    I will say I am glad your wife was ok

    If it was mine she would wish she did not survive the crash

    This had nothing to do with any damage done to the vehicle after her driving through several garage doors forever forgetting to disconnect the light plug on the horse trailer I was used to fixing her mistakes .

    Please I think we are all waiting for the rest of the story.

    If she was taking a short Cut through a field and misjudged the opening between the trees it happens

    Pickups handle a lot differently than passenger cars. Maybe some of the wrecks are from people new to the pickup game? It always takes me a few hours behind the wheel of a rental/friend's car to feel 100% confident in my driving ability. I think it is a visual perception thing.

    Now I'd be hunting for a mostly new '15 and would have no trouble slapping a super charger on it. What is she gonna say? Probability nothing.

    I'm not judging. No one was hurt. That's the most important part.

    I guess you don't need to worry about the u-bolts, u-joints, fluid levels, diff breather mod, rattles, new car smell, or a lift kit.

    Glad she's okay.

    I think this might be the move for all the folks who regret getting the crappy AUTO -- But couldn't figure out how to get the MANUAL that they now realize they want!
