Ive gone down this rode before and got screwed, wanting to have my ducks in a row this time. Was rear ended by a semi who was playing road pirate blocking traffic not paying attention in front of him. LUCKILY it was slower speed. 20mph and I was doing maybe 3-5mph. The truck is driving fine, feels fine. Drove it home. I worked for a collision center before and did FIRST assessments, not the true one after tear down. Looking at this at the start, it sucks but looks fixable. There is some questionable spots on the frame due to the truck having a hitch on at the time that I am hoping you would be able to help with. Going to attach the photos below, to me, I see stress cracks. I see a bend. That's possible the only one positive to surface rust on a frame. When and if it has movement, it is shown in the color of things. Rear sensors are out, some wiring looks torn, I can see a bend in the right rear quarter, left side of frame in front of hitch has a bend. Thanks everyone.

Had a smittybuilt hitch step on the truck. It's gone onto every truck, even my Prius. For the sole purpose of protecting it in parking lots and recovery.
