Glad to hear your ok buddy!!!!!!

A good friend i graduated high school with just got moved from the ICU to a Regular Room..
He has 12 broken ribs, damaged spleen, and a rod in his leg that was crushed... and he lost 2 of his good friends that was ridin with him..
He was in a Z71 Tahoe and swerved to miss a car that was backing out onto the highway and swerved back to miss a on coming car and rolled the Tahoe and while skiddin on the side they hit a tree and crushed the SUV from the top and somehow my buddy was able to make it out alive...

Everything happens for a reason,,, we probably will never know the reason for it, but when its your time,,,,, its your time..

Again... glad yall made it out of there with out harm..

This hit me man. You know where the important things are in life. I'v been in a roll-over, nothing, NOTHING means more than what you stated.

Yeah, I really am thankful. I need to raise my boys to be men and cannot do that 6 feet deep. I've changed a few things about my self and lifestyle since then.

Dibs on the LS2J/K

When you were sliding upside down did you notice the side curtain air bags deploy? Do you think those are really what helped you walk away? You damn sure you got lucky, glad you are ok man. Its funny how you can think when something like that happens. When I laid my bike down and I was skidding across the pavement getting eaten up I was thinking about how the exhaust on my bike was getting scraped up not about my skin
