I knew I'd keep this car until the day she died, just didn't realize it'd be so soon. Was third car in line stopped while waiting for the lead car to make a left turn, rear-ended by a lifted truck that as you can see went over the bumper and impacted the trunk and sandwiched my car with the car in front.

Front damage wasn't nearly as bad, but enough that the car dumped all her fluids and had to be towed away. The sad part for me is that the wreck happened while I'm down in Biloxi, MS temporarily (~20hr drive from home) so it really forced my hand in letting insurance keep her as totaled and then buying something off a dealer around here to keep life moving forward. I owned her for quite a while and she'll be dearly missed!

my passenger and I were hauled off to the ER and released later that day and will both be fine, haven't heard anything about the driver that caused the incident or the person that I was pushed into, so no follow up details yet.
