Did a tank hit you? That's a ton of damage to a truck that's pretty solid! Glad that you were able to walk away.

Wow!

You, sir, are lucky to be alive!

Plus, they found another health issue (lucky for you!) while checking you out.

I hope you plan to be in church on Sunday...

Glad you walked away and have a story to tell!

I do love your purple truck, though! If I could have had a choice, that is what I would have.

Wow! Glad you made it out, bud! Beautiful truck!

PS: I'm in San Antonio, too. Anything from that truck that's salvageable that I can use on mine?

Sorry guys, I didn't see these until just now. The accident happened in Lacy Lake View just North of Waco, I was driving to my house to clean it up for sale. I had made a trip to SA with my trailer and did a turn around making for a 8 hour drive after having been up for 12 hours prior. I decided that I'm not as young as I used to be.

If you rub the dents with dry ice, then use a blow dryer to heat it up. The dents should pop right out. I read this on the internet so it must be true

Default Been a while

Well, it's been quite a while but I finally have an excuse to return to the forums. I bought a 2004 Lariat yesterday. Pics to follow. I may have to change my user name though.
