And jusy an FYI, I am putting together a road trip out to Utah sometime this summer. I'm trying to narrow down a date. I have a really good friend I wanna go out and see and I wanna go to Moab. It's a 34 hour drive down 80 west about 2,100 miles to where he lives in Provo, then a couple hour drive to Moab. I'm looking at about a week and a half - 2 week trip. Anyone that would SERIOUSLY be interested in this please let me know.
holy crap....i drove 1900 miles from NM to get here this past september...31 hours of driving, only took 30min nap break at about hour 19 then drove the rest..... the thought of doing that drivce again makes me cringe.

Glad someone got that out of the way... I'm sure Tim will get some when he meets with the insurance company

I'd love to, but the frame is all twisted up. My right rear door stayed closed, but the top of the door is 5" away from the gutter. The front end is crushed, too. I went down on my right front corner like Vin Diesel at the end of The Fast and the Furious, but, unlike him, I proceeded to roll lol
I'm gonna take whatever I can off it. I think $750 is gonna be my buyback limit. I have that stereo, some still-good suspension parts, and at least one or two wheels and tires.
No pics. I was on my way home from work, so I didn't have a camera. Cops didn't take pictures cause they didn't charge me with anything. I even asked the flatbed driver to take some before I loaded it up, but he didn't have a camera either.
Holy crap Tim. glad you're ok man - sorry about the jeep, that really sucks
Haha you knew I was gonna ask...that's pretty sweet that they held up though that - that's about as extreme of a test as you'll ever get. Try to grab them off the jeep if they let you salvage.
did you take any photos?

it doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a mile, winning is winning.
oh sorry for the fast and furious quote....
hopefully you can buy it back cheap. i bought my old xj back for 90$ from the insurance when it was totaled but it wasn't as nice as yours was... did you get to the hospital yet today to get checked out?

Not yet. I just got out of bed cause people from work keep calling to ask how I'm feeling. I love the love guys, but I'm trying to sleep! I'm about to call my clinic and let them know my plans, though.

Like I said, I'm waiting for their word.
And who posted that WJ? You're fired!
XJs and MJs, people. With cruise control.
Replace and upgrade

It was a WJ! lol
Speaking of...Mike, I like that bumper on your RC. If you make one full size, or if dukie can do a PS, I may go for it. It needs buzzsaws on the front to feed my deer-vendetta.
