Jeep totaled, back injury...again

[Armyvet25]

On the 23rd an assh0le rear ended me at speed, no brakes, not paying attention, stopped at a light hit at over 40 mph from the rear sent me into the next vehicle and another, totaling my wife's Jeep and the one directly in front of me. I had major back surgery last Oct and still recovering, now set back due to the accident, recovery all over.
This is the totaled Jeep

no pics of damage at this time but frame twist and other damage

So, fighting through the pain did what any good hubby would do...bought her another, she saw this one and wanted it, 2013 Wrangler with Clifford off road and overlanding package.

Fortunately she wasn't in it, i was on my way to pick her up from work.

Now after I recover some, the honey due list begins, I had only just put on tube doors and all kinds of goodies on her jeep, now the process starts over, soft top, side steps, etc etc etc

The Kia had 3 kids in the car, didn't seem hurt at the time, but they showed up at the hospital a few days later where my Wife works.

Hope things work out and you heal up ok.
Maybe the '66 Charger in your mailbox in a few days will help cheer you up

Hopefully the lawsuit turns out better.

That really sucks on top of a previous back issue. Wish you the best in dealing with new issue.

I got hit like that while driving the truck twice in the last six years. Last one set the stage for retirement, I was pretty well fed up with what I was sharing the road with. I now do as little civilian driving as possible as well.

Agree with Don on the lawsuit. Neither of the clowns who hit my trailer had insurance.

 

[Armyvet25]

attorney already working on it, maybe I will get my 66 Charger...just not the way I wanted to

 

[Armyvet25]

getting to the point i may not be able to work on major projects, hate to give up on my 71 charger's future

Hoping your recovery goes well and speedy! I had a similar experience, idiot turned left on a red arrow and t-boned my Challenger, I was doing 45mph. A couple years prior I had cervical fusion on C3-C6, after the accident, I had to have C6-C7 fused. Thankful that the Challenger's are built like tanks!

Best wishes for your full recovery, there are too many inattentive drivers out there!
