C10 plowed through a mercedes bens
 
Some 17 year old girl who just got her liscence ran a stop sighn and pulled out in front of me in a '99 Merceces. i did everything i could to avoid hitting her but i ended up clipping the back end of here drivers side. no one got hurt but i hit the car so hard it did a 180 and ended up halfway off the road facing oncoming traffic. there was a big truck print right behind the back door of her car and the rear bumper got torn off and wrapped around a pole on the side of the road. i found pieces of tail light under my hood. my truck looks fine untill you look at it up close, the bumper has a slight bend in it, the fender has a tiny buckle, the crome around the headlight is slightly pressed in and the lines are off a little bit. no one could believe the minimal amount of damage to my truck, including me! i never reallized what tanks these trucks are! it was like a frieght trane hitting an RV. im getting a nice insurance check out of it, im flipping through jegs and summit right now, hehe.

Luckily everybody came out all right in the wreck, you can now put all kinds of new stuff in your truck with that insurance check :D

You wouldn't believe how strong these trucks are, I once rear ended a late model escort doing like 35mph, nothing left where once there was a trunk :eek:


Some teenagers just don't know how to drive, I sometimes wonder how they got their license in the first place.

That's also the reason why my Longhorn is my daily driver :cool:
