    He hit a four door sedan, that then rolled 4 times. Trooper says it was that guys fault, but I don't get the police report till Monday. He says he was in the right lane of 21 going 60, about to pass a guy in the left lane going 20-30ish, then that guy veared into the right lane, F150 ramed, guy then gassed it or something and flipped into the median. This was around midnight last night. Dunno if he was drunk or fell aslepp. It was an older guy. Somewhere between the airport and Wixon Valley.

    F150 doesnt look too bad, but needs bumper, upper valence, lower valence, fog light, tow hook. The frame is poking through the bumper and looks ****ed. He is in a neck brace, so I couldn't punch him in the throat. The kid is a ****ing magnet for **** happening to him

    I noticed that too. Looks like the factory tow hooks can still be used though. Stupid expensive though.

    So the police report was a joke full of typos and inconsistencies., but it blamed my brother for teh accident and failure to control speed. Progressive,(mine and my brothers insurance) determine fault to be on the other driver, going against what the report said. A week ago, I finally called the other insurance company and asked them what was going on, as we had not heard from anyone. They had no idea the car had been wrecked, so I started a claim then. Sent them pictures, and my highest estimate. They called me this morning and said the would be sending me a check Uhh, ok, sounds good to me.

    The car was a corporate rental, guess it was too much of a hassle....I win? I dunno, I am still wary, but we will see.

    I got it torn down today. It needs 1 bracket on that side that I couldnt see with it all still on the truck.

    Pic below is a Buckstop. Still pretty expensive, then would have to pay for shipping.

    Or just the standard ranch hand. I think these are 875 installed, but I would have to figure out if I could make the winch work.

    Cheapest way out of this to to buy the replacement parts via Advance and put it back together and pocket the rest of the money. Not sure yet.

    Sparling, I don't think I need what Keystone is calling the bumper cover(the painted piece below the headlights. Just the bumper, lower valence, fog light, both drivers side bumper brackets, and one plastic bracket that supports the 'bumper cover'

    Don't get a ranch hand, they kind of suck. Don't fit lines of truck so well, powdercoat will rust after a couple years, not real clean workmanship. Overall just a little ****ty.

    These are good stuff, and the same price.
