Gutted?
As in no seats, no dash, no wiring, no doors, no carpet, no interior whatsoever?
Around 500 pounds.

Pulltilbroke and I are leaving to pick up a truck in Colorado to-morrow with a fabulous loaded cab still sitting on it, among other things.

Yup, I had 14 inches of white stuff on the deck this morning. It was like sand, I started to shovel and wasn't happy. :( I think we only got another 2-3 inches in the course of the day.

Ike, I could roll my bare cab around by myself. Flip it up on it's back and down again. I wouldn't have guessed it weighs 500 lbs, but I won't argue with Mark, he's the MAN! ;)

Not until now, no. Damn, I don't even know what to say. That is terrible news and hopefully his 1stgen family can do something for him. I can't give anything monetary but I'd like to at least do something for him.

I sure did. Although I'm not sure how much, I will definitely give something in the very near future.

Yeah! My buddy called me and told me to watch it, I had to watch it 3 times and he was laughing in my ear the whole time. He said he's seen it over 20 times, and there are other videos of it beating other cars and trucks.
