A Very Bad Night

[okietheranger]

Man, that sure is not a pretty site! You're both safe is what counts. Looked at your sig to see where you're from and it said; "Used For: Gettin down and dirty". Don't think you really meant it like this. Lots of good Rangers to pick from, good luck.

It is just a vehicle... I can't imagine yelling at someone for an hour and a half when they already feel like shit as it is.

You'd be surprised what you do in the heat of the moment. If I was in his seat, I would've done the same thing. I mean, she punched the gas, rolled over multiple times over a cliff, both almost died or could've died, and have to walk afterwards.

I would've yelled at her too, but apologize after I calmed down.

I'm sure it was more than just a vehicle to okie.

I suppose...but it could have been much worse and he should be thankful they are not dead. The last thing I would worry about is placing blame *face it, they both knew who was at fault, she didn't need to get her ass ripped for it*.

Everyone is attached to their rides, me included, but sometimes ya just gotta stand back and think about what really matters.

Good point Jspafford. Before the wife and I were married she was driving my Celica. Well, an old broad in a Chrysler turned in front of her. She side swiped the ditz and just missed a pole. She got out of the ditch fine but was scared when she talked to me on the phone. She figured I'd be REALLY ticked. My first question to her was, "are you OK?". I couldn't care about the car at the time. Worked out well, police charged the ditz and not much damage to my car.

I was ticked but, I also realized that it wasn't her fault at all. No reason to get mad at her.

That really sucks, okie. I know how feel. After I rolled my 84 BII I was just sick about it. That was 10 years ago almost to the day today. Lots of good things came out of that though. I bought my 94 and now I'm as attached to it as I was the old BII.

I didn't just imeditly start yelling at her. After I found my mag light and saw she had a little gash and check our selfs out and after I kinds crying and hugging them I got pissed and started yelling for just hammering down and nor even atemping to turn with the road she must of thought I'd be faster to roll off the cliff it was a mistake that I can't even belive a goat would do if the goat was driving. But yeah after I told her I sorry for yelling at u, but she almost killed us with a silly a$$ mistake. And I do kick my self in the ass for letting her drive. But were young and we both have interst is 4x4 she just acted like she knew what she was doing I mean Christ she has her liceance

Well, you'll have to post up a link to your build thread.

...I wonder what shipping of an FM146 would cost from where you are, to where I am...
