Yes it was the truck drivers fault as hard as it might be for you to believe. He plead guilty and had to seve in house arrest for over a year. This was our family's agreement. The company also had to settle as well. They were sitting at a RED light and he ran them over. What more at fault does he need for you?

 

I believe that the truck driver was at fault. I was saying that sometimes media outlets don't tell the truth so the story can be inaccurate to get more viewers or readers. If thats how it went down, it is obvious who is at fault.

 

Like I said, I am sorry for your loss.

And is it just me, because I haven't seen it written, but does anyone else wonder why this jackass ran into the back of the STOPPED truck? Especially without touching the brakes. I wonder if he was DUI or just not paying attention. I know this happens all of the time, but usually not this bad.

 

 

I don't think anyone else has pointed out the fact that there is clearly some kind of company lettering on what's left of the truck's door, so I highly doubt it was a DUI. He could have been late to a job, answering a work call, looking at directions/GPS...

 

Poor fella.

The poor guy was form Oklahoma and was president of a horizontal well drilling operation. The accident occurred in Indiana.

With a little research you can find all this info.

 

I would like to see this section closed due to the sensitivity of the matter. Who knows, his family or friends may read and post here since it was a Silverado.

good call, I just wanted to post a photo of the damage of a chevy truck running into the back of a semi to illustrate the dangers. This has gone way off topic.

    • Because single shot injectors are ancient and multi hole injectors provide smoother running engines and sharper throttle response due to the fuel being atomized better..the best lead I have is a 24lb blue top injector almost everything matches up but the injector will put out about 26lb/hr which is just outside the gm threshold.figured id ask here to see if there was an absolute answer
    • Why is my question?   Any change in injectors requires a tune. Unless you are going back with the OEM part number or a newer part number of that same injector.   Any size difference or type difference like the EV6 style injectors all have different injector data for them. And there is no EV6 injector that matches the factory 25 lb/hr size that your truck comes with. I've been messing with these trucks and tuning them for a long time and what you trying to do doesn't exactly make sense to me.
    • My 6.6 gas lt8 had lifter noise with 28000 miles bought new 2026 and while driven to dealer it threw #1 rod bearing “HD my ass” good luck with yours i hope it don’t turn a rod bearing!
    • When a condition becomes a business model.    https://www.gm-trucks.com/gm-truck-suv-incentives-pricing-2026/   Zane posted this in "Latest Articles".    The honest bottom line   Truck buyers have spent three years assuming this is a temporary condition that will break once inventories normalize. GM just presented it to investors as a durable strategy, on a chart, as evidence of good management.   Inventory did normalize. GM is at 511,000 units and squarely inside its own 50 to 60 day target. The discounts still did not come back, because the low incentive number is the goal rather than a symptom of shortage.   Plan your purchase around that reality instead of waiting for it to change. Follow our ongoing GM News coverage for pricing and incentive changes as the next-generation trucks land.
    • Thought it was raining this morning when we woke. Nope. Dew point was over 80 F and humidity 98%. Zero visibility distance. Everything was 'sweating'. I've seen rain come out of clouds but never out of Pepper or the tree trunks.    Wicked storms just missed us sliding off to the east but by blocks. Heat index about 110 F with air temp in the 90's.    This is  our third wave this month of multiple days of this type of weather. And yet the grass is going dormant and the ground is cracking this side of the street and water up the the hood opposite. Just weird stuff going on.
