It was as expected that he jumped out of the car and blamed my negligence for the damage to his "car I could never imagine owning". I drove away from the situation in an SUV with the front end of my vehicle looking like a smashed soda can. There was a slight bend on the base of this "battering ram," but nothing that was going to keep it in the shop for more than a couple of days. This is a fantastic program!

This is no exception to the saying that presentation is everything. I very much appreciated the efficient use of the box, which was packed like a puzzle and was very easy to unbox!
