Lots of serious comments in this thread, but all I could think when I saw the pictures was "duh, idiot doesn't know that you can't make a F300 by adding two F150s together..."

It broke the front rim and part of the rim went up and over the other part. Bent the fork legs back, dented the rear rim so bad that you could put your had between the rim and the tire. It was her 2017 Harley Road Glide Special.

She slid about 50 yards down the interstate, wearing full riding gear. She ended up with on her left side, a broken clavicle, 3 broken ribs, and a broken wrist. On the right side a sprained ankle. four spots of road rash, each about the size of a quarter. Took her home from ER Trauma center 12 hours after she went in.

She is healing well, and we are very fortunate that that is all that happened to her. She a ready has a new bike, and its being custom painted again for her so it will be ready when she can ride again.

Standard for the 6.0 powerstrokes. Takes all of about 35 mins to lift the cab off, to do any major engine work-(heads,studs,ect.)

Mine was wrecked on 1/11/17 and the gap just issued the check on Friday. With any luck I might get $500 of the $860 back from my last payment.
