Angry Think it will buff out?

The other day I get hit by this driver that swerved across 3 lanes and slammed into the the righthand side. Makes the truck spin and as I got to the curb the truck rolls over and then I get hit a second time by the same driver. All side curtain airbags deployed, glad they are part of our safety features. A lot more damage shows in other pics I have.Going to have frame checked too.

First spot hit

From rolling onto side

Final damage spot
Waiting for the insurance to see if they will total it. If they do, then the search starts for another F350.

They'll total that, for sure. They're just too expensive to fix. Glad you're ok..

I dont know. You could always get in the bed and try to push the panel back out gently with your hand.

You could then bondo anything that isnt popped out. There is spray paint at Autozone that is dulicate colored.














Kidding, that thing is totalled. Glad everyone is ok.

Thats crazy! So he hit you once then took off and on your way home rolls and hits you again? How much time had passed between the first incident?


Edit- I got it, you meant curb not crib 😆

That looks totaled to me. If they do fix it I wouldn't want it because it'll never be the same.

How many miles are on the truck? Does it have a 4.30 gear?

Definitely totaled! Glad you're OK!


I'd buy it back, throw a cab from a '80's-90' truck on it, shorten the wheelbase, and make it a trail rig!

There is not a straight panel left on that truck. Good to hear that you were not injured.

Don’t count on them writing it off. My 99 was 6 months old when it was hit and rolled over. I paid a little over 30k for the truck and it went into the dealership in Cheyenne and the repair bill was 22k. I flew up to Cheyenne in a C-130 to drive it back home. The repair work was so bad, the truck went back into the shop in San Diego for another 15k worth of work. Truck was never right and had continuous issues so I traded it in in 2001 for my 02.

Pretty sure if the air bags go off the insurance companies don't want the liability so they total.

I think there was another member here that posted some extensive damage including a flop and insurance fixed it. I could be wrong on the details but there should be a thread including photos after fixing it somewhere around here.
