Ok guys, Shes gone :(

Makes me sick to my stomach to make a post like this but I guess I have to. Thursday night at like 11:30 my truck was totalled Sitting at a red light on a major intersection (Park Blvd and 66th street for those who live in St.Pete/Tampa know exactly what im talking about)

I was in right lane, White F150 was in middle and smaller car was in far left. Light turned green all started to go. About 1/2 way through the intersection this 93 Chevy S10 came out of now where going 50-55 im guessing didnt even try to stop. broad sided me, which in turn pushed me in to the white
F-150 made him do a 360 and hit the other car.

Mine it totalled as you can see by the pics just waiting on insurance to confirm, Every side and corner of it has a dent. Front axle is broke and right tire fell off. Axle put a grapefuit size hole in the pavement. and passenger door came in so far it broke the glove box in half.
The White F-150 had a broken rear axle and hes going to need a whole new bed. Pics coming below

Yeah the truck can be replaced...I have a bruise on my shin and my back an neck are a little stiff, going to docotor on Monday.

I talked to the officer today, the guy who caused it was drunk and has no insurance as it usually is, which sucks. But the cop said his ankle was serverly messed up and he'll be in the hospital for a while. This guy is refusing it was his fault and was cursing and what not at the officer in the hospital lastnight. The officer said hes never had so many witnesses at one accident and every single one of their stories match ours.

Makes me so mad that people get out there and drive drunk I just dont understand it at all. You can ruin so many lives not just yours own when you do that

I just thank God that my girlfriend was not in the passenger seat she would have been seriously hurt. He was definetly looking out for all of us involved

Maybe you should "mess up" his other ankle as well as "mess up" a few other parts of his body, lol.

Wow glad to hear your ok man. The truck can always be replaced. I remember how proud you were too when you got that truck too.

Your right about that intersection though, I drive through there at least twice a day lately.

Glad to hear your okay. The truck seems like it held up pretty well for being hit at 50MPH.
