Wow! That sucks big time. We were on the road all day and I just fired up and saw your post. It was a pleasure meeting you two at the rally.
Glad you are both safe.

We are very thankful that you and Gail were not hurt. What a very scary thing for both of you. We hope the insurance will work out in your favor. Please be safe on your trip home.

OMG, we also are happy to hear that you and Gail did not get hurt in that accident. What a thing to have happen to you after enjoying such a nice rally. Was it the wind from the truck that caused the Montana to start fish tailing? Take care driving the rest of the way home.

Sad to hear this but the great thing was that everyone came thru this unhurt. The Montana can be replaced and the Truck can be repaired. We must be very careful when the roads are wet or in snow. Large Trucks shed dirty air and can cause turbulence and I'm sure you have experienced the same thing. Good Luck guys and the days will be brighter for you. GBY.....

Just when you least expect it life can really throw you a curve ball and yours was a biggie. So glad to here you both are okay as anything else just doesn't matter. On the bright side I am thinking you might be able to swing an even better deal on that 3400 without a trade, just hope the dealer rewrites the contract fairly.

So glad you guys are OK. Don't count on repairing that hitch. On our way back from Quartzsite my latch didn't latch on the superglide. The hitch walked all the way back and the handle hit the tailgate. Got everything straightened out and made it home from Las Vegas safely. AAA sent me to the body shop and they wanted to replace the whole hitch. The owner said there was too much liability to repair or replace the handle on the hitch. $5700.00 later I have a new tailgate and brand new 3600 Superglide hitch. You may find yourself in the same boat. If your truck frame got stressed they may not want to let you pull your new rig with the old truck. Good luck with everything.

Oh my goodness, Don! What a terrible accident, but what a wonderful outcome since neither you nor Gail were hurt. Just visualizing what happened makes me slightly faint.

We, as fellow 3075 owners, are so sorry for you. It must have been a very frightening exprience. It would be very helpful for us fellow MOC-ers to hear how you make out dealing with insurance company, towing company, replacement, etc. I'm sure you will have plenty of good info to pass along. May you never have to go through it again.

Sorry to hear about your loss. I am glad to hear you guys made it through without getting hurt. My wife and I being in a horrific crash ourselves, I know how terrifying it can be. God was watching over you to go through that without a scratch.

That is terrible, glad you are both safe. You won't have to sell the monty when you get your new one and insurance should help ease the pain. Be sure to work with your agent to get a good resolution from the insurance company.

I am glad to here you are ok and only replacable parts are hurt. Pulling a trailer on ice is scary by itself it must have been horrible to have it fishtail and turn over. Thankful you are not hurt the rest can be replaced. GBY.
