My 2018 just got hit at my work by an 18 wheeler, best part is he just kept going, had to contact the shipping company and request his info. So salvage or no salvage? if you look close it appears it went pretty deep, possibly tweaked the rear frame

Did the truck driver claim he didn't know he hit your car? o_O

Really sorry to hear this bad news. Hopefully you'll be happy/satisfied with how this is handled.

Working around trucks I'm not sure how he couldn't have noticed that fender bender.....idiot. Why does it look like from the edge of the door and throughout the rear quarter is bent? Or is that just the body lines on the s550's?
Regardless sorry to hear it man. Did you see it happen or catch it on video? @T56LS102

If it wasn't a compact space the tuck would of not hit it?? lol So I made a police report, we have it on film, driver just called me through my work on his cell literally crying that his company just fired him and he is being charged with hit and run, he told me his family depends on him having a truckers lic. and if i could drop the charges lol, I told him that when you hit someones car, you STOP and find out who the owner is, needles to say I am happy it was caught on film and the driver is coming clean. Police are coming tomorrow to review the film at 9am, I told the driver to meet me at work tomorrow at 9am and we can talk it over lol

Yep. I had a semi side swipe me a couple of years ago. I chased down the driver and he was willing to do just about anything to have it not reported. He got canned and the owner of the company wrote me a check for the full amount of the damages.
