Last night when I went to my car to drive to work, there was a nasty sharp dent in the hood where someone had backed into me. One of my neighbors had obviously backed into my car when parking or leaving. Of course there was no note or knock on my door.
From the height and shape of the dent, it was obviously caused by a truck or SUV with a trailer hitch mount. Two tenants in my building have trucks tall enough to have done this - an F150 and a Jeep Grand Cherokee. Last night when I got home from work, both were parked in places where there was no one behind them, so I was able to pull up and see which one matched the dent. The Jeep was a perfect match, and also had traces of red paint on the offenting trailer hitch bracket.
I don't know which apartment the girl who drives the Jeep lives in, so I left the following note taped to the inside of the front door to our building:
"Neighbors:
Yesterday, sometime between 4:30 PM and 9:30 PM, someone backed into the front of my car, the old red Honda, and left a nasty dent. Please do the right thing, come forward and take responsibility for your actions.
The dent just happens to be the height and shape of a trailer hitch mount on a truck or SUV. There are two such vehicles here..."
Should be interesting to see what, if anything, happens next.
