First off, I'm OK. Tonight someone pulled out in front of me and I didn't quite have enough time to react. It looked like just a fender bender on the outside, but something is now wrong with my engine. I love my truck though. I have an '02 Chevy S10 Blazer that's got a 2/3 drop and I've had it since 2008. She's got almost 218K miles on her, but up until tonight the truck was running perfectly fine. Now, I'm hoping all that's wrong is a few busted engine mounts.
Since the truck is so old and has so many miles on it there's a good chance the repairs are going to exceed the KBB value. If that's the case I'll be sad to see the truck go, but I've gotten over 4 years out of a truck I paid 4K for.
The silver lining in this is that I really want a '67-'72 Chevy C10 and if my truck is totaled it'll be time to move on. I'm all about a short bed, but I'm not COMPLETELY opposed to a long bed. My next tuck may be something along these lines.
