Now for the naysayers.. I wasn't distracted in any way.. My eyes were right on the road.. I was following at least three lengths maybe more at 25-30 mph.. I wasn't in a hurry.. I don't hurry anymore..

But, I was distracted for maybe a second by the idiot swerve directly in front of me.. And it was that second that cost me the car.. If I somehow could have focused on what was in front of me, I could have probably stopped in time.. Unfortunately my defensive attention went to the swerving idiot because at the time he was the threat...

Yes, The HHR submarined under the bumper of the Honda..I wouldn't be surprised if the air dam didn't hit the ground before anything else...
Had it not dove so much and the bumper was allowed to do it's job, It might not have been a total loss...Not really a defect but something for them to consider for the future...If it's just going to dive under whatever it hits. Then it's almost an automatic total...

I got to pull the hitch off it.. I have an ad in the classifieds if anyone wants it..It's priced to go so act on it quick..

If you live in the OKC area, I'll even deliver or meet you...
