Did your truck not beep at you when backing up into that pole?

It did beep then went away, it was a short bent pole that other ppl had hit before. I missed the pole backing up. When the sensors went off I went forward to the side a bit since I didn't see nothing and that's how I hit the truck.. the hit/scrape was from the tire out to the bumper.. I lil more the other way and I woulda not damaged anything : (

It looks bad in person

Mine got damaged a few weeks ago. $2300 in damage. That'll meet the threshold for an accident report on the Carfax.
It's a lease so it looks like I'll be returning it. I was considering buying it out but the repaint and accident report made the decision for me.

Take it to a shop
Seems to be a lot of this going around lately. Hope it's back to new quickly!


Thanks everyone for responses
I'll be posting the update when I get it repaired!
Hopefully dropping off tomorrow and body shop said I will have it back by end if the week he said!
But realistically body shop u triple the time they tell you for deadline lol I've learned that over the years! I'm about to hit 12k miles in my ram :(

Ill be driving my Jag STR meanwhile :D
