Well, some idiot pulled a left in front of me this morning on my way to our daughter's First Communion lunch at a great restaraunt as I was driving through an intersection. It was one of those things where he turned in front of me so close that there was no time to react except for standing on the brakes. I hit him right at his right front wheel and nearly rolled him. I thought his back wheel was gonna come through the windshield. He apparently was a genius. He put his seatbelt on AFTER the crash where he took out his rearview mirror with his head....and his passenger ran away from the accident. He was driving an older Pathfinder. Glad I was driving my '05 Durango, and not my Impala. Wife and I spent most of the day in the ER and missed our daughter's party. Thankfully we are ok, though a it banged up, and both of my girls are just fine. I think the truck is totaled, but should find out in a day or so. I might be in the market for a replacement. My sister is selling her 99 4Runner that's in great condition, and she's owned it since it was new. Might be a reasonable way to go until we figure out what to get to replace the Dodge. I loved it, but it was a bit big for everyday use and a bit of a gas hog. I'm 6'2" and 250#, so something small is out of the question. Need something for hauling family camping gear, canoe, etc. but don;t want something huge. Any suggestions?
