My Mounty, My Truck, My Pride... My story

[SPARKY7713]

The url is to my site with pictures of my mounty.
They will be the last, on 8-21-03, I rolled my mounty on a hill next to a freeway. It was 5:45 in the morning, what a wake up, when I rolled it. I rolled it about 3 to 5 times. The pics are with my 3"BL then with my TT and schackles I added on. Then the best photos the tow yard wouldn't let me take. I'll get more when my insurance company tows it to there facility.

I think this was one of the nicest Mountys. If I don't say so myself, I told my wife that I was done, all the mods I wanted were done,because I just put my kkm in maybe 2 weeks ago and that was it.

I'm sorry to hear that, man. Is there no way to save the truck? The truck looks nice. Maybe you could get the truck back from the insurance company and sell parts of it or something. Maybe you get enough for a down payment on a new one.

im sorry to hear that man. that was a nice truck. i know how you feel i totaled my mustang back in 1997 i hit a stone wall. well good luck on your next vehicle. what do you think it will be?

 

[Black Magic]

That Sucks! Are you going to buy it back? Then you can get perry fenders and fix it up better than ever!

Seems like everyone is rolling their trucks.

Glad you're ok. Goodluck with everything.

 

[Mbrooks420]

Glad you weren't seriously injured. And yes, there has been a lot of rollings lately.

Then the best photos the tow yard wouldn't let me take.

Thats BS. I would have taken any pictures I had wanted.

Sorry to hear that. Just went through a total/get new veh. situation myself. PIA even though I'm my own ins. agent.
So....What happened to cause your truck to roll?

 

[SPARKY7713]

my next vechile probaly be a f-150 extra cab, so i can fit the kids in. Just got my wife a jimmy so I don't need an suv anymore anyway.

I fell asleep for a split second behind the wheel, that is what caused me to crash. It sounds dumb I know.

The paramedics looked at it and one looked at me and asked me if I was sure I was driving. He told me how lucky I was.

 

[SPARKY7713]

And no I don't think I'm going to buy it back. If you see it I don't think you would either. Can't wait to get more photos to show you guys what 2 second mistake can do to a really cool truck.

I'd have to agree with that

 

[Crankcase]

That sucks. Did the police give you any trouble for dangerous driving or anything?

Yeah, Crank down here in the states they call it wreckless driving.

Man that was a crazy roll over. It even made your stereo fly out!




HA

 

[SPARKY7713]

No trouble from the cops, it took a CHP about an hour to get there. So he only talked to me for about 2 min.

OOH DAYAM!! That WAS a nice truck I fell asleep at the wheel once... But I was in the middle of the desert and ended up just running over some sage brush. After that I told myself that if I got tired that I would pull over and sleep if necissary.

Sorry for your loss. Click the link in my profile and you will see my 2001 Sport Trac rolled. Been there and it will emotionally hurt for a good year before you let go a bit. Once again sorry. Glad your okay.
