Default Look What Happened Today!!!!

So i went on my lunch break today and i parked my car on the street and i went inside to eat my lunch. So im sitting at work minding my own business when a kid comes in and goes, "Jake something is wrong with your car, you might wanna go look." I kinda was just like , "Ya whatever" so then the girl i work with was saying there really is something wrong with my car. So i go outside and this is what i found.

wow, just a few weeks ago a guy in the Milwaukee almost lost his entire car in one of those sink holes...The front end was completly under the pavement while the rear of the car stuck up in the air. Only in the Midwest, I guess!

there is no damage as far as i can see, it was nuts, though, the entire front end of my car was laying on the ground, and my headers were on the ground too. I had 2 people lift up on my fender while i reversed and she popped right out. Crazy thing is this happened right in front of my work too..

Your car is too fat. Put it on a diet.

No more doughnuts for you!

never listen to cops in situations like that. Fire departments are the only ones you can trust.

Claim paint damage and get your car a fresh coat.

Good to hear you got the car out, that could have been worse!
