Default truck is going to be totalled

hit a group of 5 hogs today running about 60 on a backroad. The frame is bent really bad in 2 places. I will try to keep the truck and find a roller, but its bad.

Ill try to get pics of it when I can get to the truck to get myself from it.

That's a bummer. How the heck do you score 5 hogs? That must be some sort of record. Hope you are OK.

Didnt kill all of them just 2 cause I swerved to avoid them. Im glad me or my friend didnt get hurt at all. I had to tell her to stay in the truck though cause she never seen a wild hog. I was unfortuntly unable to keep the hogs.

I will find me a roller to put my motor and trans into and keep my axles if I can for backups.

Unless your motor and tranny are well above average, buying another may be cheaper in the long run....

They both just had a fresh rebuild on them before I even got to enjoy my truck good.

Do you want a std cab our would a QC work for you? I know of one that may work that is QC. I know engine and tranny shot, and body is in fair condition. I'll check to se if he will part with it and how much.

Yep. Its 4x4. That's the only reason I did not buy junk tranny for a mod project I have in mind. My Ram is 2wd so it would not fit to test out my idea.
