Whoa.

Good thing they are so highly rated in crash tests, huh?


A lovely way to spend your Sunday afternoon -

1) get involved in a giant multi car pileup, which breaks out the
rear window of your car - when your car is loaded with the wife, two
kids (5 & 2), and the Greyhound (who was in the very back of the
car)... and it is 0F with -25 windchill.

2) Sit on the highway in the pileup for 2.5-3 hours

3) Sit in a parking lot for another 1+ hours waiting for the police
to do a police report

4) Drive back where you came from - 15 miles only took an hour, and
get rear ended a second time in the process when a block away from
your destination.



Yeesh.

Definition of a "bad day".


That was also the second car we totalled this winter. Neither time our
fault.
