I have no idea what to say , that had to be the worst feeling in the world. I watched in horror as my brand new, never had gas in it yet,on the way home from Sears where I bought it Lawn tractor (top of the line to boot) cut the strap on a piece of sharp metal and fell OFF,off ,off the trailer at 50MPH. I actually seen my stomach leave my body through the end of my toes. Thought I'd thow up. But give it to sears, a couple hours in the paint shop and she was as good as new. Real sorry to hear about your truck

i would have cried, i almost cried when i blew the capri's engine in august. but like i told sara, no matter what happens to her i will pick up the pieces and put her back together

we all feel for you brother.

best thing i know to do is to salvage as much as you can and rebuid it, at least thats what i would do.

I would have crapped my pants, then I would have cried!! That had to be a horrible thing to watch.

I know you could get another one, but I would have to rebuild it, I know you will need some time to digest all of this.

SORRY to hear about this and the pictures are very sobering to say the least. Best wishes in your decisions. But I am glad to hear no one got hurt!!!,...........it's still sad tho,.....
