Default Not A Good Day

I've been feeling pretty sh*%ty lately and have been feeling like snapping at anytime. Well today it happed. My friend (boss) was putting a wheely in the back of the 2003 GMC Sierra. The wheely feel on my hand triggering me to go ape sh*t on the wheely. The bad part is I took one last blow and it was at the truck. Not knowing that I caused damage I walked away. When I came back my friend said "nice dent you left". I looked over and sure as sh*t a huge dent in the rear quarter panel just above the wheel well.

He wasn't mad but I do have to pay for the repair. How much you think it'll run me? I'm thinking pretty close to a grand. I thought that HD trucks had hevier guage sheet medal. It looks like someone lobbed a baseball at it. Should I have my insurance company pay for it or what? I felt bad about it too since they never do anything bad to me.

I doubt if your insurance would pay for it since you weren't in a vehicle. And to state the obvious.... What was gained from your outburst? You need to try and get your temper in check.

Its a GM truck, what do you expect. Nice punch though, its more of a form then pure power to dent something like that. Punch through, not at

Get your normal house hold plunger and go to town. Good way to remove dents from large areas. Dented the bed of my truck once and used a plunger to get the worst of it out. Works pretty well.

And no the HD'* don't have any different body construction than a *-10. You can buckle those sides by just leaning against it. U must have clocked it pretty good though, I've kicked my truck before and just leave foot prints on it :? ...LOL
