Hey man,
Like I've said a million times before.........nothing you could do.
I crawled all over that truck after the crash, and so did your brother. That truck was built SOLID. NO MECHANICAL FAILURE!

Driver error. No other way around it.
Everybody knows you don't air 35" Boggers up to 45LBS, and drive down country roads 90 MPH! Especially in a lifted SWB 4X4!
And you don't stomp the brakes at that speed, no matter how much your wife pizzes you off!
78 ft. of skid marks, and the last 40 or so were sideways? Airborne for another 75 or 100 ft.?
He just wasn't thinking!

Everytime I leave my drive, I can still see it there.
He comes about once a month, or so, to put flowers by the edge of the field.
It really makes me a lot more aware of my driving, now.

Later,
Mike
