Looks like the curse is not only for the STOTM.

I just wrecked my ranger on black ice coming home from Portland today. My GF and I are fine. As far as the ranger I couldn't have wreck it any better. The only thing I did was smash the Left side and wrapped the bumper around the frame but the frame looks straight so no totaling. I'll post pics tomorrow when I get it back from the towing company. I hit it when I went over a bridge and my truck went side ways. I followed what everyone told to do when you slide. went slow and turned it left, then right, then left, then into the bank. Luckily a Navy reserve guy in full uniform was following us and gave us a ride home.
 
Glad you & GF are okay !! We have signs posted that "water freezes before roadway" before going on a bridge-
 
Glad Ya'll are O.K.........sucks having to fix the truk....but you-two are the most important!!!!! Give the soldier a salute for us!
 
Sounds like you should swap to a mid 30s ford truck body now, don't think anybody has done it before but would be sweet lol.
 
What a shame. glad you and your gf are ok.
better be careful when driving on ice and snow. we cant afford to loose Rangers!
 
i wrapped my truck around a couple small trees 2 months ago... atleast im still able to DD mine, untill the stupid heater hose tee broke...

That's all that happened.
Time to start looking for body parts.
And I guess I didn't bend my bumper as bad as it looked that night.
 
not too bad, can we get a picture with the fender/grille/bumper removed? lets see what the core support looks like. funny how it looks like my first ranger after it was involved in a hit and run, it was fixed though..
