PIT maneuver vs. 23 Lightning PRO

[NoRegretFORD]

Disclaimer: Not a police chase!

Clipped by Chevy S10 striking behind passenger rear wheel, sent into spin, t-boned guard rail, bounced back into spin, bounced back around wrapping around end of guard rail into ditch.

Snowy interstate, 55 mph.

Drivable, unable to access frunk, passenger side 100% involved. Gas engine wouldn't have survived due to extreme damage to frunk.

Sluggish to start charging, decide to charge at public charging so if started fire, wouldn't torch the house.

Predicted to be totaled, hopefully.

Hate that happened to you hope everyone is ok! Shame to lose another azure gray model out there. Hopefully you can find another one to replace it with if Insurance claims it a total loss.

Disappointing. I thought maybe you fled from Arkansas State Police and we were going to see an epic video.

So, did the S10 lose control and clip you? Looks like a total, to me, Hope You and passengers are ok, days after...

Sounds like everyone is ok, thank goodness. It's sad every time we lose another of these amazing trucks.

I spun out once of my own ignorance when I lived in Ohio. Haven grown up in Phoenix, AZ I was not accustomed to driving in the snow. I changed lanes too quickly and found myself spinning across oncoming traffic lanes. Thankfully it was late at night and there was no on coming traffic. I found myself on the curb and only my pride was injured when the guy I was trying to pass came back to check on me. I drive A LOT more carefully now in that kind of weather. I hope the S10 driver was not being careless and simply lost traction themself.

Pro? 100% totalled. Sorry for your accident, but glad you are okay. Lots of smokin' deals out there on your next one.

Isn't that what the insurance companies are doing these days? Totaling the car with even minor damage, then giving you an offensively low check. All the while selling the carcass to Coparts or some such outfit at roughly the same price they're giving you for your truck. Feels like a scam. That was my most recnt experience. Maybe it's just the low quality insurance companies.
