Brett billed his medical stuff to the insurance claim already. I just put a deposit down on a 5700 mile GTO in Colorado, same price as the 15,000 mile one I got in Vegas

That sucks sooooo much man! Conservation of momentum at its finest. Seems like you have good insurance and that this won't be but an anoying setback. I hope your friends leg/knee gets better. Injuries like this take a long time to heal since our bodies weren't designed for such impacts.

I'd say kick the ******' minivan driver in the nuts, but he obviously doesn't have any. His wife took them when she told him to buy the minivan and she now keeps them in a jar. He was probably trying to kill himself because he had to drive a castration-mobile.

Post up pics of the new toy when she arrives!

I think it's ironic that you were coming back from FRY'S ELECTRONICS and got hit in front of BEST BUY...

I drove it yesterday right before I signed papers. I actually drove from Phoenix to Wheatland to hang out with Kyle for the weekend....not quite sure what I was thinking , but the drive took me through Denver. I'm surprised the truck made it the whole way
