new bumper?
So Ms. Slothrop was in an accident last week -- someone plowed into the car behind her, knocking it into her car. I suspect we need a new bumper, and was under the impression that once they've been struck with force, they lose their shock-protective capacities to some degree. But Ms. Slothrop took the car, which is about four years old and not a Saab, FWIW, to the dealer today, and the guy there scoffed at her question and said the bumper was fine. This was without much inspection of said bumper, and this fellow has scoffed at her before -- in her view, he would rather not talk to women, at least about their cars -- so we are not comforted. Anyone think we need a new bumper?
