    Yeah. Hey go back and grab one of the rocks unless too heavy. Keep it on your mantle or in the garage. Good conversation piece as the decades go by.

    I have a decent pile of saved stuff that’s been wrecked just to remember it by.

    Simple answer.....Cost of repair exceeds value of truck. Glad you are ok. We all bitcch about insurance until this happens. That is why we pay for it. Every.....single....month.
