Glad to see your ok. Thats nothing a cab and bed swap cant fix. As long as the frame isnt tweeked its an easy fix, if you plan on saving it.

Oh man................ :shok::sad::bawling::bawling::bawling::bawling: I am so sorry that this happened to you.

I know how much work you put into this and it's killing me right now that it's totaled. I mean, your freakin' roof is nearly ripped off the A-pillar!!

If you find another ranger, we will do our best to help you out with re-construction.

Man, that sure is not a pretty site! You're both safe is what counts. Looked at your sig to see where you're from and it said; "Used For: Gettin down and dirty". Don't think you really meant it like this. Lots of good Rangers to pick from, good luck.

WOW, doesn't look like that's where you want to be... Glad to hear you're alright... sad to see that the truck's totaled off. But the main thing is that you're all good. A cab and bed swap would likely be the easiest fix, IMO.

...need I insert woman driver joke? No? Okay.

Let's hear it. I feel like I need a swift kick in the ass for that dicision. But the truck is cruuently I the driver side tires and the pass side tires are in the air. A thick trunk of brush stopes us from going to the bottwm wich would be about 6 more rolls. But I think it was rolling pretty fast the pass side is pretty streight but the driver side is beat to living hell!!

Dude it was unreal we switch seat I was like ok put it in gear and give it a little gas we were I a road not even starting wheeling and she punched it and drove right off the damn cliff I tryed to grab the wheel but it was way to late. After we check out ok visually I yelled at her at the top ofmy lungs for about a 1hr 30 min cause we had to walk to my aunts ranch no cell service and she was bear foot after the crash.

Thanks again for everyone concern :) I'm just glad we both walked out with scratches and bump up head.
