Very painful to view. I can only imagine so much more so to experiance. I hope I never have to endure seeing my baby banged up like that.

Hopefully the body can be redone with no lasting issues. Let us know who ends up paying for it, which I would assume would be the F-250 driver.

it sounds like your truck may be considered totalled since it hit the cab and with that kind of an impact you probably have the frame rails all bent, if they say its repairable fight for it to be totalled because it will never ride the same if they fix it for you..so basically tell them you want a check for a new truck

hope all is okay man for everyone, i didnt read about anyone getting hurt so it would seem like everyone was okay

can you post some more pics, so i can see all the damage, i deal with accident cars at my job and we fix them its just wrong how they drive!!

Sorry to see that happen. Glad that you are okay though.

I agree with Charles, push to have it totaled. Hard to tell with the one picture, but with that type of damage it will never really be the same.

yeah everyone is ok, i got a severe concussion but im the onlyone that got hurt.
if they dont total it im gonna sell it immediatly after i get it back. it will never be the same after all that. i will be surprised if it doesnt get totalled. but what pisses me off the most is that the seatbelt didnt lock and the airbags never deployed. thats what im most pissed about i think. ill try to get some more pics on here.

you most of not hit the car in front of you over 25, if i remember they will only deploy over 25 for front end collisons and not rear,i know you got both hit but you must of not hit the car in front over 25
