I feel your pain. Maybe this will make you feel a little better. Last night I was driving our new BMW and we were stopped behind a vehicle waiting for it to turn left. Then here comes a dump truck from the opposite direction, hauling *** of course. A couple of large rocks bounce out from under it. They go over the clear bra and put a nice chip in the hood on their way to chipping the windshield all while sitting stopped in my lane.

That is pretty aggravating.

Not sure how it ended up there, it came out of nowhere.. All I heard was a big bang. No, it nailed(verb) my roof, it didn't have nails in it, well atleast I don't think so.. Thanks for all the sympathy, and stories it is really appreciated.... Now my gf is on her way to console me..

Anyways, now I have this big dent on the roof of the car, paint all gone... It was a pretty nasty hit... It looks horrible... Any advice on what I should do, cost... Anything well help, maybe some morale support.. (Car is 3 weeks Old)

Not necessarily, chances are he would be able to claim it as a non-collision accident and he would have to pay the lower of the deductibles. That was the case with a few of my cars, in fact i have had windshields replaced for $50.00 thanks to rocks/etc hitting my cars. Insurance never went up a cent

Best of luck, but chances are you will have an ******* claim adjuster who claims it is a $95.00 dent wizard, and then $5.00 touch up on the paint. they always try to screw you, and avoid you even using the deductible.


hope it works out

I thought this was gonna be another "I totaled my evo" thread lol. I feel your pain. File an insurance claim but don't expect the same premium come next year.
