Yeah, thats to bad, don't know if I would want to go see it in that bad of shape either. I would just want to think of it off in its next phase of life with out me, and just remember the good times.

One of those moments that you wish you could take back.

Sadly she's gone...but it's clear that you've not forgotten her.
Hope you one day find a truck that you enjoy as much as you did old Copper

Thanks guys! It's great to know that there are ppl out there i can tell this story to and the can relate or feel for me. any more these days you tell someone about ur misfortune and all you get is that sucks or you *******. They dont relise that the situation was out of my hands and was just a freak accident. I know ppl say things happen for a reason but fu^&. hell me and my x split up and the bit$# stole that 93 my bother gave me and scrapped it. So needless to say next time im out that way there will be vengence. Lost 2 trucks in a yr. cant do ne thing about copper but blue, ha better pray that i dont see that fu$(%* bronco nikki! Revenge is gonna be sweet

But seriously, I echo the sentiments of the others pointing out nobody was hurt. I think pulling Copper out of the river and getting her all dried out is step number 1.

See if your local chapter of FTE can get together for the extra-riverine resurrection. Many hands make light work.
