Red face Tailgate fell off.....

Heading over to the wife to be's place tonigth cruizin about 60mph hit some really rough road then I noticed a wierd noise..... kinda like a dragging exhaust system.... but I knew it was solid. Pull overf and upon Looking under the truck with the flash light noticed the gate was missing so I head back to find that the 1 car that had passed me drove over it. I guess it's time to get a rust free truck thats a little more solid. Glad they did not get hit with it I am still not sure how that happned ? The box sides did have some play side to side but I did not think it was that bad.

Well that was my day/night oh well can you say GHETTO ride ?
