that sucks that your truck was injured. my friend had something similar happen from some junk that was buried in the mud but it only blew his tire. It was fun changing that in the middle of no where.

as the saying goes, chicks dig scars. No where does say that this can't apply to trucks.

Well I'll start the flaming.

If they had put up poles to keep you from going in there then you should not have been there. Just be glad that pole didnt pop your tire and you would have gotten cought out there.

If it's a 4 door extended cab and judging by the pics it looks like that will be an easy fix. If it isn't then that is going to require some work. I would get a junkyard door and have the body shop repaint them and swap the doors out. The bed is going to need a little work...

Be lucky it didn't get your drivetrain...that would have been much worse...
