    After all that sweat equity along with the $$ and now the above.  You cannot catch a break (maybe fish...).  I'm not sure I would be as outwardly calm as you here.

    Hey I feel your pain. 13 years ago. 2 weeks after getting my brand new off the lot 4runner (that I still drive today by the way) Some Douche Canoe hit it parked out in front of my house head on going about 40. The entire front end was crushed pretty much. Insurance Adjuster said it was $500 worth of damage away from being totaled and me getting a new one. But they fixed everything at the dealer to showroom new condition and as above, I am still driving her to this day.

    Damn fish!  That sucks man.  You know we were just joking about your RR being in the shop within the week, right?

    Damn.  Which was quicker to be damaged, the Hummer or RR?

    I thought for certain it would self destruct at some point (it is a Range Rover), but this?  Holy Cannoli!

    There would be a hell of a lot less accidents if people put their infant's car seat in the passenger seat so they didn't turn around while driving. 

    Who knows, might be overall statistically safer than the "safer" location in the back.

    I got drilled by a lady looking over her shoulder at her kid.  You may be on to something.

    I’m betting the repairs are faster than the purchase.

    Seriously though, glad you’re alright and hopefully getting some humor from this.
    Love you bro!

    Fish, my brother, I am so sorry for joking about the RR. I hope this gets fixed and you are back driving it very soon. I am very glad that you were not injured or hurt in any way. It is just a vehicle, and they can repair those without much of a fuss. 
    Go fishing. Catch the winner. You are so due.

    Ok.  Honestly, did not see that coming.  Glad everyone was ok.

    Did you have it longer than you spent working the deal before you got hit?

    Plus, they have lots of practice repairing them ...... too soon?
