Not a semi but a young guy in an older S10 that tried to pass me on the right shoulder of the road. Unfortunately there was a new Chevy Yukon parked on the shoulder so he wedged his S10 between my trailer and the Yukon. The damage to my trailer required Pace Trailers to replace the entire right side paneling. The responding CHP charged him with DUI and assault on me and the Officer, then took him to jail.

His insurance paid for the repairs to my trailer, and they totaled the Yukon.

If I was you I would have the panels replaced.

Well its a 53 ft trailer extra tall and the back 4 panels are scratched up bad. No screws in the trailer all glued and the overlap, so I assume the entire side would need to be re done.

The local trailer dealer replaced two panels on mine. You couldn't tell that they had ever been replaced.
