Got Rear Ended today... I WON!
So I was coming out of the school parking lot and I stopped in traffic. all of a sudden I get hit from behind hard enough to make the truck jump forward a few feet and whip my head into the headrest. Here are some pics of the damage. I suffered a ding in the bumper and a broken exhaust mount. I believe that the bumper is pulled down a bit as well but I'm not sure. The Honda Accord was a little bit worse for the wear...
I guess I would venture far enough as to say that my hitch may have saved me...

let me guess female talking on her cell phone, when she hit you??
There are alot of accidents around here caused by people with cell phones, paying more attention to their converstations then the road.

Actually no, I have reason to believe that the dude was lighting one up and wasn't paying attention, made more suspicious by the way his passenger got the hell out of there as fast as he possibly could... but I'm not sure. I know his track record, but I'm not really worried about it because the Insurance company may just cut me a check for $500 and call it good. i know I can fix it for way less than that...

I'm glad your OK man! I had the same thing happen to me at a toll plaza when I lived down in Florida. I have always left my hitch installed since then. Mine went right through the little cars condenser and radiator. I got out looked at my truck and looked at the car and told the lady I wouldn't even worry about calling the cops, but she might need to call a tow truck instead. Unfortunately for her there was a cop a couple rows down that witnessed the whole thing so she got a ticket, tow home, and a big repair bill. I guess it gets expensive being stupid! I never even tried to get any money b/c I couldn't even find a scratch. I guess if I was like some people I would have sued for whiplash. Anyway, again I am glad you and your truck came out OK!
