Survived the Tornado! The rig wasn't so lucky!

If you folks would start another migration here to CA, maybe you could straighten this place out.

Lol, couldn't CA today be considered the result of the "first" migration? You sure you want more of us??

Glad to hear you and your family are ok.

i have to ask, do your turn signals still work? i think you need to send that picture of it sitting in the debris to Ford telling them it's ford tough and how it drove out. maybe they would kick in some parts? glad you guys are ok.

YES! I finally got the turn signals working, then mother nature comes through with a different plan. I just drove the rig to another friends house to store until we get into a house in a few weeks. Runs and drives great! Just need a pair of goggles and a mask to drive it right now.

Anyone have a rust free tub they are trying to get rid of? I did a lookover today and both rear fenders are scrap, both front fenders, hood, grill, doors, inserts, top, windshield and frame, all pretty much shot. It got rained in, and it already had a few rust spots, so I think it's gonna be a total replacement. Once I get the rest of the stuff cleaned out, I'll see what kind of work the inside of the rig needs. So Im in the market for an entire body, consider this my WTB post.

Glad to hear you guys are all OK. As my daughter says, the dings and dents give a Bronco it's caractor. Not everyone can say their Bronco was in a major tornado.

Great info Samaritans Purse group. Never cared for the U-way but I do see the Red Cross in action at structure fires in the area.

Again, Glad you all OK.

On okc c/list there was a tub with w/s frame fairly cheap not long ago.

It was a couple miles north east of me, all I got was rain but parked Robin under a bridge to be safe for the night

OKC, Moore, Midwest City...................here we go again!!!!! Heads up!!!!!!

 

[71massbronco]

Tornado on the ground near I 35 south Moore. C'mon, give em' a break already!

 

[jarhed1984]

I've never been so proud to be an Oklahoman. What resilient people. It kills me to be sitting here watching it happen again. My Mom and Sister are over on Anderson Road in the cellar as we speak. This is just freaking nuts. Hang tough. BOOMER!!!!

 

[Wyflyer]

My daughter lives in The Village, she went up to a friend's house in Edmond and is still in the storm shelter. Lots and lots of flooding in OKC, and tornados smacked the area some more.
Keep your heads down Okies.

 

[okie4570]

Some places reporting over 11" of rain. Several fatalites reported, all people in cars.

 

[OklahomaBroncoB]

Sooner!!!!

Wow, what destruction! Hope you guys made it through ok last night. Its amazing what nature can do in such a short amount of time. From my own experience after Hurricane Sandy, there are a lot of great people who have helped complete strangers. JK you are absolutely correct about Samaritan's Purse. They were one of the first organizations that came and helped friends of mine do the grunt work. They completely gutted my friends house in one day and cleaned out the crawl space. Without them it would have taken my friend weeks to get it done. Many people around me thought they could handle everything themselves and didn't ask for help. Unfortunately, they are still trying to get their houses in order. Just remember that it is ok to ask for help. God bless!
