    That sucks Dune. You took good care of them Gen 1's. Hope the insurance doesn't screw you.

    He just got pulled out. Trailer did not get damaged and he was empty.
    I am planning to repair the truck, its drivable, only cab is messed up, everything else seems to be fine. It's too good of a truck to get rid of it.
    I am not planning to touch the insurance, it's not worth it in this case

    I had a very similar jackknife in WY a while back. The cabin bounced off the trailer causing no damage to it but the side of the truck looked very alike. Well it was also driveable so I drove it like that from Rock Springs, WY to Chicago...all scales were closed and everybody was looking at me with disbelief . Some were giving me thumbs up, some were shaking heads. As long as the frame is still good, it won't be too bad to fix.
