Well, it all happened so quick, and since it was a logging truck, it
didn't occur to me that what I saw bouncing was a piece of metal! I
thought I had a fighting chance against a chunck of wood, and I could
tell it probably wasn't going to get high enough to get my windshield,
so I wasn't as scared as I probably should have been. I was initially
mad as a hornet that the guy hadn't cleaned his truck well enough to get
that piece of "wood" off of it!
Just to let you know the extent of damage a one foot piece of metal can
do to a Yukon XL, my repair estimate is in excess of $4,000.00 . . . .
