Mailbox got Run Over by a Frontier

img_3707OK, so the mailbox didn’t actually go down. In fact, it kind of won the battle. Here’s how it all unfolded:

It’s a normal evening. I’m just minding my own business, slowly cruising up to the front of the house where I usually stop–uneventfully– to grab the mail before pulling into the garage.

But not THIS day.

As I angled the car in for a parallel mail pick up, I hit a nice little patch of ice. The slickity-slick kept the angle going, resulting in mailbox and truck engaging in fisticuffs. Surprisingly, the mailbox won, leaving the Frontier a nice little dent in the hood to remember it by.

Man.

The Nissan website reads “Mid-size body. Can-do attitude.”

Pfffft. More like “Mid-size body. Mailbox Sissy*.”

*Oh, I’m sorry, baby. I didn’t mean it. I just have to write stuff, you know? I know it was all my fault. Why don’t we go for an off-road drive after a nice oil change. I’ll get you fixed in no time and make it all better. We still love each other, right? …Right?
