    Iam not 100%, but I think San Antoino. If ANY part are salvalgeable off your 04 you could probably sell them to them to some of these 1st gen guys. FYI

    Nationwide gave me 18,000 for it (04 80,000miles) and I got a few things off of it before I had to give them the title. But I wish I could afford to keep it I would be having a big first gen sale if I could keep it.:playball:

    Holy hell...I just traded in my 2004 with 55,000 miles on it and the dealer gave me $14,000. It was in excellent shape - very clean.

    You got a great deal there!

    The height of your truck probably had a lot to do with why you’re in such great shape after such an accident. Looks like she went under the truck? Hope the young girl makes it through.

    Yeah I am originally from Lake Charles, LA, I came to the Houston area about a year and a half ago for a job and then met a girl and you know how they complicate things so I guess I am here for a while. She teaches at the high school.
