He hit dead center on the front. Only cosmetic damage though. Didn't even crack the radiator. I may even post the before and after.
Well, a guy pulled out in front of me and I swerved to keep from hitting him. I hit a patch of ice instead. I had no idea that you sped up to a million miles per hour when you hit ice. A little Ford Ranger doesn't handle ice very well.
