Raptor rear ended

[Jimbo]

Looks like there's no gas leak, the DTE calculator was freaking out. Also, ride quality is back to what it was pre wreck. Wtf lol

Get it checked out ASAP. As for a rear bumper @Scrap man has a nice SVC V1 he's selling, and he's fairly close (Ohio).

Yeah, she took a beating. Get. Your truck. Checked out properly bro, could be stuff you don't see. Check and see if the front of the box hit or scraped the back of the cab!

Hope this won't be too bad for your truck...

Your rear sensors are still working ?

This sucks man, driving to get it all fixed up and boom. I would definitely get the frame checked.

I got rear ended too. Didn't seem to be as bad as yours and I went right to body shop to get it checked out. Fortunately, I didn't have anything major but the guy did check out everything to make sure. Better safe than sorry.

Same type of thing happend to me... Mine was from a Jeep. There was hidden damage to the hitch and surrounding metal that was covered by the plastic cap.

Thanks to @HAYNES OFFROAD, replacement of the bumper hitch assembly (6 bolts and a bunch of electrical connectors) got me back on the road!

Damage hidden under the cap. Sorry for the crooked picture, not a lot of room in the garage.

Looks pretty much identical to my bumper. Tomorrow finding out the extent of the damage. I'm hoping for it to be fairly minimal, but if you saw her car the odds are things are worse under my truck than visible. I barely felt the impact though. The lady who hit me is doing okay, turns out that car is just a company car and she's a bank director here in Michigan. I'm going to be in good hands with her company insurance I feel like. She was very nice, and very apologetic, and ironically told me her husband wanted to buy a Raptor but she was on the fence about it, but at the accident scene she called her husband and told him to buy it immediately lol. I'm not sweating it too much. I'm just going to be in Michigan for longer than I expected which is a bummer and hurts my wallet. All in all, pending what damages are done to the truck, I think this situation could not have gone any better for myself or really for the lady who hit me. Yes, the 300 crumpled like a tin can, but for her to walk away fine (her hand ended up not being broken) from hitting a 6000lb wall of steel at 75mph, I'd have to say the car did it's job in protecting her. That being said, the passenger airbag shattered the windshield which is a little concerning.

The airbags always break the windshield. they push the dash pad up and that is what breaks the windshield. I found out the hard way, Caddy's do it to.
