to see those front ends smacked up like that.
My last car (2.7) had 1000 miles on it when a 42,000 lb garbage truck pushed me sideways up on a highway cement barrier. The only way out was to crawl though the sunroof. I then got bear hugged by the garbage man who was amazed that he hadn't killed me. When the cops and firemen came they couldn't stop talking about how nice and how strong the car was. End result,$10,500 in damages,$1,500 for a rental car.
So thankfully all of you are okay, and only the cars have the boo boo's.
Now about that new front end...I think even in a light touch situation, like another car backing up into a parking spot, the front grille and bumper are susceptible to damage.
