I'm really glad you weren't hurt more and like someone else said, I feel much better about getting one for my wife too.
What I want to know is will you be able to salvage your Tonawanda Decal!!

This morning, the stuff I got was my plates, one of my license frames (the eagle one from the back), my garage door opener, and my fishing rod/antenna, because it was easier to unscrew the whole thing than to pry Stitch off ... so now I have a spare fishing rod.
I also got my hitch back, minus the attachment hardware (bolts, washers, etc.).I have some good news, though, but I'm posting that to a different thread. In the meantime, since everyone found the pics I uploaded earlier this afternoon ... here's the car that hit the rear end.
Oh yeah, the bike got mentioned, too. It's a GIANT Sedona mountain bike, which I use year-round to get around campus. The rear tire is mangled all to hell along with the main cog at the pedals, and the frame ain't in great shape either. When all is said and done, I'm going to go to the bike shop and see if they can either fix it or hook me up with a new bike.

This Firebird looks more like a Fiero now!

Actually, she didn't have a passenger. My guess is that there was something heavy either in the passenger seat or the back seat that flew forward when the car hit. That windshield, though, gives me an indication of how hard I got hit.
