Four Wheelin with A "G"

with the nice slick roads in N Florida tonite, I decided to see the car would 4-wheel through the woods.







Looks like the front bumper, grill , headlight, CAI pipe damage. Thats all I can see for now. Really not in too bad a shape. Calling the body shop tomorrow.

I'll take some pics in the am when the sun comes up. Really not that bad. At least it runs and drives still. Defiantly need a good detail, Buellar, anyone.

Glad you are OK! How did it happen so we can avoid it? Did the tail snap out on a curve, etc? Was the traction control off?

OUCH! You've got summer tires on your G, right? Not all that great when dealing with rain.

Well when you live in Florida, its really hard finding anything but reg. tires. Problem in Forida is when it rains or gets wet the roads are like ice. You never know when your gonna hit a real slick spot. Luckily, I was behind traffic only doing about 25mph. As traffic started to move I gave it the gas then Wham. She sun around so fast and headed for the woods. All I can remember was seeing that big oak tree and saying "**** , here comes the airbag". Fortunatly, the slo speed and soft mud on the side of the road slows me enough not to do too much damage or the airbags to deploy.
