....on my brand new 2011 Forte and it's goners. Hit by a 20 year old guy "on drugs" last night.
I never even put gas in it. Still running on the full tank that the dealer provided when I bought it 5 DAYS AGO!!!

I'm very thankful the car was parked and nobody was hurt. That's what is most important, my kids are safe.
The guy totaled 3 Parked Cars last night (well, one was an RV) and his own car.

The Police informed me this morning that the guy was arrested in the hospital and taken to jail.............but I got a voicemail from the dude a couple of hours ago. wtf?? I'm not calling him back. I'll let my insurance handle all of it.

    I'm not sure, but he still sounded all hopped up in the voicemail. Unbelievable!

    Oh no, that's a terrible story. But insanely lucky that no one was in your car.

    Wow, I'm really sorry. But as others have said _ good thing nobody was in your car at the time.

    I can't believe he called you, that's bizarre. And creepy.

    and he managed to rip off the front tire?!?!?
    sweetie, I'm so sorry! Let insurance take care of things...and again, I'm really glad you and your family were not in the car when it happened!
