Nope 800/month not paying that

Sorry about the quality taken on a blackberry

You guys got any ideas on what you think repairs are going too be?

On the bright side it gives me a reason to put a ranger front end on it.

lol
Sorry man, but I'm laughing at the pictures. You just straight up drove into it? Were you drunk or something? $800/mo for insurance says that you must have a history of doing this...?

Either way it sucks. Lots of damage for just driving into something at a parking lot. I saw a dodge charger or something similar that drove into a pole in a parking lot here, same thing, not sure how. But it had a lot more damage than your truck!

You got everything though, bumper, header panel, hood, lights, fender, wheel/tire, suspension and drivetrain. It's not going to be cheap.

You should switch to Geico, you could save 15% or more on car insurance

Why is your insurance so high? I'm 21 with 1 ticket and I'm paying 150 a month US for full coverage with a 500 deductible on my F150.

That sucks though man, you did a number on it.

I think you need to switch insurance companies. I got 3 tickets, my full coverage is 1150 a year.
I bought my truck when I was 21, and then I think it was 1400 a year full coverage.
800 a month is sickening.

i hope your all right and what not, looks like you'll need hood, bumper, some Brake parts and CV shafts. just to start.
I'm a 20 with 4 speeding tickets and a totaled car on my insurance, and i don't even pay 800 a month. but my truck is considered occasional driver.

Yeah I pay $212 a month for 4 vehicles with $250 deductibles. Full coverage on the 2005 F250 and 2003 F150. Liability only on the Ranger and F350. Thats with State Farm.

Was going to go with Allstate but they wanted $530 a month for the same coverage with $500 deductibles.

What I'm trying to say is take these guys advice and shop around, it can make a big difference.
