I have only had my car since 7/30 last year. Within a month, I had gotten a nail in the side of my tire and it had to be replaced, I have run through fresh yellow stripe paint because the idiot in front of me couldn't stay off of it. That took me 2 clay bars and 4 hours to get off. Had one dent popped because something came off the road and hit me. Messed up 2 of my rims on a stupid rail going into a touchless car wash. Now some jerk has put a huge ding in the lip of my rear fenderwell. I'm not even sure a dent Dr. can fix it.



This is by far the nicest car I have ever owned in my life and I just can't stop things from happening to it. I have been driving over 38 years and never had to have a ding popped and I have NEVER scraped a rim. WTF? I just don't understand.

Poor Skyler.

Sorry to hear man...we are at the mercy of other drivers in a parking lot.

I'd never go through a car wash that has "guides"...with the G's rims wider than the OEM tires, you're asking for trouble!

Looks like you need some tequila and salt...

Trust me...I know how you feel.

Someone opened their door and the wind must have caught it (either that or they whipped theri door open) and gave me a big dent. So I paid almost $500 to have it fixed. THAT LASTED 3 DAYS!!! It happened again on the same side!!

Then, someone a couple weeks ago must have been pulling out of their parking spot and swiped/scraped the side of my car. So I have a big scrape now.

I'm trying to just shrug it off and not get pissed anymore because I have no control over assphats...

So yup...I know how you feel...

I have found a car wash that has no rails. It is a good one and the blow dryer goes for 80 seconds! It will really get the car clean.

I know I shouldn't run it through a c/w at all, but when the weather is cold, I do.

AGREED!! It's going to be a VERY sad day when she goes *knocks on wood* She has been out Mayor for so long that no one even bothers running against her anymore..lol. She is an amazing woman that has done incredible things. She's got a no nonsense "F-U if you don't like it" attitude...lol

We are the only debt free city in Canada (mind you house prices here are INSANE) She also gets approached by world leaders (if you can believe it) for her thoughts and ideas on issues and policies!

Long live Hazel!!

Let Memphis have her for a while and you can have our Mayor. He has run Memphis right into the ground and has his hand in every illegle thing he can possibly get into. It is such a shame what he has done to this city.

When I received the email with her video, I said that it is a shame that the media focuses on bimbos like Paris Hilton and Britney Spears and never mentions good women like her!
