My buddy just drove his rumble bee through about 25-30 yards of trees going about 50 MPH and the front end didnt have a scratch on it but the bed and tailgate were totalled, We straight snapped the rear axles, and the tires were laying about 20 yards from the truck. So yes the story about the rear end not holding up in an accident is very true. I can vouch for that from first hand experiance.

 

Damn bro, that really sucks. My uncle wrecked his Rumble Bee last year...he hydroplaned into a tree. Totally f**ked up his front end...but it wasn't totaled. I'm sorry to hear about your buddy's loss, but at least nobody died!

 

sorry to hear about you buddies ride, hope something good will come out of it.
