So I was rear ended last night after I slowly braked for a dog that ran out in front of my truck. I was rear ended by a cheby malibu, which was rear ended by a ferd. Im not at fault since I was rear ended and I had the right to yield for the animal. The girl behind me had just been drinking and we were on our way to a bonfire, it was her first time drinking too.

I did not tell the cop that at the time. She was also on the cell phone, i was told this by someone she was in the car with and also the person she was talking to told me she was on the phone. She has insurance, hopefully full coverage and not liability because I dont want to play games.

Im looking for a heavy duty rear bumper now what does our sponsors have, ill get some shots of the screen up later. Her car is totaled!

If it was a roll pan he'd be needing a new bed! Lucky it was a bumper.

Im either going oem painted white, or a heavy duty bumper. The bumper is what saved the rear quarter panels of my bed, my tail lights, my tail gate, and more.

Do you guys think the entire bumper needs to be replaced? I dont think you can bend out this steel and make it look normal

If her insurance is paying replace it and have it sprayed. It can be pulled out and look ok but you will be able to see any differences in it.

One of the reasons I am very hesitant about wanting to install a roll pan. Roll pan = 0 protection back there and since there are tons of idiot drivers out its a tough call.
