there are more pics, and a video of them rolling it over and breaking the windshield on accident. ill try to get those up and links asap. basically i was driving on i-75 in northern michigan coming home and there was some slushy ice that sent me sideways into the snow on the side, then we flipped. scariest crap ive ever been through.

you need a sticker that says "this end up" dude.

why do people insist on driving in snow? what is so important that it could cost you your life?

anyway, glad your okay, and glad your box is going to be fixed. next time wait for the snow plows to do their work.

Lol, no one "insists" on driving in the snow. But when you live in higher elevations that get a lot of snow, you are going to have to drive in snow.

Sometimes, it's unavoidable. Especially in the midwest.

I guess it's true what they say about Michigan drivers

CONGRATS that they're fixing your ride! that's almost never the case in rollovers. you are suuuuuper lucky, dude.

So don't be too hard on the snow...the same white crap that sent you skidding is what gave you a nice soft landing!!

ROFLMAO, I can't wait to tell my boss this. "Sorry, can't come in, it's snowing!"
I never in my life thought I would hear a line like this from someone north of the Mason-Dixon line... you sound like a Texan!

true, the 3 feet of snow did provide a nice cushion for the impact

Wow, it still looks drivable after they re-flipped it. Doesn't really look like the roof even caved as far as I can see in the pic. You should of got in it and tried to drive it away after they re-flipped it.lol
