I was expecting it to cost less but I'll keep that it in mind, thanks for the help!

I drove it yesterday and I regret it. I have to find a good time to wash the car before I store it since its now been exposed to salt.

It also looks incredibly dirty and I hate seeing it like that.

1st of all, sir, you acted very graciously. You didn't cuss out the truck driver. You probably saved him his job, because had his company found out about his poor driving (had he hit you)...the poor guy would probably be fired.
2nd, using a dashcam like that saves lots of "he said, she said" in case you got into an accident. No ambiguity, but can be a double edge sword if you're indeed at fault...But if you were at fault...you wouldn't mention the dash cam
3rd, no one was hurt.

Good job my man!

Thanks, great points! I'm really glad he realized I was there. He may have possibly been driving for hours and tired.

yesterday i saw a pt cruiser almost getting clobbered by a 4runner cutting across the street. the guy in the pt swirved out of the way just in time.

not sure if that was a good thing though.... if he didnt swirve out of the way he may not have had to keep his fugly car.

If that were Grand Theft Auto, I would have gotten out of the Z and ran back to pull him out of the truck before cutting his head off with a katana. Actually, nevermind. In GTA, I would have run the stop sign and probably plowed into him. Assuming the car wasn't on fire, I would have then proceeded on my merry way

Or just gotten into another Z after hitting the truck, if you could find one
