last week I was making a left hand turn and a woman driving a new suburban ran a red light and hit me doing around 50mph...

Im fine, just bruised up a lil bit. but my truck... not so much.

just pisses me off... I had a lot into this truck and only had about 1000 miles on it since I put it back together. I hadn't driven it in weeks but it was a nice afternoon so I thought id take it for a quick spin before she went away for the year for major changes...

time for a fresh start i guess...

That sucks about your truck. Hope that you get as much from insurance as possible.

damn dude, sorry to hear about the truck and glad to know your doin good, I hate when people dont pay attention or fall asleep, a guy fell asleep and totaled my DD earlier this summer, it sucked so much
 
Glad to hear you're ok. If that were my truck I would have put 2 in head her head at the scene for that shit. I have had so many close calls with people being dumb like that.

I was questioning frame damage until I saw the roof buckled some. So it's almost definitely bent. What are your plans for a new project? Another Dime?
 
yeah the frame is bent... luckly (for impact reasons) i was riding real low and she actually went over my frame... jacked alot more sheetmetal up but it observed the impact more rather then if it was frame to frame

Im looking for basically any 2wd pickup or suv... I kinda wanna do a 4 door blazer, but im also looking at some 2 door tahoes that are in Texas.

Im flying down there soon to visit family, so I may just buy a ride there and drive it back lol
 
glad your okay
the truck can be replaced.

doesnt insurance suck?

you should have gotten way more than 3k IMO

yes insurance sucks... if i had gotten it appraised though I wouldve easily gotten around 5-6k for it

itd never sell for that much, custom trucks never sell for what theyre worth, but thats how much i SHOULD of got... my fault though. I know better now
 
damn man, glad your in one piece, i hope you get something decent out of the insurance and consider it a new beginning... losing something you put a lot of work into always seems to hit the hardest.
