This truck saved my life today, RIP old friend. Airbag slap to the face, will miss it. A bit tossed up and feel sick.

Sorry to hear that J. Glad you're OK. Vehicles can be replaced; people can't.
Will miss seeing your truck on the forums. Good luck with the insurance etc, and the hunt for a new vehicle.
What kind of accident was it?

3/4 ton dodge ram slammed on brakes in front and I couldn’t stop in time. Hit him at about 35 miles per hour. He drove away when I called the police.

Sorry to hear, but as much as it sucks, it's ultimately just a truck.

Holy crap JE, glad to hear that you are ok but what a dick to drive off like that! Insurance is the "worry-remover".. While it doesn't solve for every dollar, it sure makes this stuff easier to deal with. I hope this "replacement process" goes smoothly for you bud.

Really sucks, I'm sorry for your loss but glad you came out safe!
Others have mentioned insurance, I'm curious as to if you even had full coverage on a 12 yr old truck. I know I have it on my 05 Sub but people tell me it's a waste of money on anything over 10yrs old. Because insurance won't give you near enough to replace or fix them. That's why they are considered totalled so easily.

I do have it fully insured with collision but I’m not expecting anything significant from the ins. Co. It’s a 2007, they will give me bottom dollar trade in maybe a grand or so.

The extra cost for the longer ones is probably less in a used vehicle than a new one. Ford is real proud of those extra inches in the Max/EL versions when they sell them new.

I’m half between what to do. I’m going to check out the Limited EL which is only a few years newer than my 07’. I also may go check out a 15+, don’t know if I need that payment right now.
F-150s are also tempting, not sure the 5.0 would do it for me or not. Guess I should test drive.
