On the other hand he can call one of those ambulance chaser lawyers on TV and he has two commercial vehicle insurance policies to milk. |

I only wonder what would have happened if he was in the new Ford truck with the aluminum body and frame.

A modern German sedan would have held up much better. I'm now reevaluating my desire for a crew cab Chevy truck. You better do some looking at some car vs 18 wheeler crash pictures than. A BMW, Mercedes or anything else isn't going to save your ass in a mess like that. There just isn't any way 2 tons will hold up to being hit by an 18 wheeler loaded or not. |

That wreck kept me from visiting my mother who is ill yesterday
 I've never seen an Interstate completely barricaded/closed off like that before yesterday.
Oh well, if the roads were that bad, it was probably for the best anyway. Glad no one was killed. |

Was this from that big 150 car pile up, where there was the video that shows semi's sliding into the mess a 50mph+?

Bigfeet FWIW, the frames on the new Fords are not aluminum. Even though everyone seems to think so.
