m Matthew I live in Oklahoma city. I lost my job in august 2024 and have been working on finding another one. I tried to file unemployment but was denied. I ran out of funds as I have spent it on bills and repairs to my truck which was a huge asset in finding work and supporting my family. My disabled mother lives with me and my wife. October 28th 2024 I was going through a green light when I was t boned from a driver who ran a red light. It caused my truck to slam in another truck and rolled me over on my drivers door. Instantly I heard flames and saw fire. My wife was in the truck with me and was tossed around and landed on me. Immediately after checking if she was ok she told me to get her out of here. We both scrambled to get on our feet and after trying to get the passenger door open but it was jammed. Only thing I could do was kick the windshield open . I kicked a big enough hole and got my wife out where she was met by a pedestrian who got her away from burning truck. I than got my self out and was helped to the side of road. Within a min later the truck blew up. And nothing is left of the truck it melted everything. It's a true miracle both of us are alive . We sustained injuries and the memories haunt us. I had been restoring the truck a 93 f150 xlt classic and put a custom brand new 300 hp engine. High performance breaks suspension. Rebuilt transmission etc. I spent my life savings in that truck. Probably spent 25000 and will be lucky if I get a quarter of it back. I lost my way of life in minutes it was all gone. Insurance company won't come close to compensate me for what I lost . The other driver claims he had right away which is a lie. So I'm stuck now no vehicle no job and I don't have a way to support me or my family . I have faith and know somehow I will pull through this but I can't even get my wife to work. It's really hard. I don't like to beg or ask for help. But I don't know what else to do I've lost so much and just need a break. I feel if I could buy another old truck nothing too expensive just something to get me around I could find work and slowly get back up. Me and my wife also have dr appointments to go to and need a way there so we can get the proper treatment. Anything helps and would go towards another vehicle. I've been looking at other 93 f150s and seen one for 2000. Thanks for reading my story and God bless.
