Default My accident......

So, it was 11;30, I had been up since 4 am, very little food all day, 1/4 mile from home, didn't notice the light change red.

jump on the brakes so hard my engine stalls
got T-Boned by a fullsize chevy van.
the center of his bumber hit the center of my back wheel, square
I spin around, slide off the road backwards. missing a gas line by inches on the dollar.


I'm fine, the other driver was fine.
he needs a new grille, bumper, and lights {which work fine but are broken}

I need a new: bed, passenger side door, the dents in my cab may not come out, my exaust was removed cat back, wheel and a clean pair of pants.



luckily, my axle never shifted and my frame is as straight as an arrow
this truck is a tank.

my spring plans are very much in limbo. and I may lose my liscence
but, i'll worry about that when the time comes
