That sucks, and I can relate. I got my 76 Coupe de Ville back from the paint shop in a beautiful cinnamon firemist, and some jerk went all the way around it with a key
the same night I brought it home.....

Is that 2500 per truck? Wouldn't this be considered one claim?

Yesterday on her way to Galveston, Monica saw a cop hauling ass down highway 6 with spray painting that said "Fuk Pigs"

Damn, that will be some costly repair!! That sucks, and I don't get ****bags that do shit like that!1

Have you guys had any tailgates stolen? The Ford dealer here had 18 tailgates stolen off of Superduties. Mine was one that was stolen, and had to have a new one put on.

It will be one claim, but the fact that we have to pay $2500 because of some douche bags is pretty shitty.

No, we lock them before they go on the lot for that very reason.

A tail gate with the camera and step cost almost $10k.

Might want to offer them up at a discount. I know I would have no issue getting a proper discount and keep the scratch. It's a vehicle, not an idol.

Tailgate - $790
Step assy - $1300
Applique - $895
Roller - $15
Insert - $65
Liner - $75
Latch - $40
Handle - $95
Support cable - $32
Camera - $390
Emblem - $219
Texas Emblem - $95
Mount - $150
Paint & labor - $2500

So it is about $7k, not $10k.

2500 dollars to make it right, sucks...but it's the cost of doing business.

spend the money on insurance premiums & deductibles...or hire a night guard...

We do spend the money on insurance. It doesn't excuse some assholes for damaging property though.

$2500 for LABOR & paint. There is a lot of assembly and programming.
