I feel your pain (no pun intended). My wife was waiting to turn into our neighborhood and got hit from behind by a truck. The final bill was almost $20K and the insurance company wouldn't total it (2010 Ford Flex Ltd)!

Not sure if it was the picture but the rear wheel angle looked funny.
Hopefully it would get totaled so you can get a new one.

sorry to see that man. but were your wheels painted or dipped?

Dang. Looks like your exhaust took quite the curve.

Ouch... Sorry to see this... Hope you get it worked out.. What a hassle!

This really sucks to see. Sorry you got hit like that. I'm suspicious when I'm stopping. I always glance at the rear view mirror while leaving a decent gap in front of me, then I just inch up on the guy in front of me if the guy behind doesn't appear to be slowing down. It's a habit I've developed randomly.

sorry bud I really am glad you are ok. If its repairable I hope they do a great Job

Deploy rear airbags.

Seriously if you believe in a "curse" as well as demons, gremlins, tarot cards, lady luck and assorted other spurious entities, than your proper course is to find anti-curse protection. You must consult a Voodoo Priestess, a Shaman, a practitioner of Kabbalah, wear temple garments, purchase an anti-evil eye amulet or employ some other actions appropriate to the spirit world. It is pure folly to employ practical real-world measures to fight a "curse". You must surround your car with invisible rays of cosmic protection.

I know somebody that's made some pretty powerful infrared lasers. Hows that for invisible rays of cosmic protection.

I'm not afraid of those things. I just have that habit. I don't trust people not to rear end me. It doesn't have anything to do with a curse.

Invisible yes. Cosmic no - it is a matter of frequency.

Maybe we can attach a muon laser to the roof. :D
