I just can’t tell from the pictures how you managed to roll your truck?????

 

[Derrick C.]

It use to be in the whoops forum but was deleted. Its a long story but all in all I was being a bad driver while wheelin and it almost killed my best friend in the world and myself.

We were looking down at a falls in the river and I was in 4-low not even on the gas pedal at all. I didn't see a 3 foot drop off and did a really slow roll. The roof of my truck was about 4 to 5 feet from the ledge.

Change of undies?

Wow, you're pretty lucky, my friend....I'm sure you already knew that, though. Nice looking truck, though. Similar to what I had originally wanted to do with an Explorer...stupid me had to go buy a limited with good paint, though. Now I just can't bring myself to off-road.

When I first saw those pictures where you had rolled your Explorer I almost GASPED for air! My god man, you sure were close to the edge! But good thing nothing serious happened!

All the best,

So what kind of damage did it do(if any)? I bet you want an roll bar now!!!! lata

 

[Derrick C.]

I do have a roll cage now. It took a roll to get one but I got one now. The damage was 2 new doors, a fender, a complete clutch overhaul, and that side of my truck repainted. A total of $5300 was the cost to fix. Well costed my insurance!

eeeeeeeeeeeeeek!!

I wet my pants just looking at it. You missed the 300ft drop by 5 feet!!? Seriously, I think I'm going to add a roll bar to my budget now!!
