Technically not "what did you do to your vehicle today", but rather "what did you do to your dad's vehicle yesterday":

After convincing my dad that it's not safe to drive, and better leave that to me, I was driving back to my parents' place with my dad.

With utmost grace, I reversed his RAV4 into the garage with speed and precision, and then closed the garage door.

We watched in horror as the garage door crunched into the front bumper. Right in front of our eyes.

It hit the car so hard that it stalled and jerked around a bit. In a panic, I hit the garage door button again to open it again.

Crunch, jerk-jerk-jerk.

I looked at my dad. He just had a blank look on his face. I wasn't sure what he was feeling.

I panicked again. BANG! jerk-jerk-jerk.

Finally I gathered enough clarity to just back the car up, off of the garage door.

We went to go look. The garage door had driven a metal tab into the car. The gouges were deeep into the plastic of the bumper.

"Hey dad... got any touch-up paint?"
