My mom hit the house this morning.(Have more pics)
My mom was pulling out of the driveway and the accelerator or transmission was stuck and the truck hit my neighbor mailbox and then slammed into the house. My dining room has a big bulge in the wall and a china cabinet with expensive plates from Germany and France are all destroyed. My truck has a pushed in bumper smashed to hell tail lights and a messed up tailgate. My mom is ok but the truck and house isn't.

The truck was leaking something.
You can see the carpet from the outside.

OUCH!!! 
Glad everyone is OK. Man that could have been really bad.
Looking at this pic.
Looks like she hit it at a pretty sharp angle then the truck bounced out about 2' and the front end slid to the right about 6' before comeing to a rest. She was moving pretty fast. LOL
I'm not in construction or anything but I might would cut some of that siding off and see how man studs got broke. Temporarily you can get a cieling jack and put in the wall and scab any busted studs to prevent any further structual damage. Especially with the added weight of the snow on the roof. From the inside pic it looks like there might be atleast 2 broken studs, but when you tear in to it, then there might be more. Right now your cieling is untouched, but that could change with out support as gravity works. If it happens to be worse than what it looks then you could end up with some roofing problems by morning.
Are you sure she's not Mountaineers mom too?
