Default Boxless for a while :(

For those that dont know. I was involved in a hit & run Saturday while in Miami. Unfortunatly, the intake got smashed and stalled the engine, so I couldnt chase after the guy.
The hit came from a 2-tone red/gray S10. Right on the front drivers corner, where there is basically zero protection.
As of right know Im waiting for an adjuster to give me a damage estimate. Its sitting at a shop in Hialeah. Looks like the hood, driverside fender, bumper, grille, and headlights need replacing.

Doubt they will ever catch the guy. Waited around for over an hour for the cops to show up.

Ouch--sorry for your grief. Heard today about a lady who chased a hit and run driver down. She wound up being run over and dragged for 2 miles to her death. It ain't worth it........

Thanks guys. Thankfully, the front lip was only scratched.

We tried waving down people to help, but noone really gives a crap around there.

all that matters is that you're not hurt. the car can be replaced, you can't.

East Hialeah. Near 8th ave.

And I would say only 98% drive like that....lol
It isnt the fist time ive wrecked down there. Some old lady cut me off next to the Home Depot on 49th street. Cut across 4 lanes to get into the winn-dixie and I t-boned her Impala. That was when I had my J30.
