When everything was all final said and done, I came out with a wreck truck a loan payment still and no money to buy another truck or fix the one I got. That’s what I get for following the rules paying my loan on time paying my insurance on time taking care of things I get the shaft.

My engine is got 105k miles. It runs great. Def system in deleted( looks like it’s there ) no regeneration ever. Regular oil changes and tire rotation. What got me the most was when the insurance wanted to give me $200.00 for my brand new, less than 30 days old, $900+ tires. I bitched and they...

Absolutely, but they did not get my truck. I drove it home from the body shop, shattered windshield, I just pushed the glass to the side and drove slow. I live about 6 miles from where it was. Insurance adjuster was not real happy with my decision. But I am happy with it.

I drive the truck home yesterday. Going to start parting it out.

I brought the truck home yesterday. Drive it home with no windshield. I will take a look and see how to get tail Lights out.

Thank you for the information.

With the def system deleted, my truck never has to regen.

I am gathering knowledge on the situation. I just want to make the best decision for myself and other ecodiesel owners.

I would try and sell the truck as a whole. Or find a cab for it and replace the cab.

I just put a little over $900 in tires on it, insurance gave me $450.

If I let the insurance company take it, they will sell it to a salvage auction for the 5400. Highest bidder buys the truck from auction, they can fix it or part it out. So I am thinking that instead of everyone else making money off my truck, I will keep it and make the money to buy another truck.

That is what I am thinking.

I can buy it back for 5400( salvage) They say the value is a little over 21k.
