texastrophies Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 Drove my truck for over 5 years and over 260,000 miles with no wrecks, then I hit the deer in May with over $7,000 damage to it and now this morning a lady ran a stop sign and hit me. She hit me on the driver side right behind my door, caved the side in, hit the rear tire and messed the rearend up, which pulled the driveshaft out and I was told messed up both the transfer case and the cracked the transmission housing. I was pulling my trailer with my 4 wheeler on it, so she then moved back and hit the front axle of the trailer and tore the spring perches off. But the bike appeared to be ok. The trailer can be fixed, but I believe that after 271,000+ miles the old truck will have to be put to rest. And I guess the other good news was both of us were ok also. I got some pics of it, but don't really feel like putting them up right now, so maybe monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IowaDeerHunter Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 Re: Another wreck At least everyone was alright. That is the main thing, trucks and other things can be replaced. Was it you that was in an accident a while back hauling a four wheeler? There was pictures posted on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buckee Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 Re: Another wreck Good to hear your OK Jeff. I almost rear-ended someone the other day. She just decided to stop, with no turn signals. I left a little rubber on the road, but mangaed to avoid her. Drive defensively bud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palssonater Posted July 24, 2006 Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 Re: Another wreck Man that's too bad. That truck looks like its in good shape. What year is it? Sure messed up your trailer too. As long as the ATV was ok! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exturkinator Posted July 24, 2006 Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 Re: Another wreck You have (or had if it can't be repaired) a very nice truck - hope you either get it back to health or replace it with one that's just as nice... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeramie Posted July 24, 2006 Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 Re: Another wreck [ QUOTE ] Glad you're OK Chuck. Hopefully she had good insurance. [/ QUOTE ] Me too! That isnt any fun. Keep one thing in mind. Dont settle with her insurance company until youre sure youre ok. I was rear ended a couple of years ago. I always thought whiplash was a way for people to cash in...... Negative. I HURT for a good week or two after that. I didnt felt fine after the wreck. It didnt get bad until the next morning. Their job is to get out of this as cheaply as possible. Youll soon see they dont give a hoot about you...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
