Of all the garbage on the scene he must have smashed some cans before he hit the phonepole. Looks like the driver might have escaped without any major injuries.

a guy that lives down the road from me wrecked his GT a few weeks ago. He was merging onto I-35 and got on the throttle; a car in front of him was merging as well and pulled out in front of him. He hit her and hit the guardrail. Bent the frame on the car, but they didn't total it last I heard. 135K of damage and it needs 150K to total it.

Just down the road from here before Christmas some thieves broke into a Ford dealership and stole a GT right off the showroom floor... car only made it 2 or 3 miles down the road before they wrecked it. Oops. They also used it to "shove" the other cars in the showroom out of the way.

Ouch, that hurts to see. I reallllyyyy like those cars. Sucks to see them wrecked when there arent that many on the road. I need a few to last about 20 or 30 years until I can afford one!
