IB, after getting smacked in the rear, do you know what the front impacted?

That was some hit; amazing there was no serious injury(s).

I knew Rams had weak frames so does this prove it? Of course this would not be said if injuries were the story. I bet the driver is both very sad and very happy including the semi driver.

Same thing happened to my wife but it was a Chevy Dmax that did the hitting. What did you get pushed into? My wife was pushed into a pontoon boat. Did you see it coming to brace yourself?

Is that your truck? I thought yours was SRW?

The shorter wheel base should make it easier to park. It's always good when no one gets hurt.
