My Truck Vs. Barb-Wire Fence

is that the correct spelling?

 

anyway, I was leaving the school parking lot arounf 8:45 last night, we had just gotten back from a Debate Tournament, and as I was leaving I thought of nailing the throttle, but decided instead to just blip it more than normal, as I turned out of the lot. The slick streets, and the fact that the diff unlocks fork turns added up for one messy situation. My back end broke lose, and I started to swing in the other lane, so I turned the wheel back the other way and all of a sudden the truck snaps into place heading right toward the fence, I and I took it out. Four feet away from a spot with NO fence(geeez, what luck) any way, heres the damage: Front stock lip spoiler torn off the bumper, and medium stratches on the hood. I ended up with th wire on the top of teh back, and the foward and back motions to get it unstuck (oh yea, BTW the back tires stpooed in a mud ditch, so we had plenty of fun getting it out) created DEEP to the metal ruts in the paint on the top, and it looks awful if your in the bed looking at the top. I knda wish it was silver now, but am seriously thinking of selling. I've turned in 8 applications, but no job, insurance is due, still haven't replaced the fuel pump, and now this. I was originaly going to ask 6,500 before this, with bad scratches on the top and moderate on the hood, what should I ask now? around 6,000?
