Do you have a Car or a Truck?
I have a Truck. It not only sounds awesome when I say it, I think it's a truck chassy? But mostly it sounds awesome.

It really amazes me how many drivers mount kerbs, they seem totally oblivious about tyre and alloy damage and what’s worse when they expect you to do the same, I don’t regardless of how long I hold the traffic up.It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

anything like that happens in our house and all the females turn into Shaggy
especially the daughter, last one I had just had the rear bumper resprayed on her car after a little scrape and was watching her reverse out the drive and saw her clip the wall, didn't even stop.
Paint left on the wall and bumper scraped at the same height, denied it stiff
Needless to say its still like that after 2 years, I've given up

I get the impression DSL is volunteering to do that for you.
At least he hasn't said "scrap her".
Not yet. That depends whether she does it again. Don’t tell MrsDSL I said this but she is brilliant looking after wheels. She doesn’t have a single ding on any of her 2 sets for her car and is really good at judging kerbs.
Now I’ve torn it, better make sure we have all the insurance we can get for the hire car we pick up in Perth in 3 weeks time.

Yep same. Wife took the car 3 weeks ago so I took the spare. Got back from work and she was upset and told me. They’re the summer wheels and now the winters are on they’ll be refurbed before the switch back.visiting from www.rrsport.co.uk
