Police said an off duty paramedic found the car in a ditch and the unresponsive 23-year-old man.
Neighbours said they did not hear anything in the night, but one house lost power, which leads police to believe the truck collided with a hydro pole.
Police are still investigating at this time and say they are not ruling anything out.
They said they are looking at factors that may have contributed to it including speed, alcohol and if a seat belt was worn.
As a result of the investigation, Concession 5 Woodhouse was closed for approximately 7 hours between East Quarter Townline Road and Highway 6.
