Not to make light out of it...and I hope all is okay--- That 2nd photo looks like the truck has one of those "Snidley Whiplash" mustache things going on. Like an evil grin.

The same thing happened to one of the managers I deal with for work. She lost control on black ice and went head first into a light pole. Total loss for the car. Thankfully all she suffered was a black and blue mark from the seat belt. If not for the belt? She would have been tossed out the windshield.

It's all good all she got is a very slight black eye. Can't see it unless you really look. My moms been calling it the red crab lol
 
Glad she is ok.

I'll give her this much tho... she managed to hit that tree almost dead center :)

Wow, that's nuts! Glad she's okay.

But, it actually looks salvageable. It didn't hit the frame where the crumple zones are so you SHOULD be able to rebuild that beast.
 
It still runs. I drove it back Out off the drive way. They plan is to fix it. So I'm looking for parts if anyone has any
 
Yikes, glad she is ok, stupid trees and power poles just jump out in front of people. Looks like as others have said pretty repairable unless the frame was bent then it may be a larger problem. I know they have companies that can straighten frames but they can never get them perfect from what I've heard.
 
glad to hear she is ok. look on the bright side, there is a donor rig for a 4.0 swap! and the d35/8.8
 
Like dad says its made out of steel, he can fix it lol This weekend we will start to rip into it and see what we have to work with
 
Did you try washing and buffing that spot LOL.
