Cant catch a break

Im serious, mon my mirror and just right now this? Hasn't been a freaking month since I bought her!

 

You ok?

 

it sure is. This really blows man...when I felt the hit I thought it was a small fender kiss only to see smoke and blood and the ladies inside the van half passed out. I feel sorry for them they looked pretty banged up im just happy I got uninsured motorist coverage just last week as I think I saw Mexican license plates but im not 100% on that. Hope they are okay...poor older ladies

 

sorry I guess I missed the comment. yes im fine thank you. really didn't feel much of it. medics wanted to take me to the hospital im like what the fk for? im fine, take the ladies...sad part is I was just going a block and a half down the road to pick up lunch here from work. figured the drizzle would pick up soon and didn't want to get caught in the rain so I took the truck...shoulda walked I knew it

 

let me snap. truck works and doesn't make any kind of noise so im guessing it was no big deal, seems like that 7in lift came in handy

 

this is so true.

Op this sucks man.

 

na it took about 40 min, got my case number and im back at work

 

damage is not as bad as it looks. The truck did its job. time for a steel bumper now. still have the paper tag on it

 

I think a found some bent chasis. I hope wrong let me see if I can get a good shot tailgate has A hard time opening and closing also

 

there is an arch in the bed like a lump idk if you can see it

 

this is the bend I found I think the hitch receiver bent that. im not sure I think im just freaking out

 

fixable? do I even want it fixed or a new truck? I wonder if that black beast with red stripes I saw here the other day is still up for grabs..a SEMA truck I think

pshh well there goes that, just saw it was a 2014 post

 

Fixable o yes my friend. New bed out of the deal too I bet.

 

Stay strong, glad to see you are doing well. You can always get another truck, being safe is the main reason I drive my Tundra. Totally blows that it did happen

 

don't know, ill be heading over to allstate after work. I haven't even seen an adjuster for my mirror claim...shitty service from the company and they want to cover the mirror under collision when it was a hit and run clearly covered by uninsured motorist. Anyways, the driver wasn't able to say anything, half passed out all she said was "ayudame no, no me puedo mover, sacame" Spanish for help me, I cant move, get me out of here. i was about to help her out when i noticed blood all over her legs and feet didn't want to get sued for anything so i just waited for the cops. freaked out cuz there was smoke and a burning smell. I don't see skid marks,i don't think she even braked

 

That sucks. I have a friend who's F-250 got rear ended the same way. The frame was slightly out of wack and to his surprise his insurance totaled it. Truck was 8 years old though. He bought it back and put a new bumper on it. He has been driving now for six months and says he can't tell any noticeable difference.

 

I'm sorry that happened brother. At least you are OK, though I know, it's easy for me to say.

Everything will work out somehow!

 

looks like you won that battle though.

 

Might just be me, but doesn't the gap between the box and cab look a bit tight in the crash pic? Was there any contact between them? Is the gap equal on both sides now?

 

I noticed that too. My younger brother used to be a claims adjuster for Farmers. He was pretty good about finding issues that were not immediately apparent although sometimes the damage may look worse than it really is.
