What the hell was that guy thinking? Glad you weren't hurt... I hate I-10 through Houston, well I-10 in general, but Houston has gotten bad. Doubt it's totaled...

Glad you are OK, trucks can be fixed/replaced, but people can't. Hope you get her fixed soon.

Glad you are okay....I cringed just watching it though. I had an 06 SCrew that I used when I took a deer a couple of years back....and it was in much worse shape. They fixed her...but it was about $6500.00 to fix an 8 year old truck. The right front tire, 4 wheel IWE and the bearings were shattered. Bumper tore a brand new Toyo Open Country AT2 almost in half. Radiator was shredded, and driver's seat had an unusual stain in it.

The deputy that came out told me that I was hunting out of season....he and my wife went to school together.

Glad you are ok sucks you wrecked your truck! They wont total your truck they will fix it. I was in a much worse accident on 11/28 broke a vertebrae in my neck and back wasn't wearing a seat belt (I know). Insurance company originally put an estimate on it to be fixed but wanted a final decision until they could look at it on a lift. Got to a local dealership and the body shop manager called me to tell me it was in and said he would recommend it be totaled to the ins. company. They came back looked at it and agreed. My accident was nearly head on I was turning left and didn't see him so he hit my right front bumper going 40-50mph I was going 20-25. My head took out the overhead console. Lost vision for 5-10seconds but not consciousness. Motor mount and starter were both wrecked the box was out of alignment with the cab so frame was twisted. You damage isn't anywhere near as extensive judging from the impact you took on the video.....doesn't even look like your airbags deployed. Here are a couple pics of my truck after the accident.
