Can Anyone Beat This....

[offroad copperhead]

Ok...here's The Question, Can Anyone Top F^%# Up Three Titan In One Year. If Not I Think I Deserve The A$$ Of The Year Award. It Goes Like This.
1) 2004 Xe Titan 3000 Miles
It's May Of 05 And I Feel The Need To Go Fishing. The Only Problem Is I Have No Hitch On My Xe And I Have To Go Fishing That Day. I Decide What The Hell I'll Just Cut A Hole In The Plastic Part Of The Bumper (by The Way Cost 37 Dollars To Replace) Where A Ball Hitch Goes And Haul A$$. I Cut The Hole, Put The 2" Ball Through The Bumper, Hitch The Boat And Off I Go. All Is Going Smooth Until I Get To The Pond. Somebody Has Put A Bunch Of Big Rocks At The Loading Dock So You Cant Pull In Their Precious Yard. I Decide I'll Just Back In, Well For Some Reason Jack Knifeing A Boat Is No Big Deal To Me. I Finnaly Get The Boat In The Water Only To Get Out And See That I Have Put A Beer Can Size Dent In -not One Side But Both Sides Of My Bumper. Beleive Me I Said Words Only A Sailor Could Appreaciate And To Top It Off I Didn't Catch A Damn Fish. Total Cost $120 For Used Bumper From Ebay.
2)2005 Titan Se 32 Miles
So I Smoked My Buddy In His 2004 Ford F-150 And He Buy's A Titan After All The S#&* Talkin I Do. Were Huntin And After A Long Night Of Spot Light'n (just Kiddin) Were Coming Down Through The Field To His Farm House. I See A Beer Bottle Sitting On The Fence And Decide To Do A Drive By With The Hammer Laying In The Floor Board. This Is Mistake Number 1. I Take A Big Swing Only To Collect His Door Post In The Process -this Being Mistake Number 2. Well I Hit The Bottle But Also Put A Dent About The Size Of A Half Dollar In The Side Of The Door Post. Total Cost 2 Lawn Mowers....the Paint Was Worked Out On Trade, Thank God.
3) 2004 Nissan Se 9000 Miles
It Was One Of Those Ice Storms That Lay Around For Weeks. I Had Decided To Park And Get My Mail Only To Find That A Heavy Truck And Ice Dont Mix. Well There It Went With All It's Glory Right Into My Mail Box. Taking Out The Mailbox Post And Pushing A Dent The Size Of A Pinto In The Drivers Side Door. Total Cost $1500 Plus A New Mail Box Post.

Can Anyone Top This, If Not I Expect The Jackass Of 2005 Award..

HAHAHAHAHA.......Sorry but everybody has there years. Hope you better luck from here on out.

[chunko]

Needed that story... Sounds like some sh1t I'd do.

I think you need to calm down and learn to use the truck to go get the beer and sit in front of a TV all day. Quit acting like a senior in High school!

I thought I might have a moron of the year award when I dropped my black tarp straps in my driveway and had issues picking them up. I got frustrated and tossed them hard behind my back. Clank clank clank...they bounced off the hood of my BLACK 04 and came to rest on the ground next to them. They left 3 bad but small chips in the hood and one on the top of the left fender. I swore like a drunken sailor. It's staggering how many stupid little things we do

[pagerdaddy]

I backed into a mailbox the first day I had the Titan. Then later the same day, I dented the hood with my palm. We've had Dumbass of the Day
threads before.

Maybe we could start a Dumbass of the Year Contest. The winner could be subjected to intense ridicule from fellow members.

When i park my truck here in DC, im used to having a very tight area. Well one night i was pulling into a spot on the side of the road (I usualy back in ,but the layout of the curb made that impossible) and dragged the side of my truck along the brush guard of on older Range Rover . The black brush guard was invisible to me at night, and stuck out about 4 inches, just enough to catch the side of my truck from the passenger door, to about 1ft from the tail light.

No damage to the Range Rover, but quite a bit of bodywork required for my Titan.

It happens to all of us...

OMG!!!! That would've driven me over the edge. If something like that happened to me from a Range Rover with a stupid brush grill on it like that, I probably would walked over to it and kicked in every body panel on that truck. J/K! Realistically, I probably would've just sat in my Titan and had a "heart attack".LOL!

I'm fortunate enough to never have done anything stupid to damage any of the vehicles I ever owned, but I did run into a curb with my Dad's truck one time. The tire cost $85 to replace and it was the result of me fumbling around with a Coke can while driving. That was the most expensive can of Coke I ever had.

I did break a grill clip while putting on my Dunder Dan grill inserts though. Does that count?

The bad thing about this particular clip is that you have to buy the whole factory front grill to get it. It comes out of the slot behind the grill, but Nissan doesn't sell the clip separately. It's one of those clips that connect the front grill to the headlight bezel. Oh well....life can be so unfair!:

I think you should have kicked yourself in the "Jimmy" for every one of these infractions. The first one would have hurt, but a lesson learned. After the second you would have been laid up for a while and hopefully unable to do the third offense.
By the way, thanks for the story. It made all my little accidents in life seem so small in comparison. Like the Harley I got in '04 and dented the fender while making modifications. Less than 500 miles on it and a quarter size dent. Kicked myself in the "Jimmy" and didn't do it again. No, really I sat in my driveway and would have cried.. but I didnt want to mess up the great shine on my dented fender.
