After having my GT500 for almost a year and putting 14K on her, I finally ran out of luck. Was N. bound on 95 in N.C., heading home from Fla. A semi pulling a flatbed trailer was in front of me and the driver had tools and other materials on the flatbed, w/o any cover. As luck would have it and before being able to get past him, some metal piece came flying off the back, took one bounce and hit the car. I initally thought it hit the undercarriage and felt I'd dodged the bullet. At the next gas stop I saw that it had destroyed the drivers side headlight and bucket as well as putting a 4" long gash on top of the LF fender above the light. I guess I was lucky as it surely would have penetrated the windshield, has it struck it. I'm really sick about it but I guess it could have been worse. My real concern is the deterioration of responsible drivers on the road and the truck driver who would not secure his load when drivng on an interstate. I have really notice the lack of courteous truck drivers over the many years of traveling back and forth to Fla. They now seem to think they can drive 80+ MPH with impunity and have no problem sitting in the left lane, if they are traveling below the speed limit, forcing you to pass on the right, despite a courteous blip of the lights to request he move over. After having spent a month in Germany last September, and drivng the autobahn, I can only say that they have got it right. Trucks stay in the right lane, do not speed and are COURTEOUS!! Sorry for the rant but I have noticed that trucker's driving habits and professionalism has taken a dive over the years. My dad, who traveled extensively, during the 50's and 60's bemoaned the change he saw when traveling in the 90's, prior to his death. Long story short, it will cost $1000.00 to repair the Shelby and I'll have it done in a few days. Comprehensive will cover it short the $100.00 deductable. If there are any professional truck drivers on this site I welcome your input. I just think my observations are credible and if I'm wrong,I'm more than happy to hear other's opinions. Thanks for listening and I hope I haven't offended anyone.
