I see bright silver metallic in your eyes hehe Nows the time to painter like Altair was saying.

Anywayz sorry to hear man, glad everyone involved is ok. The trucks replacable, people arent. Take care man, and don't be to hard on yourself.

 

Now that sucks and I know the feeling. I drove my 74 Charger 440 SE into a guardrail on a dark up state New York road and have no memory falling out. Car was fixed but lesson was learned. I rather get there a little later than maybe not at all.Good luck with the whole situation and don't be too hard on yourself there’s already enough to deal with and it will go away.

 

Thanks fellas I appreciate the understanding. Hopefully I can help other people realize the dangers of driving when tired. If you think about it it really is no less dangerous than driving while intoxicated.

Bright silver metallic, bah! I'll stick with inferno red. I smell jealousy.

 

yup your own jealousy that your truck is not green like mine, definatly the best color dodge offers


but yea glad to hear that everyone is ok, sorry to hear about yout truck man, but at least your ok

 

ok im glad ur ok but look at the bright side of this u can get the hood u want for ur truck and any other aftermarket crap to replace the stuff damaged!!!

 

Looks like everything is squared away with insurance and the people I hit. The guy is happy with the check he will be getting for the blue book value of his car and the body shop is starting work on my truck and hopes to be done by the end of next week. All in all everything all together is probably going to cost my insurance around 12k. They told me $5,500 to fix everything on my truck.

So until I get my truck back I am driving a 98 Pontiac Grand Prix loaner car which I must say I have been pretty impressed with. Despite having 173,000 miles on it, it runs really strong. Not to mention it gets around 30mpg so gas is a whole lot cheaper.

I will try to post some pictures up probably sometime later today after I get up I just haven't gotten around to it.

 

Should count yourself lucky, mine's still being fixed... Finally had to describe the accident to the insurance agent today (she kept not calling me back), not a fun experience, after having to recall it I can see it as if it was happening all over again[&:]

 

Yeah I just feel lucky to be alive I called the couple I hit on the phone the other day. Sweetest people I have ever met, they have been nothing but selfless, kind, and forgiving to me. The guy is going to get a check for blue book value and he is happy with it! The car only had 40k on it and was in prisitine condition until I came along. I feel terrible for these people but they were happy I checked in on them. They even told me they thought I was an outstanding young man, and that they thought I was being very conscientious calling them to check on them and everything. The old guy said I seemed like a straight arrow and said that he thought I was going to move along in life just fine. Honestly it about made me cry, Ill be a man and admit it. I can't believe these people have been so kind to me when I could have seriously hurt and/or killed them.

Yeah I still got the whole stuck on repeat thing going on. I was with my girlfriend behind a car that suddenly braked ahead of me and when she told me to watch for them it was like a flashback. Heart rate jumped and adrenaline was pumping and everything. Got some crazy post-traumatic stuff going on and I don't like it but I suppose I earned it.

In all honesty I just want to get rid of my truck for the moment and get a cheapie car that I can carry liability on for the next five years. Then when my insurance goes back down then I will look at a truck with options. But that will be hard considering I still owe 14k on my truck and the only way I could possibly get rid of it now is to get it repossessed which would annihilate my credit rating which I definitely don't want to do. I just don't think it is going to be easy to afford the payments and the insurance when it undoubtedly goes through the roof.

 

Keep your head up man! Dont give up.
