The Absolute Worst Has Happened!
 

Well we will let the photos do the talking. :(

I was going about 30-35 and was on a road where there was trees on each side and then there was open fields and sod fields on each side where a gust of wind took me for a ride and after it started sliding, that was it. I hit a marker poll, about 8-10 metal fence polls and 80 feet of barbed wire fencing.

Re: The Absolute Worst Has Happened!
 

Jeeze!

all those scratches are going to add up to a hefty bill, full insurance im assuming?

Re: The Absolute Worst Has Happened!
 

I got a friend that does body work if you are interested.
This weather is messing up everyone's day. -30 windchill tomorrow.

Re: The Absolute Worst Has Happened!
 

Ouch! That sucks! Hopefully they dont have to repaint the whole truck, I was expecting worse though, atleast no real body damage.

Re: The Absolute Worst Has Happened!
 

Ya full coverage and its getting fixed at Raymond in St. Paul which I have researched and found that they are the best around unless anyone else has a place they reccomend. Where I go they will fix it to be BETTER then showroom thats for dam sure because this truck was perfect before today unfortunately.

Re: The Absolute Worst Has Happened!
 

Well the worst is underneath where the 10 polls rapped up everything under the body. There is alot more damage then what you can see in the photos as well like interior trim busted up and all of the ground effects are fractured along with my $1,100 exhaust! The box is twisted by over 1/2 inch as well.

Ouch! Does Raymond use a baking booth to cure the paint? I had some bodywork done at Gale's in Blaine and they did an awesome job. They have a booth to bake the paint on.

Sears in Plymouth is the best Minnesota has to offer according to Don @ Dent Kraft (whom I trust). They fixed my fender when an evil flying lugnut got it. Not sure if they'd work on a Chevy though so you'd have to ask (they might since you have a specialty model).

Re: The Absolute Worst Has Happened!
 

That sucks! Just curious, but how do you slide that far only going 30-35 mph? An alternative to Raymond is the shop I work at. Fairway Collision and Automotive. It would be kind of a haul for you though, the shop is in Vadnais Heights.

I was exadurating on the barbed wire slide but it was down hill a bit too.

OMFG that sucks Kerry!

Re: The Absolute Worst Has Happened!
 

I might be changing my mind. I have been there and forgot about them for some reason. Thanks Kracka!

Re: The Absolute Worst Has Happened!
 

Ya it really does. So much for some projects I had going on for the spring time with my car.

Anyone that needs parts for dsm's should buy my stuff so I can pay for the deductible. Please people help me out here.

Check out my FS threads!

Re: The Absolute Worst Has Happened!
 

Ouch, that's some heavy damage from what you described. The roads were definitely icy today.

Re: The Absolute Worst Has Happened!
 

OMG that sucks dude!!! Sorry to hear about this.. but are you ok??? And I thought you had AWD so whats up with 30-35mph and sliding with AWD..............

Re: The Absolute Worst Has Happened!
 

It was really icy out today, 4 wheel/all wheel sometimes doesnt even help!

Re: The Absolute Worst Has Happened!
 

Ya nothing helped. Once it slid out it was done.

Re: The Absolute Worst Has Happened!
 

Bummer... thats a nice looking truck.. gl on getting everything fixed!!
