I didn't know getting in an accident automatically qualified me as stupid. Thank you for your response and thank your gay pink hummer as well.

Actually... sometimes (maybe all the time), if you are somewhere that forbids vehicles, insurance will NOT cover any damages/loss.

I know someone that damaged someone else's car while driving around near those electrical towers. There are signs EVERYWHERE saying no vehicles allowed. He filed a claim, and the adjuster said no to the claim.

yeah man what happened? Did you catch those dirt mounds around a turn or something? Did it make you feel safe how well the ranger held up in a rollover? Id like to know how safe I should feel, lol.

Hope you make out okay with the claim and dont get screwed.

Father-in-law and I were on the way up to my cabin to cut some firewood the next day so at about 8pm, as we were heading in, some drunk redneck piece of **** in a late 80's cadillac that was hauling @ss almost hit us head on in going thru a gradual curve. I swung super wide to avoid him and never could get the rear-end of my truck under control and ended up sliding sideways off the road only to have the wheels get caught in a little dip and over the truck went. The caddy took out some bushes (and a tire) but kept going. Apache County Sheriff came across the car a few miles down the road with a completely bare wheel and about 50 beer cans on the floor and no driver. So thank you for your concern and assumptions that I am a dumbass. Hopefully none of you have to hear metal crunching around you cause some idiot decided to drink and drive. Maybe you won't come to a stop with the dirt six inches from your face and your passenger still hanging from their seat above you. Grow up liitle boys.

To the other questions: Yes- the truck felt very solid in the roll over- No, I wasn't offroading, just driving. Claim paid the truck off and then left me with a few grand and yes I will enjoy my G35 SEDAN as much as my wife enjoys her FX35.

imo, i would look into the sport trac, great truck/car combo, nice and small, good on gas, lots of room in the back seat (did a 12 hour road trip in the back of a friend's) but still has a box for hauling things... such as firewood, and high wheel clearance so you can do some moderate wheeling...

glad to hear you are ok though, even more glad to hear that it wasn't something dumb that you did... i would agree with the other people that you should strip your mods off, they are not going to be included in your claim, i wouldn't think...

is your father in-law ok aswell?
