Where is everyone #5

Spent $187 on this. The dealer next town over wanted $199. Should have checked eBay first...
Then my mechanic calls and tells me that the tires he priced me last month went up $30 a tire. Crap. Thinking I may just buy a set of drives now too.

 

I was under the truck measuring the brakes and checking things over when I seen this...some days.

 

@OLDSKOOLERnWV that was the article I had read, or a publication on it. Lots of history and death. Ambush and murder.

 

Don't worry none good sir, got me an even sillier looking shaker that will make people shake their heads.! lol

 

Le sigh.


Twist the shut off valve for the tire inflation and off we go. Just a bad load to have it happen on… got 37k on the spread :/

I didn't think it was that bad either.? But I only had $15k worth of insurance on it. With the skyrocketing prices on parts it added up quick..

The low deck of the step went under the bunk, & crunched the battery box which saved the cab for the most part. Just a little bend. Bumper, & hood. Frame horn bent a bit , cowl got bent too. Bell housing cracked, input shaft bent, & paint of course. Maybe more, but that's as far as it went to exceed the insured amount..

At $4k,.the buy back seemed a bit steep.. Florida has a ~50 50 shot at the title coming back as salvage/parts only. Not a $4k gamble I was willing to take. Especially since they are "short staffed because the pandemic", so it was a 6-8 week wait to even get that answer..

 

The Salmonella Shaker!

The lady that was lost has been found.

Unfortunately it wasn't the outcome everyone hoped for.
