Sad day for my new TW FA5.
Headed home today from work and I am stopped in traffic on a highway. I look in my rearview and see a large Penske Truck barrelling in on me. He slams into my rear and pushes me forward over 200 feet. I get out of my car and look at the back.... destruction. My car is totaled. The cops were amazed that I was not hurt/dead. I walked away without a scratch, I'm guessing that I will be a little sore tomorrow. Another interesting tidbit, I had ordered my JDM emblems and I was excited about heading home to see if they were in. I eventually get home, and they were sitting there begging me to put them on, lol. I am sure that the insurance will get me a brand new one.

Man!, that must have been one scary sight! I can't even imagine that! Don't worry about the car, and be thankful you are okay!

Arrgh that's one less TW FA5 on the road but glad to hear you're OK. You might as well save the badges for your next TW FA5 & make that your first mod.
