Sorry to hear that brotha. Glad no one was hurt tho. Truck totalled?

 

[adsm08]

If someone did that to mine it wouldn't be a "no one got hurt" deal, it would be "I then promptly proceeded to break the idiot's face it 17 places".

Glad you aren't hurt though.

y only 17 places ? it was the idiot that just had to make a right turn but to do so they had to slam on their brakes and peel out around the turn .. so the person in front of me had to slam on the brakes then i had to lock them up and barely tapped the truck in front of me then the guy hit me..


i will post pics as soon i get them

Good to hear nobody was hurt in the accident...

Trucks can be fixed or replaced...hopefully...I read where some of the newer frames are actually 2 pieces...I would think it would be possible to remove twisted metal and put on a new section...but I also know that twisted metal needs a lot of work...

So...working in a body shop will be a big help and you can have it back together in no time...

Wouldn't take much to total a '94. Mine was about the same age when 12 hail dings totaled it.

If the frame is bent it is just icing on the cake...

Sorry to hear about it, it sucks.

As far as the insurance company is concerned it is totaled, I would bet money on it. It isn't worth 15 hours of labor, let alone parts.

Maybe/probably you can buy it back for scrap value and fix it since you have access to a body shop, and more importantly, their contacts.

I figure that's as far as I'd get before I wouldn't have any knuckles left.

And of course I wouldn't go after the person who hit me if someone else did something stupid to cause the accident.

It just sucks when someone else is the cause and it could've all been prevented. But glad nobody got hurt. Hope they can do something for ya too.

sorry to hear it

The guy that hit yo likley go thte ticket, at fault?

My wife was driving and we were at the back of the line when a gal braked hard for no apparent reason. The car behind the wacky beyotch her hit her, then the next hit it then we slid in last. If we had a witness she could have been charged with illegal lane usage, but they wouldn't listen to the three drivers over her. Our insurance wnet up and I halfway fixed our old Explorer and pocketed the insurance money.

You may be able to take the salvage on your rig and the collision claim if you are covered, get a salvage title and fix it. Might even be able to afford a couple upgrades. Make lemonade out of lemons...............

only damage is
front and rear bumper and brackets
left bed side
left rear spring
and left tail light and mud flap

pretty much just pull and replace parts

 

[Andy D]

Yah, Just needs new body parts. If there was frame damage, the bed wouldn't look right at the cab. Prolly still get totaled
