Off road lover or show truck lover, this sucks balls


Well, the story on this is my brother built this truck, took it to sema and show cased it. He put it up for around 80k on ebay and got a buyer, the buyer paid cash and took the truck ( this is in texas ) 2 hours after the deal, the new owner ( a retired navy seal ) his wife and child were driving on the freeway. A 1999 Mitsubishi GT clipped the rear tire at 60 mph causing the truck to loose control and flip\roll a couple of times. Thanks to the $1000 roof rack, the roof didn't cave in. The family was ok, the truck wasn't. The truck can be replaced, the family cannot. My brother is getting a crew together to build the family a new truck, my family has plenty of money and that 80k doesn't mean anything. So I will update on the build, I'm in california my brother is in Texas so I'll update, here are some pictures:

If a member here is in Texas, keep on the look out for said car, color red with a missing turn signal on passenger side with missing paint

Good lord. I can't imagine going down the freeway, and out of nowhere, your sliding upside down at 60 mph.

Glad to hear the family is okay. Sucks about the truck. The graphics are not my style, but it's a pretty cool truck none the less.

I'm not sure if it hit the wheel or the axle.. The wheels/tires snapped off when rolling
