    Well I was driving up to a near by city that has a ski resort. We were going there to snowboard.

    I own a 2006 4x4 Chevy Silverado 3/4 ton diesel Crew cab. It was snowing all day up there and I ended up hitting some ice and lost control (idoit me, I didn't have the 4x4 on). I ended up sliding off the road and flipping my truck over and stopping on my roof. The whole passanger side is screwed up and the roof is craved in. It was me and 3 of my buddies in the truck. We all had seatbelts on and we all walked away with not a scratch on us.

    I will be posting some picks of it when I look over it with my adjuster. Just thought I tell you all my story ;)

    Damn you had a nice truck, shame that it got all busted up though. At least you or your buddies didn't get ----ed up though.

    Seatbelts win in every way. Ouch about the truck though.

    as lame as it is that your truck got screwed, thank god it wasn't you or your friends. when you think about it, you all got pretty lucky seeing as the truck flipped over and no one was hurt. i'm glad everyone is okay :D

    wow, you had a very close call, good job you guys were all wearing seatbelts or you could be telling us a totally different story.

    I am glad that you are all ok :)
