I would like to apologize now for any incoherence in the following text. Well, all was going good today until about 2:00pm. I was was headed to class when all of a sudden this girl decides to run a red light, and as a result I knock the crap out of her car(it's totaled), and screwed mine up in the process. This happened at a major intersection on campus. As a result I missed my afternoon physics class, my foot, neck and ***** hurt, I got a ticket for being a dumb @$$ and not putting my new insurance card in my wallet. Oh well, I'm still alive so I guess that's all that matters.

Not only did she run a red light but she also tried to keep driving, while her front right wheel has a toe-in of about 60 degrees. So as you know one of the drive wheels is not going anywhere on a front wheel drive car so now she got a big smoke show everywhere. If that isn't enough she drives two blocks from the scene of the accident, car stops in the middle of the road and she decides to hop out,while traffic is coming, and go to the sidewalk and have mental breakdown.

Now, about the truck. To me it looks like the whole front clip and hood is done for. I thought that is all that was wrong with it but on the drive home I noticed it pulls to the left quite a bit and has a good little shake to it now. I am really not in the mood to take a good look at it now. Now heres the good part, some photos of the carnage.

 

that is really too bad man...good thing you are somewhat ok and didnt get seriously injured.

I cant believe the bags didnt deploy! That is now an exuse to mod it a little..powdercoated bumper....cowl hood??....Tahoe grill...

 

I recommend you see a doctor immediately for that neck injury.

 

that sucks man, im sick just looking at your truck, id go and skull **** that bitch!

 

I hate to see that man, I bet you were pissed. You really should go see a doctor about your neck as trever1t said.

 

dude i did the same thing about a month ago to my truck only problem is mine still looks like that...i dont have the money to fix it and the accident was 100% my fault...at least yours her insurance will be paying to fix your car...mine isnt quite as bad as yours but its close...my hood is still good...only looks like i need to replace bumper and all components, grill, and left fender...at least i can get a fender for 120 around here and a new bumper for 60...anyways...sucks man...big time

 

that ****** blows man, i agree with the others, not you have an excuse to change things up a bit on her tab. and also go see a doctor.

 

Yeah, I am pretty shocked the bags didn't deploy either. I made sure I unhooked them before I drove anywhere, that's the last I need for airbags to blow up in my face while I'm driving down the road. I think I will pay the doctor a visit tomorrow sometime, it depends on how I feel in the morning. My dad is going to get me in touch with a guy he says does great bodywork, so now the only thing I am worried about is how the truck pulls to the left. I guess I'll check it out later on this week. This is just about going to force me to fix some car around the house. Whether its that green Jeep in the first pic or the '64 I don't know. Off topic, I did not know a fuel pump for a 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee was about $350, are all fuel pumps that expensive or what?

 

Update: I think the truck is totaled. If you look at the last pic you can see on the right side where the frame is bent up and to the right. I am not sure I am just curious. What do you guys think?

 

that part of the frame is made to bend. its a sort of cussion to help keep the passengers from being injured. if it is tweaked just a little they can bend it back to where it belongs with the right equipment. make sure your core support isnt bent. you have a 90% chance that it is. ive seen alot worse, come back from the shop looking brand new.
