Sucks to hear mate, like I said to you the other night.

Glad for your sake it is a write off. I wouldn't want it back after that damage.

If you need help posting the pics, let me know.

Awe man, im so sorry to see that. I would cry if i saw my CJ like that....Even if my insurance did get me a new one...Nothing could replace my CJ....

Long as though your okay thats all that matters. Shame to see another CJ RIP...

Did you insurer cover your mods? Wheels etc? Or they just getting you another stock CJ...

I feel for you Mate... Glad to see you are in one piece though :)

Just out of curiosity, what insurance company are you with? I hope they are at least making it as smooth as they can for you......

As long as you and your passengers are ok thats the main thing.
its a big experience to go through something like this, and it will teach a tremendous lesson..... it will be invaluable.
Another CJ is coming!!....so cheer up!

& listen to what Mizta_B said......words of gold!

YOUR BABIES LAST ACT WAS TO PROTECT YOU.

Ouch, glad to hear you survived and escaped relatively unscathed.

Did the knee airbag help cushion your legs at all?

Bottom line - Broken bones heal, chicks dig scars and insurance will take care of a new car........You're damn sure lucky to walk away from that mate. Just use the next few weeks (before you get into your new car) to get your head right because the brain can subconsciously mess with your mind and distort your comprehension of what you went through. This is due to the shock you received from the trauma. You won't even know it until you involuntarily freeze in certain future circumstances.....

(Don't mean to scare you, just some people get back into the car too soon after without being ready to comprehend what had happened)
Get well, good luck with the new car.....Get a black one!!!!! :)
