My Methods saved my ass!!

[Jackemuphigh21]

So I was heading back from lunch to my office today and some old man decided he drives by his own rules and doesn't have to stop at stop signs before pulling out of parking lots onto busy roads and hit me on my passenger side. Needless to say I was PISSED when I got out of the truck. As I walked around to the passenger side rear of the truck i was surprised only to find red paint (from the bumper of his bitchin chevy S-10) on my Method DS wheel and Toyo M/T tire. I was able to rub almost all the paint from the lip of the wheel with my finger and fingernail. The lip bolts had taken some chunks from his plastic bumper tho haha. Luckily there was absolutely no damage anywhere else and I tried to be as respectful to the old man as I could even tho I was so angry at that point. I told him to be safe and shook his hand and sent him on his way. I firmly believe if it had not been for having the offset of the Method wheels and the wide Toyo M/T that it would have gotten into the body very easily and taken the back bumper as well.

Just remember. That'll be you some day.

You got his info though, and asked him to at the very least cover a four wheel alignment to be totally sure everything is still straight. Right?

Stupidly enough on my part BigJ no I didn't. I can't even begin to tell you how unclearly I have been thinking lately. I'm going through a divorce, running an I.T. department that takes 4 people all by myself this week, selling my house, splitting up assets. I tell you what things have just been a trudge lately man. I'm just praying everything is ok and I didn't screw myself over at this point. If I did then I guess lesson learned and I get to soak it up this time. ****** but what in my life isn't right now? haha

Damn Brother, sorry to hear. It can't rain all the time...

Keep your eyes on all four tires. If there's a problem, it will probably show up in the tread relatively quickly.

Good luck with everything especially the divorce. Did that a few years ago. Wasn't much fun. But then I upgraded at the wife position and have a Raptor on order so it does get better.

 

[Maxx2893]

Time to rent a few and check out the newer models. Maybe even a certified pre-owned.

Oh and keep the Raptor.

Oh Hell yeah the Raptor isn't goin anywhere. That bitch is paid for. Yeah I'm doin my best to keep busy and just focus on my 3 and 5 year olds at this point when I have them. I'm taking the opportunity to grow myself and better myself where I can. Hell I've even lost 50 lbs since march already.
