    I think the tailgate may have pulled on the right bed-side and deformed it. Could be messy.

    Looks like the tree caught it before it really did a number on your truck!

    Pretty crazy looking accident.

    ^ this, think you got lucky, if you want to call it that, that the tree was there. Could have been a lot worse. Hard to tell for sure, but doesn't look that bad. How's the tailgate open and close?
