    Hope you're okay. There is never a good time to have an accident, especially when such a NICE vehicle is involved. Makes me appreciate the little slice of life that I still have left...

    Yeah, I am fine... Irritated, but fine... Was amazed how stinky air bags are. (and glad they weren't the takata shrapnel bags!) Stiff armed the impact so hard, the airbag never touched my face. Needless to say my arms are a bit sore today! Gotta try to find a replacement vehicle now, which sucks, I loved that truck. Shopping to replace a vehicle you didn't want to replace isn't my idea of fun. Wear your seat belts kids!

    No semi, 03 Chevy pickup... Gave myself a shin splint stomping the brakes so hard, guessing the old dodge was nose diving pretty hard when the impact happened

    My guess is yes... Kbb puts it around 23k, and the passenger front wheel isn't where it's suppose to be, (obviously so) but there is some pretty funny binding going on, the drivers rear wheel to wheel well is all goofy, there is 3-4" too much suspension now, so I am guessing frame is twisted up pretty good. I kinda hope they total it, it's got enough damage that I don't think I want it back at this point

    Glad you're okay, that looks like it was a pretty hard impact! It sucks to lose a truck you liked, but remember that vehicles are replaceable, you are not.

    Damn straight…sucks major balls to lose a vehicle (especially one you love), but sucks even more to be stuck with a lifetime of pain and suffering. Don't even know ya, but really glad you're still in one piece!
    Ragin' full on...
