Default Would you believe.......

Well I should tell the story before ya see the photos. This was my first week working for this mob and the first time I drove the ute. It was ranning and it was late on a friday so I wanted to get home. I reversed back from where I was parked and didn't think about the A frame. I put it in drive put my foot down a bit as the ute got going I reached for my seatbelt to plug it in wouldn't have been going faster then 25kph then BANG.. I thought what the hell. I looked to see what the hell I had run into. Nothing there so I opened the door and when I went to step out it didn't feel right, it seemed to be a big step. Then it kicked in the A frame...
Then I seen this...




The next thing to do was to ring the Boss lol.. Told him the A frame would be ok but the ute was no good.. It was stuck I did try to get it out but it wouldn't move(towbar was stuck) we got the truck in and pulled it out. I then drove it out the way I came in then we put it on the truck to be taken away. When he strapped it down it was just about back to normal nice and flat well ya could still see but looked heaps better then when I drove it last. Ok hope ya see the bolts didn't snap, the A frame was used again and the ute got wrote off.. I hope ya's like my story.
