    Hey, I haven't posted anything on here in years but recently I was involved in a hit and run. My truck was parked, I wasn't in the vehicle, or even around when it happened. Currently waiting on insurance to see what they say/do. But from the looks of it, I believe it's only damage to the bed. It's still drivable also.

    So just seeing, what do you guys think? Have you replaced the bed with an OEM, did you find something better?

    Also, it's really just a daily driver, don't have plans to take it off road, but was gonna put a small lift kit on it next month. It's got about 181,000 was doing fine.

    Yeah already considering just a new truck altogether. Really just depends on what insurance will quote me on it. But open to anything at this point

    For a 2009, you might be looking at a total loss.

    If that's the case, you could look at buying it back for cheap and using some of those dollars to replace the bed if you're so inclined.
