Default The SS is dead

So I wrecked my Impy a couple of nights ago. Rolled several times, landed upside down in a ditch. My poor car is dead. I have really enjoyed being a part of the LS4 community and will miss it.

Good god man, you alright? Sorry to hear about this, cars can be replaced, you can't be. Good luck with your next ride. Try and keep the rubber on the road.

Better not be a deer that caused it. Two friends of mine hit deer this week and totaled their vehicles.

Glad you're OK! Now, let's see some pics!
