and she just walks it off like a badars

Then had heat surgery two days later. Yep.

but she. she has my vote on the epic award

Hehe thanks. I keep trying to get her to go back to AC too...

damn man, glad she is ok!!

Me too....

*higs you tight*

Wow, what is she part terminator?

Robotic heart. Check. Puts up with pure evil husband. Check. What else?

A positronic brain, what you would call a learning computer

.... I've seen the first two terminator movies way too many times.

damn, i take it the engines ko?

No idea but: most likely. From memory: the bumper is 3 feet is back. The LS is V8 big block shared by Jags and other high end Euro speedsters. So most likely the motor is fubar.

Those engine blocks are sturdy built things, my mum walked away from a car that looked pretty much exactly the same as this...bar the make and model.

Aye. I loved this car. But the electrical system was giving her shit for a while apparently. One point it wouldn't rub for 3 months and even the dealership was confused.

Ahh, anybody else involved in the crash or another lampost incident?

No idea. Just know she was forced off te road..

she ok

Glad to hear she's okay dude.

dang, glad she was ok

Crumple zone/impact shock absorbtion techniques have really become incredible, over the years. They say that to take it in the front end is the best, followed up by the rear. The vehicle literally sacrifices itself to protect the occupants, when at all possible. And there is the proof. Unlike a 1940's vehicle would would try to save itself with little regard to the occupant that just went flying through the air after impacting with the windshield and it's shards.

I know. Went to school for 4 years for auto tech.

I wonder just how many years are left before the computer just completely takes over the designing, the building...the selling.

And, probably see it in Japan, first. The world's first vehicle vending machine. Be the size of a small building that rotates mini cars vertically...maybe you make a down payment and swipe the credit card to run the engine for the next ten years.

Structurally speaking. It's thankfully the design of the vehicle. Your engine block is the sturdiest part of a car. flat out. that's why the section if hit from the side is usually wrenched loose. Luckily your mother was at a speed that didn't compromise it but...that's a dead on collision what happened exactly? Black Ice?

Nope: one of the worst spots in Knoxville. Anytime it got wet people would fly off it. People who lived there were used to it, but again she was ran off of it this time due to asshat in her lane. Its a narrow 2 lane road. County has tried many times to fix this curve... Speical concrete to be extra sticky when wet, extra rough, things like that. It never works.

Ahhh, I've heard horror stories about the roads in that city. Well, all in all. I'm glad your mother wasn't harmed. Sucks your vehicle is totaled and I pray insurance covers it. What about that shmuck that ran her off the road? Caught? Still out there? Or possibly gonna suffer a kharmic back lash like you wouldn't believe?

It is one of them that earned its relutations. And i haven't been in K-town in a decade. But from what i am getting it is, and it is covered by the other guy due to them running her off the road.

Ohhh, a fiscal backlash. Not crippling but painful

thats a lincon for ya, heavy ass boat has a lot of momentum to keep you from bouncing around like a ping pong. hence why people walk away from lincons and cadilacs, not smartcars and Geometros...

My Father... Asshat he maybe... Was proffesional flipper of metros. Flipped 3 of them. Walked away except from one fine. I loved that Lincoln too.

man lincons have the best rides of any car, I know my Olds 88 rides good but if you really want to feel like your floating above the ground, Town Car's are the way to go

Hehe this was a 03 LS V8 Ulimate. It was murr.

SmartCar uses some kind of new age geometry shaped open cell construction. They say it gives great protection and makes the car light.

-Light- being the key word, here. I've heard testimony to them. As in "Never drive on the freeway." The wind gusts will knock you about. Great 'round-the-town car...like a high end golf cart. Oh...and the wonderful "Saw my daughter safely to school" testimony. As in, quite literally, the guy's ten year old daughter stole the SmartCar and got it all the way to school. So, it's super simple to operate, too.

wait, she managed to break into it and drive to school? Damn, even if the doors were unlocked, thats girls definatly indipendant ^3^

It's got most of the security of a golf cart, too. o_O But, I imagine she easily got her hands on the keys, being in the family and all that.

The Telephone pole was DIA.

wow…………………………

OMG that's real good she is fine from that. O_o

Wow, I have seen many people who have hit poles like this have to go to the hospital for much more than a bruise!

You misspelled Karma in your title :P
