Love tap from a fuel truck!!

Thank the lord I gotta brush guard…

Yesterday morning I was parked on a patch of grass at what I THOUGHT was a safe distance from my company’s 4000 gallon Jet-A fuel truck.

While maneuvering the truck, an employee of mine didn’t quite see my LR and backed straight into it!!! He backed into it hard enough to stop the 40,000 pound fuel truck and actually slid my LR a couple of inches on the grass!!

Im thinking the worst... But, all that happened was the left side of the brush guard was pushed in a couple of inches! And we pulled it back out with the winch using a shackle and a strap!!

Considering the hit that it took, it defiantly would have had major damage to the front end if I didn’t have the brush guard!

Yes, the employee still has a job! and Im going to start parking even FURTHUR away from that thing!
Very Happy
