Default Dodge 1 Ford 0

So this guy pulls out in front of me in his Ford Ranger and I didn't have enough space to get around him. I hit him in the side and spun him in the road but the Ole Dodge just kept right on going. The damage is worse than it looks in the pictures, I've been givin a preliminary quote of around $5,000 in damage. Glad I'm not footing the bill, and I'm glad I didn't hit him in the door because it probably would have killed him. I really dislike stupid people.

Oh yeah; One of the guys on scene said "If you can't Dodge it, Ram it"

why would it get totaled? its only going to get totaled if the frame is out of whack and they have to pull it back into shape.

The truck is still valued in the $8,000 private party range, so I'm not worried about it being totaled. That was just the quick guesstamate I recieved, it could be less. I'm not real happy about the whole thing thought, I really love this truck. I was thinking that if it did get totaled I would get another one.
