Ok well i just saw that yet another person has rolled their explorer. Well i am not going to get into this vehicles safety. Because all i got to say to that comment is I came out of a crash that most would have died from if they had been in any other vehicle. So good for the X i think.
***STORY***
Well i was driving to Florida to visit a female friend , and was on U.S. 19 heade south when after a little rain storm my left rear tire blew out and shredded. Between that and the rain it sent me out of control and spun me to the right. Well the rim that the tire used to be on dug into the pavement and caused me to flip. (This is where i dont remember from) Then from the police report they said that i continued to flip about 3 or so times. And then did aother 180 and then went into the treeline about 75 feet taking out some trees along the way. They told me that i pulled myself out of the truck but i cannot see how i did it. Anyways someone found me along the edge of the highway and took me to the nearest gas station where the ambulance was called. First thing i remember is them rolling me into the hospital. "the last thing i remember of the crash was the truck tipping over for the first time and my head getting nearer and nearer to the pavement. It all happened really really quick. But anyways. I came out with a broken collar bone. Messed up shoulders and some deep cuts on my hands. But i consider myself really reallt fortunate to have survived the crash let alone not get severly maimed in the process by all the glas and tree branches flying every which way.***
Well here are some pictures. Others feel free to post your full stories and picture too.
