i was on my way home one day after a nice long drive down the back roads of northern minnesota, anyway im going down hwy 53 and im in the south bound lane and while going around this big curv the front tire went ontop pf the yellow line. as that happened the road fell apart and i went into a road sign at 65mph. the sign hit the truck at the very corner of the box right behind the cab. ended up being close to 2000 bucks in damage and the cool thing was the state paid for it.

In the truck i have now, so far nothing. Except frogs.
In my Dakota, I got it stuck on a house, in the little gap between the cab and the bed.
what does it mean, the road fell apart?

well the base of the road or the dirt under the road had washed away over time and so the black top had nothing to support the weight of the truck and it was an older part of the road so it just gave way.

Here's my list 2 cars (the one I hit cut me off in a rotary, while the other hit me head on, so does that one count?)
2 trees on trails (tight turn and just didn't clear it, the other was a tight squeeze between some trees and a "wall" which dented my truck but tore up the whole passenger side of the guy following me)
1 jersey barrier (spinout in a Blizzard)

A truck hit me once, while he was backing up. Just minor damage to the right end of the cargo area. No big deal. His insurance covered for the damage

i also hit the the concrete walls on the entrance ramp the the free way. it was during the winter and i hit some black ice and the truck spun out and went head on into the the wall then spun around and backed into the same wall. that was scary lucky for me and the two other people in the truck no one was coming because i was sideways in the ramp.

I was involved in a roll over accident on 128 in the Cape Ann area---some lady merged on to the 2 lane hiway without yielding, cut me off. I swerved to miss her and this Explorer speeding up the other lane swerved to miss me and rolled, and landed right side up. She gave me the finger and kept going (she was on her cell phone, so she was driving at that point with no hands on the wheel.) Someone followed her and got her plate numbers, and in the police report she claimed she didn't see the rollover and hadn't seen that I'd pulled over. HELLO! How can you miss that giant yellow truck?!? The 3 guys in the Explorer crawled out the driver side window, there was blood all over the glass and the center console and one guy was picking pieces of the window out of his face. One was so shaken up he couldn't even speak. I kept trying not to throw up & all I kept thinking was, if someone dies, it's my fault. None of the guys had seat belts on.
Anyway. Since she cut me off and failed to yield, she was cited for the whole thing. There wasn't any contact between any of our cars which was good, but I'd never seen a hi-speed rollover and I hope I don't have to again...

Havnt hit anything but the old girl has a few scars on her, tailgate from loading a snowmobile, that instead of the ski's going onto the tailgate, they went under. Got pissed at my chaulk line one day while roofing a garage, thru it off the roof, just happen to land on my front fender. Boston

that would suck to go get into your truck at the end of the work day and see that dent and the chaulk line sitting there.

Wow at first I didn't think I hit much but it does add up
1 person - actually they hit my mirror with their hand (long story)
1 dead deer with my parents car in highschool - lots of cleaning to the under carriage
1 tree hit me while wheelin - lol
Best friends dog - and he was in the truck at the time
A few birds - wife always gets pissed about those, and for some reason always blames me.
1 fire hydrant screwing around in highschool parking lot - sure the heck don't work like in the movies - messed my truck up

Last thing I hit was a deer on the way to VA. Bumped it in the ass with a 39.5" Bogger. The driver's side front tire was the only thing that contacted it, even the bumper cleared the poor thing.

for starters, an exboyfriend. (you could see where his face slid up my windshield and the dent in the roof where his head hit) way too many trees to even begin counting, a canoe that was hidden in the tall grass. oh, and more trees
