Default Grim day for another dak...

Well probably gonna be looking for a new truck. If the insurance company totals it.... WHICH I HOPE THEY DONT.

Was going through town when i was slowing down for a car that stopped in front of me, some young girl in a Nissan Versa slams on her brakes and rear ends me, then a guy in a Silverado hits her trying to stop. Well this sends my truck to slide into the Carolla in front of me.

Well my rear bumpers bent up on the left side, my bed bumped my window taking out the back glass (All this i HOPE the frame isn't bent...which=totaled). And my drivers turn signals busted. More worried about the truck to be honest.

everyone was ok, but the girl that hit me's car(versa) now resembled a cube. As with mine, it doesn't LOOK bad. Good ol' American engineering.

Just glad its not my fault....

I don't think that he was bashing JCFChamp. I think that was meant towards the other retarded drivers that hit him, and then plowed him into the vehicle in front of him.

Well as of right now i have no idea, so no solid updates. My company had me running around to the other companies, they 2 sent me off to the other. Its really a pita[:@].

After talking to my insurance company, hopefully things are back on track. From what i've heard chances are its not gonna be totaled. It's a "fixable" bend near the end of the drivers side which is causing my truck bed to be off center slightly.

I've been given the ok to get a rear window put in (pay then turn in the costs), which its about time cause after driving it home and to the insurance company i'm tired of freezing my tail off. Covering the rear window doesn't work so well
