good you didnt get hurt but id like to seen him have a run in with the sercurity team in the back yard the more pain the funnier it would have been though.

damage didnt look to bad but i guess a little pos like that cant hurt a real truck. By the way the grill looks good

Well, I got the estimate done today. Complete bumper assy, a/c condensor, and found out the intercooler is bent. Total is just over $2900.00 . I'm going to see about a much stouter aftermarket bumper to go back in the stock one's place.
I went to the police station and was told it will be another couple of days before the police report is available. I'll post up after I get that home.

Nope, I don't mind a bit. I think after all my excitement Friday morning, it fits me pretty good. I also thought the comment comparing me to Marcus Luttrel was pretty good too. That mentality fits me to a T.

These are the situations for which God invented hollow-points! Personally, I'd have pinned him up against the house and taken out the H&K in preperation for a running gun fight. USAA would have bought you a new garage door, anyway! Even if he was dumb enough to want to wrestle with #6000 of STEEL, I doubt he'd have argued with 180 grains of LEAD! Every now and again we need to drop some chlorine in the gene pool.

Thats what I was thinking I wouldnt have backed up to ram him just dropped it gear and start pushing from where I was if he wanted to play that game atleast put my 12000 pound winch threw his radiatior. GLad it worked out though.

Hydra-Shoks are my coated lead of choice for my carry pistol.. Unfortunately I didn't have it with me, or it would have been over in a matter of seconds. I can't say enough good about USAA though. The body shop who did the estimate not only lied to me about trying to get ahold of me for a week... they also tried to make it very difficult for me to get an aftermarket bumper, going back on their word. I had already cleared it with USAA. After talking to USAA about it, they pulled the check from the body shop, and reissued it to me directly. Won't take too many more of those complaints, and they won't be getting USAA's business anymore either.
The gene pool is definitely in need of a good chlorine injection.
