Yeah, that's what I would "hope" for....even if they fixed it...I'm not sure I'd want it back. You banged it up pretty good! Oh well, keep us posted on your new truck

I would look into the airbag thing, I bought a nitrous kit from a guy that sued GM because his airbags didnt deploy on a similar highway accident (although his was quite a bit worse, and he got injured). Dont know if he was telling the truth, and I probably shouldnt even say anything if its true, but lets just say he was VERY happy with the outcome of the case, and that the airbags SHOULD have deployed but the sensors were bad.

I really hope they dont fix it. But if i get it fixed i will aim for the biggest light pole i can find and get it done right on the 2nd try. Man i hope that 3rd times a charm thing doesnt apply with this

Yup, once they get wrecked especially from the front end, they're never the same. I wish they would have totalled out my '03, only reason why they didnt was because the damages werent enough. If the airbags would have come out, then they would have totalled it out because the damages would have been more than half of the cost of the truck.

Yeah if your frame is bent more than likely they will probably total her out. Just all depends. Let us know the outcome.

Just take the money from the insurance company and buy a 6.0L and a Radix to drop in there...





(just wanted to show that the answer to every question on here is NOT "Buy a Radix!" LOL)

Seriously though, I would HOPE that they total it. I don't know that I'd want to drive that truck once it's fixed. Best of luck to ya man.
