Angry I wrecked my truck this morning.

I was going around a turn when a deer ran out in front of me, I hit the brakes and swerved to miss it. But I ended up launching up a pile of rocks and going through a tree. I know the radiator cracked, because as I was trying to drive off the rocks it burst and drained all the coolant. Along with my frond end and passenger side need to be replaced. I have to wait until Wednesday to find out what the insurance wants to do with her. It was a sad morning.

Yeah, I'm alright, just really sad that I did this to my baby. I'm actually pretty sure that they are going to total it out, because my frame is coming out of the bumper and my driver side rear wheel is not spinning. Time to upgrade and get the '09 and take some much care of her.

So I just got a call from the insurance, and they are going to total out the truck. But that just means it's time for me to find a new F150.
