Wrapped my truck around a tree today...damn it!

First post in a while!

Bad ice on the roads this afternoon, real bad. Hit this patch and lost absolutely all steering, just drifted off with the crown of the road. Slid off and hit a tree. Wasn't even wearing my seatbelt, lol. Wasn't hurt, but it was a pretty good hit. I think the frame and driveline is fine, hopefully I'll be able to get it pulled out and drive it back when everything thaws out (with some minor roadside tinkering). Cab is at least kind of messed up, though. Sucks. Just more stuff to fix, I guess.

A cop gave me a ride to somewhere and had to make multiple attempts to get started up the slight hill. Then got sideways and almost crashed like I did three times in about two miles. Real icy!

Bad end to another bad week. Hopefully I won't have too much to fix.
