We got into an accident. I won't go into details because we are in the middle of battling insurance companies. I will just say it was the other driver who got cited.
The other guy's car has no driver's side mirror now and tire marks from the headlight to the door handle.

Husband and I are fine. But I have to say Chase is a little pissed. The truck was virtually flawless until yesterday.
We go in on Thursday to get the estimate for repairs.

Thanks, we are still in shock I think.
But, we didn't let it ruin out getaway. We had so much fun at the museum today. I will have to organize a image shack page for all 200 or so pictures. :P

I'm glad you are unhurt. I understand your husband's unhappiness. Down here, you just don't mess with a man's truck. You need to make it a big bandaid to put on the "owie". It always made my kids feel better, got any spiderman or snoopy fabric?

So glad you are both OK. Cars can be replaced but you guys can't be.

What year and make is his truck? It looks custom. It's cute. Looks like a toy.

Ooohhh - went back and looked and see it's specs - '53 Ford. Bet that's his "BABY".

It's a 1953 Ford F-100. It sits on a 1979 Ford Bronco 4x4 chassis.
