Rep Power: 379 Switched lanes (center to right), either missed a car or the car came out of nowhere, we clipped the car (barely doing anything to the car) but it pushed us sideways. The truck went up the curb missing that tree by less than a foot, rode against that chain link fence and finally stopped sliding when we hit that pole that it's resting against in those pictures. Not sure when the wheel came off.
Subarus FTW I do NOT miss my civic

Rep Power: 0 You couldnt just hit a regular fence, you had to try and run through the track. That track is for running, not driving and trying to hit kids. Man, I feel sorry for you. haha
That does suck though, time for some import made quality stuff. My civic would handled that like a champ, maybe a little dent

I'm surprised the fence held the truck off! I thought it woulda blasted right through it! Hope the ins co is nice to you! Who got cited?
That by your mom's? Looks like 32nd st and Greenway...

I was just playing dude. I dont have the best record, but only one accident caused by me. Right after I got off the phone from fighting with my ex, I switched lanes and hit a VW. The dude was cool though, and I said it was my prob and gave him my insurance. I didnt calim on mine, so it didnt go up any.

Rep Power: 0 thats like a mile and a half from where you say you live. Thats a couple miles from my house. At least you didnt hit my civic, or Id be pissed, and you'd be sued, haha. I was right over there when you said it happened. I was at McDonalds, but busted a U-turn right where you got into the accident. In the ghetto. At least no Mexicans decided to jack you as well

Rep Power: 274 Did it come to rest on the wheel like that? It prolly came off when you hopped the curb or something. At least you can go to traffic school....I saw an HKS ad that said "driving school is a great place to meet hotties" LOL

Thats what I thought too but there are tire marks in the dirt are if you look, thats a long way to have drug that tire for it to be only a foot back from the wheel well

Rep Power: 379 It hasn't yet. But with frame damage they will. Door skins, bed skins, fenders, hood, bumper, headlight, a arms, brakes, wheels, and hood could be replaced but the frame was crunched and there is actual cab damage too under the doors. We're waiting to see what Farmers does. I'll let you all know..

I heard from a friend of mine that has a Ram, that there is a problem/defect with either the metal or the casting process that makes the spindle very weak! There have been instances of them breaking under normal strain and people getting into accidents... crazy and this is on older Rams... looks like they havent fixed it too well!

Rep Power: 379 Look at the pics from behind. The tire marks don't line up. When we hit it slid the *** end over about 4 feet to the left lol
