i came around a corner in second and the rear end swung around, sending me into a dimension of p o'd i've never been in my life. my 36's caught a snow bank and flipped it over 1.5 times. the fenders hood bumper, grill, and flatbed are still mint... but the cab is smashed down and buckled. let alone 25 gal. of premium down the drain!!!

Wow. That sucks. Glad your OK. When my friend rolled his truck down a hill the roof caved in and whacked us in the heads. We were lucky since neither of us were wearing our seat belts(everyone's invincable when they are 18 
). All we had was a headache. Was there anything salvageable? Pics?

My step son took my truck with out my permission about 2 months ago.
I quess he wanted to take it joy riding, hit an elm tree and rolled my truck too. He's fine. my truck front axle completely broke in half, shock absorber complete ripped off, and every side of the truck has body damage. All window shattered.
Haven't gotten around to really taking a look at the destruction , yet, but I'm just going to use the truck as a pick and pull part truck, then scrap the rest of the truck. I think the frame is bent too. He never apologized for the wreck.
