    See my reply.

    Just tell him. No way around it. And for the love of god, don’t say “please don’t be mad, or you are gonna be mad”. That makes guys mad. I would just say, I’m sorry, but I had an accident with our truck today. I’m taking care of everything.

    Eh, it’ll be alright. I once backed my Nissan Armada into my wife’s Tacoma in our driveway. It sucked and we were both pissed (for different reasons), but all was repaired.

    As above - Honesty is the best policy. Along with an apology. Once you’ve acknowledged and accepted any wrongdoing and apologized for it, there’s not much else the offended person can say.

    Maybe you could distract him? (This is starting to sound the the plot of a bad sitcom episode.)

    Seems like about a cool grand ($1000) to fix that in my opinion. Call the insurance company asap.

    Yikes. My wife thinks I love my truck more than I love her, so she would probably park it on the street and act like it got hit after she parked it. Then take that secret to her grave. Clever girl.

    Lmao!!! Idk how to individually reply to the smart ass asking if i knew how to log in , start a thread and post a picture. ITS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE, His information is linked to my phone thats how i logged in & he constantly checks this sight so i knew id be a good place to ask how to break the news to him & maybe get a quote on how to fix it. Trust me my husband isnt as pathetic as to pretend to be me when writing a post! Im also an active member on babycenter && we post threads all the time!

    Maybe more than $1K, but shouldn’t be more than $3k. Depending on your location.

    Brilliant! Park it in a fashion that he won’t see it. Then point out the damage “what the hell did you hit?”

    Just tell him. Hiding and asking people on here would piss me off. I should be the first to know.

    He will be upset, who wouldnt. But he knows accidents happen. We have all done stupid things on accident. Just tell him. nd don't get mad when packages for the truck start showing up!

    It’s all material possessions. It’s nothing more important that your safety. Just be honest.
    But if really don’t want to tell him, get a time machine, they’re great :thumbsup:
