Spun 90+ degrees and entered a steep ditch on the opposite side of the road bass-ackwards and landed on the side of the truck. Had to roll down driver side window and pop out the opening. Really cremed it good, cab bent, bed don't line up with the cab, windshield busted out, rear window, right windows, blown rf tire, she's pretty much a total I'd say. Right shoulder pretty sore, but I'm ok, no am'blance called or anything. Probably get a new Colorado. Ticks me off 'cuz I really like the little gas hog, it was a Chevy S10 with the ZR2 package.
DANG!
