do you remember his license plate?
you insurance company should cover this kinda accident...
my gf got into 2 accidents in 2 less than 2 months and no other cars were involved.. (i know.. wtf
).. damaged the front bumper.. and it was covered by insurance.. talk to ur insurance company.. b!tch at them if they refuse to cover you... hope ur car will be back on the road soon
a load and tire blowing out are 2 different things... were not talking about rocks that hit your car.. this is about a blowout.. what am i every truck driver in the world.. ok fine.. then your every ignorant driver that is in this world..

its a blow out on a tire. not an object intentionally throw, or unsecured cargo. tell ya what, if a tire blows out on your car, and hits someone, its not your vault.. unless its proven that you were negligent and had a faulty tire... good luck proving that one...

you know nothing.. 75 percent of tire failures are on new rubber, not recaps..

boy you are such naive people.. try driving one.. ohhhh the big truck is in my way.. i dont like him.. they should all go slow.. well why dont people learn a little patiance, and understanding.. oh thats right cause your in a damn hurry to go nowhere..

Why would you try to start the car with no oil in it?

Stop f-ing around with the car and call your insurance co immediately. Because the damage was caused by stuff flying off the truck, all the damage should be covered by the comprehensive part of your insurance policy, which means that it should not affect your rates if you file a claim. Have it taken to the Mitsu dealer for evaluation and repair.

This is the same guy that crashed his Evo in the snow with the stock tires on. If you want to know what not to do with your Evo read his post history.
