By the time i saw the car it was time to get out of the way so i swerved to the left hopped a curb and drove over some huge rocks! Didnt look to where i was swerving and i regret it. Should have just take in the hit and maybe the car would be ok. Damages are..all 4 wheels n tires are blown and bent from the curb and rocks. Everything underneath looks like it was chewed by a shark and some damage to the front bumper. Next day i cried for about a good hour over my girl Zena! This is tough guys. would post pics but i cant find the cable for the computer to upload
So you were getting on or off the freeway?

Sorry to hear it man.
