square body enthusiast nightmare

So I'm driving home from work several weeks back and I see a nice square for sale on the side of the road. I make a U turn and stop to take a look at it. It showed to have approx 50k miles on it. From the look of the body, interior and pedals I would say that the odometer was accurate. They were asking 4995$. A couple days later it was gone and I knew some lucky person was happy to have it. Now this is where the nightmare part begins. I was talking to a friend at work about the truck and he told me that he seen where a car lost control, jumped the ditch and t boned the truck. When driving home I looked and could see where the ditch and grass was torn up. I would've much rather just went on thinking some high school kid wad enjoying a beautiful square body! lol

Re: square body enthusiast nightmare

So I stop by to see if I could get the truck for parts. Turns out he let the insurance company take the truck because it was totaled out. I was hoping to pick the truck up for a little bit of nothing.

Well I don't really want to spend the money to buy a truck I don't really need. I was just hoping to pick at it and buy a few things I could use.

Re: square body enthusiast nightmare

That's a bad deal for that poor truck. It's weird how things work. I mean, the truck that went off the road couldn't have left the road 50ft sooner?
