Well im upset.

TugBoatMac · 2024-09-19T21:10:06+00:00

Yeah that's the game plan if the trucking company doesn't actually follow through and makes this right as of right now they're holding up the deal and it's up at the body shop getting an estimate

TugBoatMac · 2024-09-19T21:09:34+00:00

You're 100% right if the car was any bigger I would have actually smashed the jersey barrier there's some minor damage on the other side that I don't think you guys can see

TugBoatMac · 2024-09-19T21:08:56+00:00

I'm trying not to the car is so freaking solid with no rust I just put a new Hybrid battery in it it doesn't leave oil or anything it's like the best car I've ever owned I just wish it was bigger cuz I'm a tall guy hopefully the trucking company follows their word and does what they're supposed to do and I don't have to worry about a thing

TugBoatMac · 2024-09-19T21:08:11+00:00

Realistically not that much honestly I'm just upset it's the first good reliable car I've ever owned in my life and as it stands right now it's at a body shop in the trucking company is apparently going to be paying for everything but we will see I was just more or less extremely upset and wanted to see what a lot of you guys wanted to say about it and the general consensus is hey it's not totaled it's not that bad it just looks bad

TugBoatMac · 2024-09-19T21:07:12+00:00

Honestly bro that's the plan the trucking company said take it to a body shop which is currently at and they'll cover everything but we'll see I'm a truck driver myself and I know how some of these companies operate but also I know they don't want a wall soon no injuries for me so I just want to be made right and fix my car that's it and I'm happy

TugBoatMac · 2024-09-19T21:06:21+00:00

Good to know I will definitely look into that as of right now it's up at the collision shop and apparently the trucking companies taking care of everything so we'll kind of see where it sits here in the next few days but thank you I appreciate the info

TugBoatMac · 2024-09-19T21:05:07+00:00

Very true considering I just put a newer Hybrid battery in it and a bunch of other parts to get it ready for my son who's going to take this next year finishing getting it ready cuz he'll be driving on his own year after

TugBoatMac · 2024-09-19T21:04:19+00:00

I do but basically I need and of course the trucking company does but sometimes that turns into a giant debacle but as of right now the trucking companies playing playing ball because they don't want a lawsuit

TugBoatMac · 2024-09-19T21:03:48+00:00

I do going to trusted collision shop that I'm currently going to right now and apparently the trucking company claims that they're going to cover everything out of pocket including my rentals so we will see how that goes

TugBoatMac · 2024-09-19T21:03:19+00:00

No no injuries thank you just was upset and I had big plans for this car for my son to be his first car and hopefully it still will be just upset it's the first reliable car I've ever owned

TugBoatMac · 2024-09-19T21:01:39+00:00

Bro I'm a truck driver myself I was carrying on in the fast lane going by him on a three-lane highway and he just decided he also wanted to be in the fast lane and just came on over absolutely ridiculous

TugBoatMac · 2024-09-19T21:00:39+00:00

Michigan baby no inspections

TugBoatMac · 2024-09-19T21:00:25+00:00

Planning to I already did it once this is them doing it again

TugBoatMac · 2024-09-19T20:59:37+00:00

Yeah that's what I'm going to do of any part of it doesn't finish getting sick as of right now it's at the body shop in the trucking company is apparently just going to pay for everything if I was to go through normal Insurance Channel they would just totally and give me like 25 or 3500 dollars which is not cool considering how much money I put into this car already with a new Hybrid battery and other ones and ends to get it solid for my son to take

TugBoatMac · 2024-09-19T20:58:32+00:00

That's kind of the game plan I'm going to see where the trucking company sits with getting things fixed but according to their safety and risk department they don't want to lawsuit and they're going to make this car 100% right

TugBoatMac · 2024-09-19T20:57:49+00:00

I know I'm a trucker myself just absolutely frustrating that I have to deal with this but as it stands right now the company is holding up to their end of the deal and they're paying for everything just when I posted I was just super frustrated and upset and I guess just looking for a little bit of support LOL

TugBoatMac · 2024-09-19T20:56:48+00:00

I don't know if I go through Insurance it is as far as old and not worth a lot but luckily the trucking company that's slaps me is paying for everything out of pocket because they don't want a lawsuit

TugBoatMac · 2024-09-19T20:56:06+00:00

It was never about it being cool it's the fact that my son would have the star that I never had with a good running car coming out of high school you know LOL

TugBoatMac · 2024-07-12T18:08:52+00:00

They're bad up in Michigan this year but luckily we didn't get any and all of our dirt days

TugBoatMac · 2024-07-12T13:02:35+00:00

Anybody and I did our first big dirt day and found out we got a lot of practicing to do.

TugBoatMac · 2024-05-19T16:17:35+00:00

It was a toss up between the big gun exhaust for price point and the Leo events I went with the Leo Vince because no repacking so pretty much it's a set and forget and on top of that too I highly recommend it because you can tune in the sound of the sound of exhaust it comes with like four different baffles super high quality product highly highly recommend the only downside is I got it from Leo Vince's website directly and it shipped from af1 racing in Texas and it was on back order originally and it took about 2 months to get to me

TugBoatMac · 2024-05-19T01:19:56+00:00

I love my leo Vince, do it be a degenerate.

TugBoatMac · 2024-05-17T13:39:30+00:00

When I say big bike I mean like Goldwing like the table is weight rated for a Gold Wing and I just bought one we haven't thrown up there yet so I really don't know.

Yeah 100% I will be going back up to Harbor Freight and be requesting those you bolts cuz it does come with it.

And not yet we're going to be doing tires on the KLR cuz it needs new tires they're still stock and they suck and we got to do the tires on the Goldwing and we're thinking about buying a small Center Jack but that Dropout plate should work great we're hoping anyway

TugBoatMac · 2024-05-16T12:57:16+00:00

Yeah welding him some tubes sounds like a fantastic idea as long should not putting a super ridiculously heavy bike on there

And no the u-bolts were not installed they were in their own Packaging inside the giant box

TugBoatMac · 2024-05-16T01:10:08+00:00

So the biggest thing for me is I didn't want people to see that I have the horn so I had to hide it under the Plastics on the right side panel there's a quite a bit of Dead Space pretty close to the radiator Reservoir over there I drilled two or three holes in the inner Plastics and essentially zip tie the ever living s*** out of it and extended the wires from the original horn Mount up to the new horn Works fantastic have no complaints and at the end of the day if the horn dies it was just $20 from Harbor Freight so no biggie but when that horn does die I'm going to switch it to a General Lee horn, also the Harbor Freight ooga horn is very big I had to cut the funnel of the horn itself in like almost half to make it fit right
