Went around the property filling feeders.
It's nice not having to clean corn and feed out of the trailblazer, just drop the tailgate and sweep it out.

All my trails were made to clear the trailblazer though...

The car that caused the accident and myself both have State Farm. They called me this morning to make sure everyone was still pain free and to offer to send an appraiser to evaluate my vehicle. State Farm rocks.

Bad luck on the bump, maybe you'll come out with some new mod money!

I've had good luck with State Farm. I've had them for my auto for over 15 yrs.
I have a friend who sells Farm Bureau, I called him a few years back and he said man you've got a good rate, I can't help you. I have everything through them now. My former agent retired a few years ago. I got transferred to a new agent and he wanted me to come in to review my policy. He was able to bump my auto ins up to the next level for basically nothing.

I've only needed them to fix a few cracked windows and I had two small accidents several years ago that they took care of quickly.

When my wife was in her bad accident almost 2yrs ago the girl that hit her had the minimum ($30k), they paid the max of the under-insured (3 policies stacked) no problem.

How bad did it get into the hatch?

Glad everyone is ok.
I've never had State Farm, seems like they are on the ball.

My Exhaust is a little bent. No other damage. Several members here know that it wasn't perfect before the accident. LOL
My step sons and I are fine. Him being so low, it was like a NASCAR safer barrier as my hitch crushed everything above his bumper. I feel bad for the guy in the middle. He was pushed into me (3rd car admitted it) car is totaled and the state trooper still gave him a ticket for hitting me.

Maybe you can justify an ass stache now!

Pretty rough getting a ticket for getting pushed into someone. Them the breaks I suppose. At least no one was hurt.

This is an aggressive post. You probably won’t like it. It is quite doubtful that you have the taste or sophistication to be able to appreciate a post of this quality and depth.

Nice looking truck Cory. Sometimes I wish mine was back in that simpler, yet very effective state.
