Tag, you're doing it wrong.







Just kidding man, trying to make ya laugh. That sucks. Any frame damage? A hit like that can total a truck out. At least it didn't take out the stylin back window. :D That's where my Supra logo is too.

Yeah, I thought it had a chance at being totaled out. Secretly was kind of hoping it so I could go get a 2500HD. The Repair shop guy is going to give his work a lifetime garuntee though. No frame damage just body and Tranny plus Rear end about 10K in all.... Sadly i wont have my truck for 3 weeks

That could end up being a very expensive rental vehicle for the hitters insurance company...after all, you need something that can move your boat...

Good thing the tool box didn't go flying, I have seen them turn into projectiles. Sorry about the truck. I think they should of written it off so you could of replaced it with a Dodge!! ;)

Who in their right mind would trade a Chevy for a Dodge?


Thats what I was thinking- j/k (I have owned both makes and I prefer the GM) Glad to hear you are OK, that is the most important part.

Here goes the OT talk, the look on my dad's face when my first truck didn't come with a bowtie was followed by "Don't need to test drive it son...."
Glad everybodies in one piece, kinda shocked it wasnt a write off either, the body woulda been shook up something fierce.....

Yeah I'm a GM guy, should been specific when I said 2500hd is guess. I just was thinking everyone knew I was talking GM. The new dodge diesels are hell though. Since GM didn't keep Rita's to the Allison tranny.
