Default Beautiful 2001 Dodge Ram 2500 Stolen and Crashed

Just over a month ago, she was in near mint condition.
This is her now :'(
It looks like the cab and box are now slightly twisted. Is there any chance that the cab could twist on its own, or is it definitely the frame? Hoping to rebuild the truck!

Get a copy of the service manual, It has the frame dimensions at different points so you know how bad it is. Look on craigs list there are always second gens being parted out. Hope you can get it back in driving condition soon. Any details of how it was stolen or will the insurance cover anything?

Man that really sucks! I hate to tell you but that thing it totaled. Better off finding another truck and swapping things over that are still good.

Relax, all right? My old man is a television repairman, he's got this ultimate set of tools. I can fix it.

I think a lot of people won't know where that came from.

Aren't you supposed to say "that'll buff right out"?
