Driving in stop and go traffic minding my own business, then this happens.







The damage to is worse than it looks. Both head lights are broken and the rad was pissing coolant. As for me.., the bumper is slighty dented and the change that was in my cup holder is everywhere.

 

haha wow new cars dont hold up worth ****.. probably like 5 - 6k of damage to that flex too parts are ridiculous.

 

LOL about the change... i have had this happen... i actually got hit with a 12 inch sub woofer one time in a crash, hurt like a sum biatch.

Glad everyone is OK!

 

one reason i love having a hitch on my truck.



totalled out a brand spankin new 06 maxima by hitting my hitch 2 years ago. her insurance company cut me a $1800 check, i bought a bumper for $125-150(i dont remember..it was cheap), and rocked it. can't even tell it was hit anymore.

 

looks like an edge..

metal vs plastic.. lol

 

Glad you and your truck is ok.

BTW, that car is the Ford Edge from what I can tell.

 

I AGREE 100%! I could tell that my hitch took most of the hit. Id get a a hitch even I didn't plan to tow anything!

 

Thanks

I had Flex on the brain for some reason.

 

that looks like an edge not a flex? I have been rear ended like 4 times in my ranger and each time not a scratch, solid trucks thats for sure

 

It's supposed to do that to keep the driver safe.

 

that sucks, i have my hitch on at all times, glad i did twice when i was in high school last year cuz 2 different ppl re-ended me while i was parked, and IN MY TRUCK!... ****** up there cars pretty bad, but not a scratch on my baby, good old hitch is a life saver.lol

 

ouch...sad thing is the newer 06+ rangers have a 98% fiberglass/plastic front end... my bumper and all is plastic... :-( but they still have the nice solid rear bumper :-D

 

aww man i wanted to see a wreacked flex =(


stupid *** fugly "cars"

 

you know that under that bumper cover is a metal bumper right?

 

The Edge wanted to sniff your Ranger butt.

Looks good on it. Ford pulled the Edge badge name from the Ranger to make way for that ugly thing.......well it looks bad and takes a punch on the nose like a puss.

 

Nice save with the Hitch. My truck didn't come with one so as soon as I save the money up for one its getting put on.

 

Reason for me to get a hitch. nice!. Glad everyones alright

 

See now I always leave my receiver in the hitch to ensure damage if any hits me. Nothing like a big **** hole in you radiator, also works well in parking lots, they have to hit that before your truck. So you know if you come out and see damage chances are you got them to.

 

Oh yea.

 

hehe...that is the exact same thing I have.


Everyone check your local craigslist for hitches! I have scored a couple for $50 on there! Both were hidden models too!

 

^^^ that's the idea you get me & I'll get you!

 

Yeah but believe it or not my mom got rear ended with her hitch in and the cars weight actually bent her frame in the rear end of her suburban.

 

Bent frame = new ride so momma scored! I just think after a werck you need to fix it then trade it in. No car is ever right again after it take a hard hit. That’s why after you smack your head with a helmet on you're supposed to replace the helmet. It just takes something away from it.

 

well i wish my truck would of help up that well when i got hit

 

It didnt get totalled but your right it f'ed up the tranny and the 4wd after that..

so she got rid of it and got a denali instead lol.
