daym. But on the light side, they should pay for damages for improperly securing loose items

What a dumb ass, I hate those clowns that drive around with shit flying off the back of their trucks. I saw a guy with a NNBS Avalanche with a whole pallet of bricks and the top portion of the stack was only being held by pallet wrap. He was flying past me on the highway with the bumper dragging, and of course he got off at the same exit ans was in front of me. Every time he tried to accelerate from a stop light, the top couple layers of brick were about to slide over the tailgate because the super duper pallet wrap was about to give way.

Had the same thing happen a couple months ago in Wichita Falls, I was going about 75, this full size tire and wheel ends up right in my lane, cars on both sides i had no time to react, it was in my lifted ranger so it could have been worse, broke my brand new mud tire and alignment was off. Kept control though

insurance should cover it (assuming you have full coverage) and it'll be characterized as a hit and run then it sounds like...

Are you from Wichita Falls?? Thought it was odd seeing that as that's where I live.

Will a HD hood not fit on our kons? I want one next year.

It's not bolt on like it is for the nbs Tahoe's. With slight modifications it can be done though. Depends on what kinda skrills ya got :)

OP sorry for the bad luck... hopefully insurance money will be able to buy you many mods :Handshake:
