We’re sure that you’ve heard of Copart before. The massive network of wrecking yards started by Willis Johnson from very humble beginnings and has grown into a behemoth. Copart was one of the first wrecking yard networks to adopt and see the value in selling online and as such, their website is awesome and very fun to navigate looking for stuff that you want to buy. It is also easy to navigate when looking for cars, trucks, big rigs, muscle cars, and whatever else you want to see that has been annihilated beyond all recognition. We chose to scan the site for big rigs that were wrecked and for sale. Our eyes were bugging our of our heads when we started finding the trucks. We have no idea what the circumstances of these wrecks were but some of these trucks look like they have been hit by missiles or nukes!
We’re going to share a couple of photos from each wrecked truck here and the link to go see more…and you’ll want to see more. This is crazy stuff.
This 2009 International Pro Star had a small fire….

This 2009 International also suffered a small fire. Perhaps someone left a bag of popcorn in the microwave a little long?
What’s the deal with 2009?! This truck has a sweet exhaust stack that can be saved and a couple of tires. Ever wanted a convertible rig?

This 2009 Volvo appears to be have been punched in the fact be Optimus Prime
This 2014 Freightliner met its end in an incredibly violent fashion
Lastly, we decided to throw in this Ford Expedition That Paul Bunyan used for batting practice –
Any time a truck weighing 80,000 lbs moving at highway speeds strikes a stationary object there will be a big mess.
A Volvo with a Cummins engine,not in australia LOL
WOW, My guess would be NSF (No Frickin Survivors) on all but the burn units. Sad to say
the question “burning” in my mind is: can a severely singed engine be put back into service??
I’ve driven trucks for 28 years. Some of what you’re posting may be symbols of someone’s love one not making it home.
Ron,
Kinda what I was thinking.
Pretty crappy doing a Blog to sell advertising by posting pictures of vehicles that people most likely died in or were seriously injured.
Brian,
When you are at SEMA selling ad space on your Blog did you mention to your potential advertisers that their Company name would pop up in a post with random pictures of vehicles that someone died in? What’s next, links to Faces of Death videos?
