    What collisions may be.

    Okay. This has been a week from hell. It started with a driver pulling out of a spot in a t/s. he came to close and scrapped my deer guard. No biggy right.? Then two days later, my regen system hiccups but is solvable. Same day, a young lady loses control of her suv and slams into my front end. It destroyed my deer guard, front left fender, bumper, and all lights. This was a new truck. Now it's broken in. My student was driving at the time. They listened to everything I told them. Well done student. I am glad that the deer guard was there. It took a lot of impact and saved the motor from any damage. I will be getting another one.

    Yes it does suck. And yes. They are going to fix it. I am a lease driver. So they better. I'm on my way to the yard now. Should be there Tuesday. The important thing is no-one got hurt.
