Well, I left the house this morning to go to work and found this parked where my truck used to be:

I think somebody broke your truck's back

Someone stole your truck and left a broken one in its place? Those bastards!

How the heck did they drive away after doing that much damage to your truck?

Remember what they did to that Toyota down the street from me Steven? That dude got at least 2 blocks before he had to ditch his van.

They even ran of with the rear wheel and left a rusty on in its place.

now i know chevys arent built that great but i didnt think a little snow would destroy them.

yea yea yea... I know my truck is a pile, but it used to run great and it never gave me any problems!

Now, in this picture, my truck was parked 10 feet away to the right from that driveway and my truck got pushed up onto the curb, and about 25 feet forward.

By the looks of the indent on the rear of the truck, it was a big truck, or an SUV and it was silver.

My neighbor heard it and heard some people talking at around 1:30am last night. Said that it sounded like at least one person was really hurt. What a jerk for not calling the cops. But yea I'm going in to the cop-shop tomorrow to see if they can investigate the emergency room records for last night at around 2am.

How can you not fucking hear that? I wake up when I hear people shut their car doors, let alone a truck going 35+ smashing into another truck... :la:

looks like a hell of a lot more than 35mph - but seriously i wake up to animals walking through the lawn - a car wreck would make me jump so high out of bed i'd land in my pants on my way out the front door.

Yeah, I don't know though... Was it slick/snowing last night?

Chris-Nelson · Post by **Chris-Nelson** » Fri Oct 20, 2006 8:04 pm

The snow from the pictures is brand new. It snowed from about 11pm on and off until 7:00am this morning. I'm sure the roads were very slick all last night.

The house in the picture is across the street from my house, and I sleep in the bedroom farthest away from the road, and on top of that I'm a very heavy sleeper. So yea, didn't hear a thing.

Wish I did, I'd have ran out there and took pics before the scumbag got away.

News says east bay will hit 90 tomorrow.

I may wax.

Sorry about the truck

:thumbleft: i'm officially jealous... But, I'm going to grill tomorrow in the snow for lunch!! :afrocool:

I wonder if he hit it at 60 and backed it up onto the curb....

If the roads were slick, he had to have hit it going fast, and it should have slid a lot farther. He bent your truck! How do you do that!?

1 part rust,
1 part compression

haha oh yeah...

probably would have done that to itself on a good pot hole then. Nevermind! :thumbleft:

arn't chevy trucks from that era, known for their frames buckleing? Ive heard of that kind of thing happening from carrying heavy loads, but not from an accident.

p8ntman442 · Post by **p8ntman442** » Sun Oct 22, 2006 8:22 pm

ah, NO

My father (farmer) uses stens and they are really really durable. cab rot yes, but frame rot not so much.

His 95 gmc, has a second frame on the back because it rotted off already. (possible canadian import flood victim)

Ive seen a nissan from that era break in half from a mason loading it with stone.
