Just totalled a Lightning..damn my neck hurts

Coming back from the store with my friend. We hit a patch of ice( we think?). The ass went out from the back of us. We spun broke through the divider, there was a nice 30 foot drop off the bridge. Hit ass first and rolled into a pond. His face and mouth is full of a little glass.. I walked away with a sore ass neck and shoulder. It all happened so fast. We are ok but The truck is done. The cops came and asked if we needed an ambulance. we said no. I just called my friend body shop. came and picked it up. Now were are here online looking for a new car. My neck hurts bad! WE kept the bumper and put it on the wall.

One 11sec silver Lightning.......R.I.P.

Damn, i am glad you guys were not seriously hurt. I assume you were wearing seatbelts.

So i guess its a bad thing to drive a 400+hp RWD truck in the winter.

Glad to see you are alright. My question is why in the hell would you drive an 11sec car in that type of weather?

we are both in the Navy so we spend all our money on our cars/ trucks. He spends 10 grand in engine mods , but keeps those shitty z rated summer tires on there. I even showed him where it says on the door. YOU MUST CHANGE TIRES IN WINTER. Of course he never listens to me. I told him in October, these are summer tires, he said he's get around to it. Instead he gets chrome wheels same tires. he was driving by the way. I don't want to go to the doctor because I am on stand-by to go fight this war in Iraq. I want to blow some shit up. If somethings wrong and they make me non deployable I'm gonna be pissed

Yeah its gonna be great explosions everywhere!


Ive been in too many accidents to count... Heres what I do. Get a rag and run it under some hot water and put it on your neck with some Icy Hot or some other kind or cooling creme. When the warmth from the rag dissapates your neck will feel cool from the Icy Hot. It will still be sore as hell but it wont hurt near as bad.
THEN
lay on the couch and drink beer for a day. You will feel great!
