Good people

Recently, my parked Dodge Ram truck was hit and the driver's side mirror was torn off. The guy who did it left his name and number behind.

Over the past few weeks, I've been trying to hunt down a replacement mirror and cover but have had no luck. This was a cost-saving measure; a used mirror and cover were probably going to be about $100. A brand new OEM unit - because these are heated mirrors - is in the neighbourhood of $360.

Well, as stated, we found nothing. So, I've been stuck driving around with a duct-taped mirror on my truck.

Eariler this week, I got a phone-call from the Dodge dealer telling me that the guy who ran into my truck had bought me an entirely new OEM mirror and all I had to do was pick it up.

Apparently, there's still good people in this world. Not only did he leave his contact information, but he paid for the replacment part in full. Pretty darn awesome.
