R.I.P. 2001 Excursion

Well, My Ex is no more. during one of our light rains out here in the Las Vegas, I was going to my job site, and I was broad sided my a mercedes S-class. She hit the front pass side wheel running a red light. The impact was enough to spin the ex into the curb, rolling it. God bless airbags and seatbelts ( I am amazed that I was actually wearing it, although I am a seat belt fanatic right now.) So it dead, and THANK GOD FOR GAP INSURANCE!!!!!!!!!!!! cause I was 6 grand flipped. LOL

I am probably gonna get a 1 ton pickup, so I will not be on this forum very much anymore. I want to say thanks for all the posts that helped my fix my Ex when it was down.

Thanks

Chris
ps. I have a 2005/6 front bumper and grille that I can not use anymore, so if anyone is interested PLEASE pm me. I could use the space in my garage. its the xt front end, so its easily paintable cause I wanted to keep my sport frontend.

Unfortunately I don't have any picks of the Ex. before or after. Never really got into pic of my vehicles. The Mercedes faired WAY better than my truck did. some majot damage to the front end, but not intrusion to the Cab at all. My friend works at the body shop that the car is at, but damn thing was one of the armored tank cars. ohh well, everyone is okay, I am a little stiff, but there insurances (geico) is taking car of everything, they even giving me high book on my truck. I am truely amazed.

Racer, I bought a Ram 3500 dually, but I am probably gonna pick up a f150 crewcab, for the fun running around. So I should be popping through now and again.

For those that PM me on the bumper, I will get pics sent out as soon as I get another digital camera.
