I loved my 23 Ecoboost. Best vehicle I have ever owned. I felt like sharing some pictures of the unfortunate end of my truck.

I hit a severe whiteout, couldn’t see much of anything until I was in a 30 car pile up. I took a few big hits, proud to say the airbags did their job well. I walked away with only a sprained finger and some bruising from the seatbelt and airbag.

The most unfortunate part of the crash the fire that followed. As I collected my thoughts and crawled out the passenger side door I noticed fire under the hood of my ecoboost. Myself and a few truck drivers tried to extinguish the flames with fire extinguishers and failed. It appeared to be an electrical short fire that we couldn’t extinguish.

it was sad, but I have dealt with insurance and my replacement maverick should be here within a few days. Too bad Cactus Grey is no longer an option.

Important thing is you survived. Color is the least of your worries. Now you can try a different color. Looks like you crunched up quite a bit.
