Dang man. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />:( Glad it did not turn out any worse. Looks like your truck did a most excellent job of protecting the contents.
Any recourse against the trucker?
This is not the first "montero saved my life " post. I think these trucks have a good track record for crash safety.

Im sorry for your loss. Wow, if you were in most other vehicles I dont think you would be posting here anymore. So what are the injuries if you dont mind me asking? Were the emergency workers surprised to see someone survived the crash?
I just want to tell you both good luck, and we're all counting on you.

That's a horrid wreck and I feel sorry for your loss. I am just glad your Montero was able to sacrifice itself to keep you and your fiance alive.
I remember a few months ago a forum member posted about being in a head on with a F350 and surviving. Better built vehicles don't just perform better, they protect better as well.
