Truck probably saved your lives, think what would have happened if a new tin can took that kind of hit. A Volvo tried to take on my 59 in 77, I drove away with a scratched bumper, Volvo was totaled because the front end looked like your pickup, except the front windshield popped out and the A pillar folded the door. I fought my ticket and won, they were speeding and a parked truck was blocking my view as I pulled out of the driveway. Insurance Co. eventually got them for fraud, drivers daddy was a doc that treated the passengers mysterious neck and back injuries, while she played college sports!
