Default I give up

I moved up to the city here at few weeks ago, when I moved my father said to me "Don't plan on keeping your car nice do you?, because it won't stay nice up there for long"

Well, he was frigging right, Within a month, someone hit the back bumper (that was just repainted 4 months ago from someone else hitting it!!) and blishered the paint on the corner, annoying but it's not to bad.

However, Yesterday morning topped the cake, I went out to go to work to see this



So I give up, I swear, I will never buy a silver car again, Everyone I know who has a silver car has nothing but bad luck. But this is getting Ridiculous

Sorry about your Monte. I've had so many close calls lately, I'm almost afraid to go anywhere. I just know that someone is going to screw mine up for me and I'm just not so sure I can control myself if it happens. Heck, I've waited forover 20 years to get a Monte, I sure don't want something to happen to it.
So many people have NO respect for others.

I personally don't like silver or white cars where I live. They blend into the snow to easily and if you do a quick glance you can miss them vs. a red, blueor green car.

Now I don't want to sound like a hipocrit because I own a black car which just blends in well with everything at night. BUT I also park out of the way or in areas where I am less prone to be hit.

Sorry to hear about your misfortune Epic.
I'm not a fan of white or silver cars. To easy to lose sight of in bright sunlight and snow. Plus I'm more of a red car guy. With blue or black being my back-up choices.
I know it's frustrating, but I would get the paint fixed. Other wise it'll start to look like a beater.


Hey Space...
What do they say about people with green eyes? I've tried to do a little research on this, but didn't find much.
