Ice and my jeep
« on: March 13, 2013, 09:23:35 am »
well ive been driving my jeep recently because my truck doesnt get so good of mpg's

i was driving home yesterday after school going about 30mph and hit a patch of ice and fishtailed and spun around 180, went into the ditch backwards hit a culvert to a farmers field and fliped over the top of it and hit the top of top of it an flipped again and landed on its side with the passenger side down. everbody (me and my sis) was okay and we got out fine. we went home and got my truck and used the winch to pull it out  8). right now its just sitting at home, the passenger fender and part of the hood is crunched in and the fiberglass roof is broken along the front top and on the front drivers corner. thank God for roll cages.

im pretty shook up from the whole thing, and had drive my truck to school today. i was going like 20 the whole way lol.

let this be a lesson to everybody, go slow if you see snow blowing over the road.

ill get some pics up when i get home.

im okay but my back is giving me problems and im gunna get it checked out today.

The longer wheelbase of the truck probably would have helped more than hurt.

Sucks about your Jeep. :(  Look on the brightside though.  It's an excuse for more upgrades :D  I've got a 2010 JK myself.
