for the "yellow dart" fans on this board.
apparently it snapped one of the 4 bars near the Heim end and rolled over about 4-5 times at HMP. Driver was ok but shaken up.

I dont think its coming back from this wreck

little bondo duct tape and super glue and it will be good as new. seriously though, good to hear he is ok. too bad it had to be a LUV, and a stepside one at that.

Man, thats a heartbreaker for sure. It's a good thing that you're still healthy cause you'll need to get busy building your new machine. Good luck to you and let us know what your new plan is.
