I would get the same make and model truck, it looks like it crumpled up the way it should to absorb all the energy of the crash and your alive.
Bumper height? I'd hate to be in a 3500 if that were the case since its even shorter... heaven forbid a little car.
What even dodge seemed to never take into consideration was the standard ICC bar on the back of the trailer. Nice imprints it left on the bumper that supposedly didn't take a hit... The steel bumper was the first thing to take a whack.




All of which brought me closer to the dash, and the dash closer to me

Woulda done more turning if they hadn't cleaned up as much of the red stuff as they did.
