Was that in US or Canadian money[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img] That's outrageous[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img]

like this one

Gotta find one cheaper on the internet[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
It was Cdn $$, but that's still about $800 US with current exchange rates. my dad recently retired from Ford as a parts manager, so he had connections and got the price down to around $680 (Cdn). BUT, my 20+ years of no accidents entitled me to a mistake with my ins. co., at no increase in premium. so what the heck, i'll save the $$.

the mirror is electric and extends out. looks a bit like an accordian in the middle where it extends. the sad part was the damage was minimal and this thing coulda been easily fixed, BUT, not when the truck is brand new. if it had been me, i woulda kept the old one for a spare, and fixed it.

the even dumber thing is; the cost to my ins co is irrelevant. in other words, i coulda wiped out a carload of lawyers, had my co. pay out 2-3 Million in claims, and it's still be a freebie to me in terms of my rates. well, i'm glad this one was just a minor hic-up.

That sucks! I guess the question is, did you scratch your camper? Oh well, you make the big bucks... I guess you should have had your wife drive.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] That's what you get for being an idiot wrapped in a moron.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

b&rw, Finally got around to putting gear in those bags I bought. Well, need to change my review[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] Even though they are 30" long and big compartments[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I couldn't get a helmet in there along with a chest protector. So, I'll be bringing them back[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

Guess, I'll start my search all over again[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]
I bought a couple bags (the one's with the seat), a few years ago, and they suck (not water proof / resistant). If I'm out camping, I have to take a tarp. However, they have huge pockets that velcrow, zip, and latch with straps. The one's I want are $250 each.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

Anyone doing anything fun today? I've already spent half the day in management meetings (O' joy).
