I'd make sure I did, and then run it into a tree and see if you can blame it on the electrical problems. :P

Set it on fire and blame it on faulty wiring or park it in the hood and leave it running.

Look up your insurance policy's "Act of God" coverage.
Then tow your truck into a tree.
We did it with my cousins wife's 93 Cherokee, totaled that sucker right out.

I think most insurance policies cover the entire "Act of God" thing haha.

I thought it was funny to read the act of God thing in a buyer's warranty for a small electronic device I bought once.

But as far as the truck, seems as if youve got some problems. Hopefully insurance will help you out somehow.

Best of luck man.

Sounds like you need a new truck.

Or a new steering column.

I think you should drive it into a tree, this is a really good plan.
