Default With All the Crap I Been Through the Last 2 Months...

Some jerkweed decided to key the doors on the drivers side of my Dodge. I'm glad I got full coverage, otherwise I'd be paying the $1200 out of own pocket.

Nothing really pisses me off as much as that crap. It's one thing if you ding someone's door on accident, but when someone intentionally defaces someone elses pride and joy. In fact it doesn't matter if it's someone's $500 car, you shouldn't be messing with other guy's ****. Get a life.

One of my buddies, a younger guy around 21 yrs old, he's been saving for a while to buy himself a diesel. He recently acquired a nice 06ish LBZ crew cab. Really clean truck, nice dark blue paint. He had it parked up at a huge truck show in Syracuse called King of Trucks. Came outside to see someone took a key to the bed on the drivers side above the wheel well. Why would someone do that? Jerk offs.

When I was in high school, my grandmother used to let me use her car. It was a 1983 Lincoln Continental (graduated in 2002 for time reference). The car was MINT, had only 49k original miles on it... 302 auto EFI, rode like a dream! Apparently I had a fan club... the car was keyed, one of the clear corner lenses for the front was kicked out of the car, and across the back of the trunk where it read "continental" someone tried stealing the letters off of it. Luckily Lincoln knew how to build cars back then. The clear corner cost me $120, and the single letter for the trunk, the letter "I" was $21. Had to get them out of Florida, place called lincoln land. Some jackass also tried stealing the lincoln symbol from the hood. Lincolnd made it flexible, but it's attached with steel cable inside. They spun it around and around and around and it never came off, but the lincoln symbol scratched the hood in a nice circular shape all around the car. Never found out who did it. That would have been the only reason I would have swung at someone in high school.

Shortly after I started at my current job, my bosses truck got keyed by an employee that she had just fired. My boss had just gotten the truck not too long before. She had been saving for a long time to get this 03 Ram 1500. Even though we knew who did it, the cops wouldn't/couldn't do anything because nothing was caught on the stores cameras and no witnesses, no proof.

With the older trucks that I usually own, I probably wouldn't notice if someone keyed my truck, but if someone did and I found out about it, they would be hurting. It doesn't matter if the truck is old and the paints shot or if its brand new, you don't mess with a persons truck, or anything for that matter! Heck, when I was still in school, I'd get a little ticked off when people thought the bed of my truck was a trash can. I'm glad that's all it ever was, but still the fact of its not your truck, leave it alone.

Anyway, hope you find out who did it.

As much as I'd love to find jackweeds that do that kind of thing and bludgeon them to death with an aluminum baseball bat or ball-peen hammer.......


You WILL end up paying for that repair in the long run (and for many years afterward). There's a reason insurance companies don't make going-out-of-business commonplace.

That sucks! I had a similar thing, bump with some ****** bumper. I parked beside a Ford going into a returant, came out to see the Ford gone and scrapes down the side of my passenger side.

Take a picture of the cars parking next to you before leaving your car-including license plate...

Good idea if you have the time and wherewithall to do it. Don't help with clowns keying your ride though.
