Well, i had a pretty bad day yesterday. I took my raptor to lunch yesterday (on a beautiful day), and headed to eat, i was behind a wood chip truck (18wheeler full of wood chips), and another logging truck pulled out in front of the 18 wheeler in front of me.. it was a long straight 2 lane road, and no body coming so i eased out past the first 18wheeler (wood chip truck) and went to pass.. as i was 3/4 of the way past him, he decided he was going to pass the log truck in front of him. He didn't look, turned right into the side of my raptor (both of us going about 55 mph) and his trailer started digging into the side of my truck... I realized it was either keep getting blasted by this 60,000lb trailer and possibly get killed, of dive the truck off into the ditch.. Well, i took the ditch after he had already ripped the mirror off my passenger side, and dug a huge hole in the front fender. When i went of the side of the road, the passenger side front tire dug into the ground and sheered the steering knuckle in half, bent the shock, and upper and lower A-arms. . As you can see by the pics, i'm devastated. Hopefully it can all be fixed.. I'm guessing close to $15,000 in damage/repairs/body work.
I can tell u this.. if i was in my 07' F250, My JK, or my cobra, i probably wouldn't have lived to tell this story!
See the pics.. This sucks! oh, and i have had it 3 months, and only put 3,500 miles on it!
