Ford trucks!

itbrokeagain · 12-17-2007, 03:06 PM

Well I had a little issue Friday morning. On my way to work traveling 60 MPH down the highway 2 deer ran out in front of me. I swerved, bounced off a guard rail (tore open the side of my truck like a can opener) and came back across the road and snapped a telephone pole in half which then landed on the roof of my truck.

I am fine and the truck is too. My uncles friend, who works at a body shop, is going to fix it for $900. But because of the roof damage it will be totaled. I would have driven the truck home but the state trooper wouldnt let me. Wish I had pics but didnt have a camera. I will get some pics of the truck and post them. Hit a telephone pole at 60 in your Kia and see what happens!!!!!

FORD FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!

Sounds like you were veeeeeery lucky. What year of ford was it? Gonna buy it off of the insurance company?

(Never swerve to avoid a deer unless it was rudolph!)

dang tony, glad yer ok man... wheel that truck man...

Fresh road kill. Two deer ought to last a few months. Now if you missed the deer why did you bother to swerve?

Damn Tony you make it sound fun.....

If that was my Chevy I would have hit them with straight on kept going as they landed in the bed ready to be processed!:p

Two ran out. I would have had them. I wish I hit them. I just reacted.

It is a 2000 F-250. Its my work/personal truck. What a ride that was.

Turn it into a truggy!

Is that still the V10 you had Tony? I know that one towed well especially at about 90 through 275's construction zone.

94Dodge Truggy · 12-19-2007, 11:43 AM

the V 10 would make a nice muddin motor or crawler setup

itbrokeagain · 12-19-2007, 02:46 PM

I wish but the v-10 was sold a couple months ago.

RuffedUpXJ · 12-19-2007, 05:17 PM

This new one a diisel?

itbrokeagain · 12-19-2007, 06:14 PM

Diesel would be nice. Nope just a v-8. That v-10 did pull very very nicely though.

itbrokeagain · 12-20-2007, 11:06 PM

Found out today, totaled for sure. Also I was also told this by our agent. If you hit a deer and destroy your truck you pay no deductable. If you destroy your truck avoiding the deer and dont hit it you pay.

Go figure.
