Here's pictures of my accident, just to show you how they hold up. No, it wasnt totaled (14k of damage). No, the airbags did NOT deploy. I hit a guardrail when I lost control, I was going too fast for the conditions. I learned my lesson.







Heres some other SRT Accidents:

Rear ended:


Not sure what happened here:


Driver said he used poor judgement, as to what...Im not sure:
No one was hurt/killed.






Driver and Passenger both died. The car hit a tree at 70mph. No one is sure what happened. The passenger in this car was Steven Lorenz, operator of www.SRT4-designs.com. The second passenger was in critical condition:









Theres plenty more out there too....

The orange one wasn't Steve's, but his friend Maximillian K. Max was driving, Steve was the passenger in the front seat, and the passenger in the backseat and was in critical condition. However I just read that he is home and doing well, but is extremely depressed that he was the one to survive and not his friends.

Well I find Monday if they decide to total the SRT. They started to take it apart yesterday and found a lot of sh*t that was bad. Like I said, this Yukon hit me hard and I was on a angle to the impact. The back seat support was even buckled, the whole rear suspension is shot, plus numerous other things so they feel it might be like opening a can of worms. I will post the outcome, may take awhile tho.

Well the insurance company totaled the SRT-4. Front end is good, engine, trans, etc. The damage is to the backdoor, quarter panel, rear suspension. Does anyone know what the SRT-4 engine is worth with 18,000 miles?

I'm sorry for the two of you...and now I know how it feels...on a smaller scale. I hope you both make a full recovery. Makes me feel thankful that it was only a bicycle hitting me.
