My weekend SUCKED

hydroxy · November 14, 2004

I'll get a full story up soon. Just got back. Short story - the car infront of me rearended the car infront of him, came to a dead stop while I was going 60mph. I swerved, couldn't get out of the way. I dont think damage is as bad as it looks, but my car is in SC and I'm in VA. No one was hurt, my gf wasn't wearing a seatbelt and she was ok (and yes, I do yell at her all the time to wear her seatbelt).

Glad you all are ok. But if you feel bad now what about your poor X being parked next to a jeep. How does the X feel about that?

aldive · November 14, 2004

Wow, I feel for you. GTlad you were not injured though.

Ford_Racing_Guy · November 14, 2004

holy crap!

hopefully you get a decent sum

DirtyDog · November 15, 2004

Ouch dude. Glad you & your GF are ok

matey · November 15, 2004

at least your ok the car can be replaced

Nate1 · November 15, 2004

New bumper, grill, headlight, fender, hood, and an alignment job and you're back in buisness.

IDK but the tire isnt popped and the damage looks mostly cosmetic, looks like you should have the car back to normal w/ bodywork.

Glad everyone is okay, even if it sucks to be without your truck.

That sux. It doesn't look all that bad. What kind of damage to the other car? Hopefully the ins. company doesn't add insult to injury with a rate hike.

jimbo74 · November 15, 2004

hate t osay it, but i have become very good at estimating damages... and there is some pretty hefty damage there... the clip will need replacing, hood, fenders, all that stuff... the frame will need to be straightened and the suspesnion appears to have some bent members.....

Ford Explorer Crumpled Zone :thumbsup:

How does your girlfriend feel about wearing seatbelts now?

bmxking5 · November 15, 2004

Dang that sux, glad everyone was ok.

Hokie · November 15, 2004

Pat needs many hugs y'all...

he really was a trooper this weekend though. I thought we both were going to be stranded in SC for atleast a few days. Thank God for a tight nit fraternity brotherhood

The damage doesn't look horrible, but with both air bags popped, I dare say the outlook may not be good

Here are a few more views...

Man that sux.

I really like that Explorer.

New pics in the 1st post.

With both airbags deployed, you'll be lucky if the insurance doesn't total it. Nowadays, the airbags cost more than anything to be replaced and most insurance companies are totalling cars that are in an accident bad enough to deploy the airbags just to keep from paying too much for the repairs. Good luck though.

Fish Man · November 16, 2004

ah man that sucks

sorry to hear about it

LOGJOCKY · November 16, 2004

thats alot of damage, sorry to hear

james t · November 16, 2004

I hate to be the doom-sayer, but with both bags blown it may very well be totalled depending on frame damage. You are both physically ok and that's all that really matters. It sucks that your ride got screwed up, but in the end its just a truck- even though you've put a crap-load of work into. I feel for ya bro

Charlie's_93EB · November 16, 2004

wow, first i am glad that you and gf are ok, what about the other drivers?
