Well had to plow it into a jersey barrier to avoid an oncoming car last nite.


Im alive, I'm not hurt so that's all that matters.

Exactly. It was that barrier or a head-on collision with a car moving atleast 45mph. Combined with my 20mph it would've sucked cause there wasn't alot of *** in that truck. I was coming across a bridge after getting off the highway and the car was coming straight at me..just one of them things that you got to move or get fucked up. Unfortunately it wasted my truck but I'm uninjured and not in the hospital.

There are more trucks out there. You can always start over. People are harder to replace.

My vote:
New frame, same bent up sheetmetal maybe straightened out a little with a BFH. Man what a sleeper that would be. Then again you could buy a straight truck with a stock engine, paint a goofy stripe on the side and tell everybody how fast it is. ha ha ha couldn't resist that one. sorry.
