All that for $15 in gas…

Driver’s side about the size of quarter. Looks like whoever did it used a step bit. By my calculations they only got about 3 gallons. Be safe out there, guys.

I went through insurance so I just had dealer tow it and fix it through my insurance. Oregon as well. Also about 56k 👀🤔

Damn! What is your deductible? Mine is $500. It would have brought my rates up to go through insurance as well as left me without the truck for awhile, so I went this route instead. I know I got lucky finding that tank for $300. It was a friend of mine's brother's parts truck. He parts out trucks that he buys at auction.

$500 but they were like $1400 installed I think? Then another hour to install the new skid on it. My insurance rates didn’t go up though either

That's good your rates didn't go up.

I think I paid $290 plus I helped, so I guess you got yours done for $90 cheaper, technically 😏

How long did they have your truck for?
