car and there was a nice crease in the door. so i gave him 400 and had him sign a note.
i guess that is better than having my ins go up.

she said it was just a little bump. yeah right!!! i knew better than to believe her.

oh and the max front bumper has to be repainted. nice scrapes into the bumper, may even have to be filled in a little. $$$$$$$ just flying away.

remind me why i have a wife!


i guess i can look on the bright side, at least she wasn't driving my new Avalanche.
