Thanks for all of the thoughts guys. I hate that this happened but I am glad that I was able to walk away from it with only four small pieces of glass in my are. Four stiches is all that it took to seal up my cut. They were amazed at the hospital that I was not in any pain, it looked really bad but did not hurt.

Travis and TJ sad to see both of your fine trucks in an accident. I guess its lucky there was only minor injuries.

Wow! Guess I should check in to DTR more often. Glad to see you all are okay. Yes the trucks can be fixed, but that doesn't make the frustration any easier to go through. Sorry this happened guys! Travis get well soon, and hope your trucks get well soon too.

After seeing what happened to that pole I told my wife to think about what would happen to someone pulling out in front of me while doing 40 mph,might just cut the car in half.
One of the big reasons for me getting a 3 ton truck was last year I was my 79T-bird and got rear ended at a stop by a chevy 3500 doing 35-40,I drove away from it the chevy did not.
I get rear ended now they might get the hitch in there face.

Dang,
Just found this thread... glad you two made it through that without any major injuries.
Hopefully the trucks will be rolling down the road again soon.

BTW, any comments from the cops, tow truck driver, etc.? Not every day you see two trucks demolish that much stuff and sustain that little damage.

Wow. Trucks can be fixed is RIGHT! Walking away from just about any accident is good news most of the time. People die everyday in similar situations.
T.J, why was the van stopping so soon? I bet he was shocked to see you in the rear view about .003 seconds before you made impact!

Yes I have recieved several comments about how minor the damage is to my truck for going THROUGH a pole. Talking with the towing company today she said that the grill is not even cracked. I will verify this information in the AM when I have to go inspect it with the insurance company at the repair facility. More pictures to follow, along with repair pictures comming soon (hopefully)

Don't sign anything from the insurance company. They ain't no better than the dealerships. Take it to your body shop and get the estimate. Cliff's Hi-Tech did all the talking with the insurance company for me. They are an authorized insurance repair facility.
