Edit - Bad language in video so be careful watching it at work



Guy hand builds sports car, takes it on first drive, and some a**hole backs into it, and claims he didnt even see it.

Could have been worse, but sucks nonetheless.

Definitely sucks, but if the guy that backed into the car stopped and gave his insurance info I can't hate on him too badly. I doubt it was in purpose.

If it was fraud, the guy wouldn't have shouted obscenities to try and warn the dude. Dude is in a HUGE Expedition. "I didn't see it" ...wellll DUHHHHHHHHHH. He's probably a nice guy thank goodness but don't go around buying an abnoxiously large car without knowing how to handle it.



I've had this happen to me in Home Depot. Went about the same way. All of the cars that hit me were SHUUUGGGEEE SUV's, one even had a bull bar. When they know it's their fault they get real pissy too!

im guessing the camera was on to record the first drive.. as it was stationary and pointing forward.. the expedition was backing out of a spot.. the car was low so kinda in a 'blind' spot.. just backed right into it..



i doubt he would just stage his car to get hit.. specially when it was JUST built and lookin' brand new..

That sucks ass.







Crush the expedition, that is a conservative dude in suburbia. There's no way that it has ever been off road.

Expeditions carry most of a hockey team worth of kids and all their gear. Crush nothing, it's a sports UTILITY vehicle eh.

^Not in the district. They use them for groceries and drive-thru's.



If kids were in hockey teams, swim teams, or any sport ute worthy destination, they'd be getting into colleges. That's not happening.
