I hit some ice on I-75 and ran my truck smack into the concrete wall. The truck's trashed, but thank God and airbags, I walked away. Of course, I've heard "Good thing you were'nt on that motorcycle" about ten times. Duh! It was 20 degrees! Too bad it is so cold, I wouldn't have to rent transportation!

That "good thing you weren't on the bike" line always seemed dumb; as if you had no idea that accidents happened until just them. You should respond with, "good thing you have a solid grasp of the obvious".

Bah... the truck looks fine. Just slap a new badge and grill on the front and you're good to go. Glad to hear you're ok.
