The End of the Road for Me (with pics)

Wednesday night I was involved in an accident with the box. Luckily, I walked away from this one with just bumps and bruises. Unfortunately, the box didn't survive. An suv decided he could turn in front of me and I t-boned him. This was on a 55mph highway. He was cited with failure to yield and was fine, but I got a trip in an ambulance (back and neck pain, chest pain, knee pain, etc) I don't know for sure if the box will be totaled. My claims rep said based on the description it would be totaled but they had to send someone to look at it. Here are some pictures:

Thankfully, I am okay. Still waiting on the insurance company to make the decision. I still think they will total it. The driver's side doors won't open or close and you can see from the pictures that they don't line up. I'm really going to miss that car. I had a lot of fun with it. Bought it brand new 4 years ago last month

Not sure what I'll be getting next...guess I've got to go shopping.

I’m surprised how well the box took the hit, Your box must of really loved you a lot in order to take all that damage and leave you injury free your box did a good job to the bitter end.

I was surprised too. It was a hard hit and I am so lucky that I was able to walk away. It's just very unfortunate that it happened in the first place.
