Welcome to Brad's online memory archives.

Bent Bumper

Yesterday, Russell helped me with my truck a little. I met him at his workplace, and he attached one end of a chain to a storage container, and wrapped the other end around my bumper. I then backed up. slowly… slowly… and pulled the bumper out a little.

In the process, I discovered that nothing was really holding my grill on. I’m glad it hadn’t blown away while driving down the highway!

My truck seems to be fully functional, but there is a lot of bent this-and-that in the front end. Russell said I could order parts and replace them myself. I may try it. It seems like there are more pressing things for me to spend money on though.

    That is so great that you know Russell! He sounds like a man in the know.

    I’m not so sure about repairing everything on your truck. It seems like a beat-up truck would be a deterrent to thieves. I think you could start being a jewel courier and leave stuff in there unlocked. No one would bother it. 😉

    Yeah, just leave it so you can buy your bathroom accents! You know, it’s like a scar that you’re proud of, an untold story, a mystery to others? And yes, thief deterrent! If it was a high dollar brand new truck it would be a different story. A story people would know… that’s a brand new truck – boring. Keep the mystery and take a door ding free of care!
