Wow. Totaled by a minivan that probably drove home. :jaw:
Yep. Once you start cutting off the back half of your frame and the floor out of your bed, not much structural integrity left... PLUS... insurance companies are not going to pay for all of the fabrication that is needed to "fix" it and have it happen all over again the next time somebody rear ends him as 20 mph.

:lol:

That sucks, but hopefully they'll pay him for the extras and not just what a Colorado is worth that year, unfortunately I highly doubt it.
IIRC unless you specifically insure the vehicle with all the custom features, no. If he does get covered, it will be to replace parts/labor as if it were stock or factory.

That's what I'm thinking too. Unless he happened to insure it for the work, which most people don't, he's most likely just getting what the truck is worth.

You can't do that much custom work and not get screwed if it gets totaled. It sucks, but most insurance pays as if a vehicle was stock. If the minivan's insurance pays up with the black tails, he may get a better deal.

i was following an Escalade today... the damn tail lights were so dark... it was really hard to see when he was on his brakes.
Somebody should shoot the stupid bastard... he is too damn stupid to still be breathing...

I agree with him. Dark ass taillights are a pain in the ass to be following. It makes me have to put my phone down and actually pay attention!

I've never seen the fish ones before. I'm betting there's some folks here where I live that would love those. :lol:

The worst covers are the ones that shrink down the tail light area down to like an inch vertical strip!

I have almost run into a couple people because of those...:fume:
