wow...glad to hear you're ok...

you said you missed the tree by 5ft? damn that reminds me of two VERY good friends i had (known them since i was in 1st grade...)...crashed on March 18, 2005, they went sideways on black ice and hit a patch of trees. literally if they went 3ft further, they would have hit a field and probably been ok... R.I.P. BOYZ...


thank god you missed that...brings back nightmares.......

Pics are painful to look at, but glad you are Ok.

I once missed a tree by inches, so close it shaved the passenger side mirror clean off.

Amazingly everything looks ok, steering, oil pan, and all look usable, frame has no obvious bends.
