that was what I was thinking, it sure looked like it had moved. It looked like the pickup front bumper hit my front tire and spring. just wanted to be sure, and make sure it gets looked at for repair.

Nice looks like it totaled the Chevy... too bad you have a bent u-bolt and some scratches on you bumper... I know what vehicle I would rather be in. The one not involved.
