Dude, I honestly don't think I've come this close to bursting into tears over anyone elses truck being totalled. I freakin loved your truck, yet never got to see it in person
Glad you guys were fine except minor injuries.
The truck will be missed.
Mods... request to have a pic put on the front page of just that one for a couple days...

Damn dude, now it hits harder knowing that
I may sound crazy, and some may want to put me in a psych ward for this, but I honestly believe all vehicles have souls. I'm not making it up, I really do believe it. I know my Bronco and my Ranger have had completely different personality's and so forth. My Ranger is more of a ***** than anything. People say my truck can't give me what a girlfriend couldn't give me... ya know not true. The only thing my truck CAN'T do is give me the physical attention. Seeing a truck like that get totalled like that... I consider the wreck to have one fatality.
On the bright side, you gave that truck a second lease on life, which I know damn well it appreciated it thus making itself a good truck. I don't know, i never saw the truck, so I can't call if the truck was male or female, but saving it is... well it's like saving a mutt from the humane society or something liek that.
My Bronco begged and pleaded with me when I sold her as a parts truck not to let her go... it was real eery, but it happened.

i also feel there is a spiritual connection between man and machines. my bronk and my golf both gave me a vibe. the ranger will in time. even at work, there are a couple of buses i enjoy driving more then others. i just have this connection to them for some reason. one of them i fought another driver just to get it. we played rock, paper, scissors. i lost and had to settle for the twin.

Ah bro, I'm so sorry to see that. I'm glad you and your girlfriend got away as lucky as you did. That could have ended up pretty nasty.
Hate to see that happen to such a nice classic little truck like that...she was definetly a looker.
All the best to you and your girl for a quick and full recovery.
What a damn shame. You'll never find another one like it.
