DH and I where driveing down towards base the other day, and he pointed out to me a truck with an interesting dent. The truck was pristen, except for the license plate. It was quite crunched in the middle. While Mikal started to muse about how that could happen, I grinned. Finaly I told him. It was a trailer that did the damage. There was the opening for a hitch under the bumper. And the dent in the licence plate had a rathure distinctive circle over a line mark in the crunch.

Mikal then tried to figure out how someone would back into a trailer *giggle*

Of course you know we don't have any of those dents in our license plate.  :yikes:

Not like this guy though. Looked like the trailer had punched his licence plate

I have to admit, I probably have a similar dent in my rear plate and I have no excuse. Just poor judgment while backing with no spotter. I often hook-up before my wife gets home from work. I usually stop well short of the trailer, then pull the trailer to the hitch ball and lower it. I guess I got sloppy once. :D

The guy that you saw may have had a large trailer that couldn't be pulled by hand. At least it was just the license plate and not a painted rear bumper that got damaged. :p

Funny thing you should mention something like this ...

Not too long ago, after one of our annual get-to-gethers, I was musing how a friend of mine had the same kind of a dent in his license plate. Kind of chuckled as to how he might have done that. Just got back from a few days stay up in the coolness of the mountains, and now I'm sporting one of those dents. Suppose it just does not pay to chuckle at another popup camper's mis-deeds! What did they call that ... karma ...?
