Default Just backed my TTR into a telephone pole

It happened when a bunch of people at a club were admiring the TT. As I was saying "thank you", I forgot about the pole that I was trying hard to remember. A small amount of damage to the big plastic "bumper"... the piece that holds the license plate and the TT emblem.... you know.

Its causing me a great deal of pain at this late hour....

Default Been there, Done that

But fortunately for me it was only a '71 chevy pickup and a tree. But, I had 5 guys in the truck that sat back there and watched me back into it. Was out at a campground.... oh well. But yes, it's totally more embarrassing than the fact that you did some damamge.<p>Tom Boucher
