Thumbs down Yea Today SUCKED

Well I was on my way home from Baton Rouge and I stop for a cup of coffee. As Im backing out of the coffee shop I see Im about 3' from a sign so I look forward and Im about to put it into drive and WHAM I hit something. I saw nothing but the sign pole and I know I didnt hit it. Well I pull forward and there is a 2" pipe barrier around the sign thats below the line of vision on my truck. So I did some nice damage to my truck.











But at least I got my rear window redone so I can see through it now. LOL




So yes today SUCKS DONKEY *****

Actually no I was idling. I was moving about 3 to 5 MPH max.

Im thinking about having a bumper made but I know it would weigh like 250 lbs or more and I got enough weight with the HD as it is.
