    Default Fortunate To Still Be Around


    My beloved on S-10 and I tangled with an 18 wheeler last Monday, Nov 17, 1 day after my 66th birthday. He hit me on the rear driver's side corner, spun me 180 degrees and flipped me over. My truck came to rest on the passenger's side door and I had to exit by climbing up through the driver's side door which was facing the sky. I was blessed that the passenger's side of the truck took most of the damage. I walked away with one small abrasion on my left leg just below the knee. Name:  Beloved S-10 001.jpg

    You are so right, Redge. If anyone doesn't believe in God's protection, look at the roof line of the passenger's side compared to the driver's side in the second photo. I was blessed to walk away from that one.

    Anyone that lucky needs to purchase a lottery ticket or two. Glad to hear you came out with only minor scratches.

    My S10 Blazer got rear ended by a medium size truck running about 50MPH. I walked away without a scratch. I am impressed with the licks those S10s can take. I had 3 of them over 22 years before I got a larger SUV. Glad you are OK.

    Glad you're ok, did you also buy a lottery ticket as well??
    GO BIG ORANGE !

    I meant to behave, but there were just way too many other options available at the time.
