I was drivin slow, turning around actually because the road I was on had dropped into the shade, and was a bit icy for my tastes. Turned around, started goin about 25 feet and hit a patch of black ice, spun a 180 and launched over a 15 foot embankment backwards. I landed at the bottom on the tail of my truck and it tipped over backwards and rolled at the same time, landing on the hood/door/top of the cab. Crushed in the windshield good and the roof a little bit, and a fair amount of damage just... everywhere. Airbags didn't go off though. I'm fine, truck is not fine. I had JUST left my Grandma's house after Christmas, so kinda put a damper on things. Oh, I just bought this truck, and I'm moving in three weeks. Also, three days of sobriety with the family, and my dad is not a guy you want around when shit is going wrong (Well, I always say you make your own luck...). That being said, I got a new camera, which was undamaged in my rollover, so I'll post some pictures later How was everyone else's Christmas? Happy new years!
Yea... I can't wait to move and just start over. The town I'm in (for a girl, who dumped me) has killed 6 of the 7 vehicles I've owned here, in three years. 4 with 4 wheels, 3 motorcycles, one of which is still running. And I'm sore as a motherfucker today.
That I did. 1K deductible, but better than nothin! Waiting on pics from my mom. She's got the uber camera, and mine was in the truck; its okay too
The truck was actually turned 90 degrees from this position, and back into the woods about 5 feet. The tow truck had already arrived and started doing his thing. Sorry there's only 2 pics, dunno what that's about she usually takes a shit ton of pictures of everything.
dam good to see to came out unharmed. Personally i think your lucky the airbag didnt go off, when i got in my only accident the airbag did more damage to me then anything.
This for sure. When the truck hit tail end first, I actually thought the action was over and unbuckled to get out. THEN it started rolling over backwards, so I got to ride it out. I was kneeling on the inside of the roof as it landed on it. Also, I'm giving this bitch a 5 star crash rating, for anyone thinking for buying a yota.
