I am so disgusted......
I got "dinged" this morning in the MINI.
First time this winter. It's way to early to be "dinged".

Don't forget to checkout paintless door repair. Shop around some are half the cost of others and as good or better. A simple door or fender ding should not run more than $25-50.

Living in Phoenix, we LIVE for days that we can wear a sweater! We have 9 months where we are over 90 and about 5 of them we are over 100.

'Tis not a problem, move us where you must. I've been moved and merged before, all pretty painless.
I suspect, though, that all this talk of dings and such is just nonsense for folks out in West Los Angeles anyways....
