Not exactly sure what all I was seeing, but we drive 4x4 working trucks ...

Except for the part about muddy water in the air filter housing and bent-up front end parts; a little barbed wire wrapped around this or that, some wiring pulled loose here or there, it really isn't that bad is it?

Looks to me like someone blew their motor up and where trying to get it covered under warranty. Video will prove they abused the truck.

Looks like a recovered stolen truck to me.
Literally "drive it like you stole it" kind of damage.

A Saturday night drunken escapade driving through a fence and taking your truck for a swim in a stock tank probably isn't covered by the warranty ...

Theft recovery is my first thought...but look at the exhaust...a thief wouldn't have done that...just chop it off after the dpf...although it would take a dumb farmer to want to light his fields on fire with that.
