Default Has One Box Ever Crashed Into Another Box?

Just curious if anyone has ever heard of 2 boxes crashing into each other? Please share info if you ever witnessed anything like this.

I don't even think I've ever heard of two boxes at the same GAS STATION at the same time, let alone slamming into one another. And for someone to witness this implies the presence of a THIRD box, which I'm pretty sure defies the laws of the universe.

BB2NER, I could really use a new front bumper, if you're volunteering your toaster to be the 2nd car. ;) :D :D :D

I was at Easton Mall in Columbus, OH and there were 2 boxes, mine and another, in one of the parking garages. I came out and there was a Lava Box parked on the street....3 inside a block.

My front bumper could stand a repaint but not that bad.

This is going to happen at some point, probably at a scion meet.

... or at K-Lot where all the Disneyland employees park. There's seriously TONS of boxes, xA's, and tC's in there. At least 20 everytime I go in. Bound to be an accident someday, lol.

I did hit a Camo xB before I got mine back in April of 04 though... no damage though! lol

Yes, pics would be in order if this happens, I barely ever see other Boxes here, maybe 2 days a week and they are usually going the other direction on the highway, I am in a mall parking lot or I am driving my other car....

I've heard of it happening at a meet, but was not there, and don't have pics...

c64c64, you're right, that's about the only conditions under which this would likely happen.

If it did happen wouldn't the universe cease to exist as we know it?

I end up parking next to one at my store from time to time (maybe cause one of my employees just bought one..hehe). Yesterday someone pulled up with a yellow one and parked next to mine.

My sister-in-law bought a 2006 Salsa last year, after I got wasted in Valparaiso, Indiana one night and she drove my '05 Black Pearl all the way back to Chicago. She absolutely loved it and bought her own a few months later.

We're all really close, so we go places together all the time... as a result, we generally park together...and if you think ONE box is a magnet for other Scions, try parking TWO of them in the same place. I think our personal record is three other xB's, for five total...it was like a mini Scion meet.

Awww! Well, if you back into a signpost or something, keep me in mind. It's been a rough winter, and my car looks like crap. Just remember - nothing bridges cultural differences like good old insurance fraud! (JUST KIDDING, NATIONWIDE...THE THING WITH THE BLAZER AND THE SEWER PIPE WAS TOTALLY LEGIT)

I prefer the rear bumper, though...I like to hit it from behind. OH NO HE DIDN'T
