I have been thinking for a long time about getting another vehicle, a smaller one for daily driving around and keeping the pickup for pickup sorts of things. But I'm not at that point, I just got myself to the point where I was going to pay off some bills, and then I can look at maybe financing a newer vehicle. So I'll get a used vehicle for the driving around and wait and do the pickup thing later.

Mostly I'm just kicking myself for being so stupid as to clobber a sign and mess up my truck. It's an undignified way to go. :-( The dealer will be able to repair it and make some money, probably, but going the retail route of repairing for an insurance company isn't the way it will get fixed.
