Thank you! That is the important thing. Cool that I had a few people stop and check on me. Front and rear quarter and a wheel. Still inline and drivable. Was going to get on the tire thread and say how much I like my good years kind of glad I didn't now lol. It's my own fault anyway and not the tires but damn.
Glad to hear your not hurt and that it's still drivable!

GT glad it wasn’t any worse than it was. Things can be replaced. Glad you’re still with us. Even if the wallet is lighter! 👍🏼
Good luck with the surgery.

@5Cent any help would be appreciated…I’m scratching my head trying to figure out the problem. I noticed when unlocking my truck all the lights would come on, except the high mount. So I took the high mount out and noticed the center of the bulb is blown. So, I had went to the store to get a new bulb for it. The lights from the high mount won’t light up. Figured maybe fuse is fried. So I went check the fuse…it’s fine to me. Any idea? In the picture which I circled blue is the bulb that were blown. Any idea? @Quantum673 @giles

I was in my truck to look for cargo switch and o found it so I push it on…the both of lights work except the center bulb. So when locking the truck the high mount still on and rest of the light we’re off. I think I prolly need to put in a new socket for the one in center. Might be fried? From looking at the socket like the bulb were hot before it blown

Just a few days short of a year and 9,000 miles after purchase...it isn't wrecked and I haven't done anything beyond the grill and tires. It's gonna need brakes soon and has a wheel hub starting to make some noise. Radio still does what it wants, when it wants. It's a thirsty sumbitch. I would buy another one. My biggest complaint would be these tiny beds. Probably just need to buy a trailer soon and get over it.

Happened to look down before starting her for the day, happy 40K to snow white.

She's now 3yrs 5mnths old and lifetime average mpg on the DIC is 13.8. She holds steady in the 15-16 range of mixed driving daily. Will give her new fluids head to toe at 50K to ensure plenty of more good years ahead, couldn't be happier with the new gasser over a diesel. Especially everytime I fill it up and see those prices.
