The frame is severely rotted behind the cab on both sides. I have never seen a frame that is this age rotted so bad. This reminds me of the problem Toyota had with their Tacoma. But atleast Toyota put out a recall to remedy the problem.

As far as I know the truck went around corner and veered off the road in to a snow bank due to black ice and into a tree on passenger side of truck.it was a hard hit and the air bags did not work.when I get the accident report I will put exact speed.
