Sorry sorry to hear :-( good that u survied the gas
pump though.
i wrecked the same parts for about 2-3 months ago
when i "parked"
inside an mazda 323, old lady driving 20 kmh in 50
kmh zone,.. got tired
and didnt notice that the bit..
stopped.
anyway, the bill became 83.000 NKr (insurance) that
will be aprox 10.000$
in repair :-/
can probably buy u an new truck for what the bumper
and cladding costs...
Good luck.

Subject: [SYTY] wrecked my truck
tonight
ok, i thought i been having it rough trying to tune my truck. and now i
also just got in a wreck with it tonight. took a right turn onto a country
road. went to pass and the person in front of them was taking a left hand
turn. so i slammed on the brakes and could not stop before they where turn
left. i was next to them at this point and also had to turn left. felt like
brakes went out of me. when i turn left i was heeding right at a gas pump.
since braked did not work and felt like i was still on the gas i turn the
truck of hoping it would slow down. cranked the wheel hard left to miss it and
hit the cement bracing in front of the pumps. as i was very very very very
lucky not to hit the pumps!!!!!!!! so i was not sited. I am guess i hit it
around 20 mph on the front left side of the truck right on the head light.
bent the metal bumper and messed up the cladding. not sure if the cladding can
be saved or not also bent the hood. cracked the grill and shoved the fog light
back. so i know will need a new metal bumper brace and hood. but i have bigger
problems also. can not turn ignition on at all. but i can still put it in
drive, od, n and R. i am not sure why this is. i could of drove it home it if
was not for the ignition. and called the insurance company and i am happy to
hear i only have a $250 deductible.
