Oh, yeah,
I am used to accelerating with the pedal 3/4s of the way down on this turn, I wasn't thinking and stupid me thought, the road is wet, I should only put the pedal down half way, WRONG, spun one direction, over-countersteered, spun the other direction, went up the curb going backwards, hit the guardrail

Are you getting the one with the lights? It's pretty cool and it shows the price the same as without.

I haven't been on in awhile (work, school and family have me busy 27 hours a day), but glad to see that no one was hurt and the truck doesn't look too bad.

The second to last pic. . . Rust??? I feel sorry for you people that spend high $$$ for cars and trucks and that is how they look in 2 to 3 years. Is there anything that will delay/prevent the process from starting? Pool guys down here have no bodies left on their pickup trucks because the caustic chemicals they carry and spill etc. Most of them are getting smart and buying those cheap small trailers you can get at Lowe's for transport of chemicals.

Someone said in these forums some time ago that cars from up north look like crap but the engines are still good after the car falls apart. Huh??? The car or truck is falling apart; Tell me what good an engine is? That my truck will look good but not run good because the engine outlasts the body. Sounds good in theory...but I will just buy another truck in 5 years.
