someone scraped up my Z this morning

They got a piece of the wheel and the bumper...I don't understand how. Then I was so pissed on my drive to work that I parked next to a curb and ****** up my passenger side wheel.

Not a good start to my day. Gotta stay positive so I don't lose my sh*t

KingZee: Sounds like a crappy start, but like the others said. Hopefully the damage is minor, and an easy fix.

Damn man. It's one thing to scrape your own stuff, but it's entirely another whe nsomeone else does it. Are there any surveillance cameras near where that happened? Sorry for the way your day started.

Off-topic, but made me think of my Forum Fellows (you know who you are):

I dont understand why it so hard for people to park or pull out of a parking spot. My girlfriends car had been hit a dozen times in parking lots since we moved to Vegas several years ago. Ive been lucky with my cars but my work truck seems to get dinged all the time. Casino parking lots are far worse than any other lot, too many old people that shouldn't be driving or too many drunks. I try not too drive the Z in the evenings when most of the lot accidents happen but its too much damn fun not to drive.

I almost always park away from everyone. This doesn't protect me from malice of course.

Anyone got thoughts on the Evans Waterless Coolant?

So is this for trucks or cars?

Trucks, cars, motorcycles or whatever. It's expensive, but it's supposed to prevent corrosion and makes your hoses last longer. Some claim lower oil temps and better fuel economy.
