Drunk Driver vs. My Ram... Sad day
Well this definitely is the worst post I've had to make on this board. Going home from work last night a drunk driver ran a red light and T-Boned me in the driver's side. She never even took her foot off the gas, even after she hit me, tried to keep driving, but luckily a highway patrolman saw the whole thing and took off after her (Even though her car wasn't going to make it much further). All-in-all I'd say my truck took it like a champ and kept me safe inside. My left side is bruised up from my shoulder to my foot from hitting the door, but nothing broken and was able to climb out of the truck on my own power (Passenger side obviously).
Things that are obviously damaged:
Driverside front quarter-panel, both doors, the entire bed is destroyed, even twisted and contorted the passenger side, pierced gas tank, my instrument cluster wasn't working right when I drove it off the scene, and the frame looks bent up underneath the back of the cab and bed.
The guy that towed it in, I talked to him today (he also runs a body shop) and he said there's a good chance they will total loss it, but we'll see.
Here's some pics, cell phone pics only for now, my camera was at work, damage doesn't really show as bad as it looks in person:

My heart just dropped when I read this. I saw the title and though whose the author and then I just died inside. Such a beatiful truck with new cut-outs and some bitch has to drive drunk and risk people's lives. I hope insurance don't decide to total it, I wanna see how effed up that car is though. Glad to hear you were able to walk away without any broken bones or anything just a few bruises. If insurance does total it I'm sorry to say they won't give ya what it's worth but you can always get another one. Who knows you might be able to get an 09?
