So I was parked on the street last night in front of my girlfriends apartment, and ran out to my truck at 10 O'Clock to grab our stuff and all was fine. Then this morning, I was getting ready for work and went over to check my phone after my girlfriend left for her work, and there was 5 missed calls from here...I was like what the hell, she crashed:eek:...No no, I was the victim here!!!!! Early that weekend, I was telling here about something wrong on my truck, and so I get this message "I think that your suspension collapsed, and there are parts of your truck all over the street."

So I finished getting ready and when I got out there, my front driver side of my truck looked like a low rider on 35's. There were chunks of green plastic all over the street, a mirror, some of the glass, and my truck was wrecked!! So I called my buddy and he came over to give me a ride but first i needed to handle this. So i called the cops and they sent out an accident investigator, and she was like "ya you definitely got hit and ran." So after her investigation and took her pictures, she asked if we had looked around for a car at all...and she thought it was a saturn, because they always end up being the plastic cars, she said.

So my buddy and I went and looked around a little bit, and I was joking around because I thought there was no freakin way that they were still around here. Many green cars around, but none with exploded front fenders. And so I was gonna give up, and said to just go down this one and then we will go to work. AND GUESS WHAT!!!! THERE IT WAS!!!!! A green saturn with an enormous chunk out of the fender and no mirror and a donut for a tire. You can imagine how my buddy and I were feeling now that I just cracked this case wide open :D !!!!

So I called the cop back and told her where we were. She pulled up and brought some of the chunks that she found, and sure enough, the chunk fit perfectly in there, and there was some of the same glue on the car and mirror. Definitely the right car...now where was the driver? They ran the plate and found out who it was, and went and knocked on the door. She answer. JUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSTICE!!!!!!!!!

Today, redemption was spelled B-I-G_A-S-S_T-I-C-K-E-T

Got the insurance info and called and all is good...You know except for my blown up front suspension.;)

That sucks that you got hit but it is bitter sweet finding the jerk that hit you and then ran away. What is next, a Dana 60?

I still cant believe how much damage it did. The lower ball joint is cut in half!

Its still 3000(?) pounds that is hitting it. I am guessing she was going pretty fast too. Also, you can see that the passanger tire is up against the curb. So that probably contributed to all the damage.

Dana 60 would be nice...

Wow looks really bad. I hope you don't have to pay for anything to get it fixed seems like these types of situations never work out for me and the other guy gets off free.

So I知 curious to what her excuse was "oh sorry officer I totally forgot that I ran into an 8000lbs truck last night I値l try not to drink so much next time.

On a funnier note and I知 not making fun of your girl but this cracks me up

so I get this message "I think that your suspension collapsed, and there are parts of your truck all over the street."

No pictures of the Saturn? Also, am I reading right that the driver of the saturn only recieved a ticket. Isn't hit and run a felony where you live? Especially since the person has already shown that they are not willing to stick around.

Big Ass ticket? H&R, it'll get pled down to a headlight. Too bad her car wasn't disabled on the scene too (amazing how it wasn't). Sounds like maybe a drunken driver got away with it...But still , it looks all wrong to me. A Saturn did that to a parked 2500 and drove away?

It's always nice to know when things turn out for someone. A little off topic but, was she hot? :D

Probably not with that brown running down her leg. :eek:
I would think that would kind of have a tendency to put you off a bit. :D

If it were me I would not let her get away with just a ticket, I would pursue more strict consequences or even take her to court. She is going to kill someone some day.

Wow! At least you found who did it. I will for sure win the race now:D I thought a hit and run was a felony too. She should have her license taken away as a minimum

Haha, i laughed too and got the "well, i was driving and didnt stop to look at it that close..." I was just proud that she used words like 'suspension' and 'colapsed' and 'driver side thingy' :D

Pretty much nailed it on the head. First thing waking up to a cop at your front door.

Did I mention she got hit with 3 counts of Hit and Run? I am pretty sure that she isnt getting to get off that easy.

Its on a tow truck right now and it would STILL beat you JC. :p:
