the last straw

well,i'm convinced that i'm not supposed to have anything in this world.i am only to work my *** to the bone for no apparent reason. this past sunday,my daughter backed her exploder out of the driveway,and plowed head long into my dually.the fender is destroyed,and the bed is buckled.also the bumper was slightly pulled out. DOES ANYONE WANNA BUY A 2001 F350 SD CC DUALLY CHEAP? I'M LETTING IT GO AS IS FOR 6000$

im sorry to hear about your situation. the up side is... everyone is okay,right? as much as i really love my trucks and toys, i love my family 1000 times more. they are not replacable. i bet your daughter feels terrible about this. you can fix your truck with the right replacement parts. its only money,but there is no amount of money that can repair a lost loved one (i know this for a fact) it will all get better with time my friend. dont let this get you down.-billy

Another alternative is to sell her into the slave trade then you get the money to fix the truck.

i would price out a used dually box complete,it would be easy to paint while its off the truck,and its an easy fix too.then keep all the good parts off your old damaged box,for future needs.
