ouch, Hope you feel better in the morning (you wont, it’ll be sore like something else…) but still hope you feel better. Airbags probably would have made more of a mess if they did deploy and it doesn’t look like enough sensor we’re tripped. ---

Wow man that’s shitty… Hope you and your GF sue the shit out of him… As for if it’s a write off looks like there isn’t much front “frame” damage. But it does look like your A Pillar “Frame” might be bent. Its good your airbags didn’t come out, It would of been written off right away. But this is a 50% chance of write off. ---

ahh thanks for the support guys, gotta love NECC for that. This just sucks, now im stuck driving a damn ford fusion, haha oh well its not to bad its loaded and has some balls. Damn nick i was goign to call you when i got back from grand prarie to buy that wideband 02 sensor, well i gues we will see. Insurance said they will cover all the parts and replace them exact so that is good, since my hid was smashed etc. the cone for the CAI was across the street lol its now in my trunk. yah but i will find out monday if shes a write off, half of me wants it to be so i can get a WRX the other half just loves this car! but we will see As for my GF she is ok just some deep tissue pain but give that time and it will be good, me, just like you said fallen it hurt about 20 times more this morn and it radiated to my back. but whatever could have been worse if i was goign just a bit faster or if i would have hit that pole! ---

haha its hillariuos everyone is telling me to sue, but i hoenstly dont have anything to sue for. just minor back.neck pain, i can still work, well im an EMT on a rig so i dont exactly do any of that but thats ok. it happened at about 6pm, they had us out of there at i think 7pm or so, the tow truck guys cleaned it quite well to. And my god i keep thinking how close i was to that pole, and how close he was to hitting my door. both could have been much more seroius/fatal! but thank god. so any thoughts on other cars, cause im thinking WRX, that is if its a write off? Or maybe a nissan Versa? hahahaa ---
