Yikes, a double hit! I'm so glad the family was safe.
I was t-boned Friday night at an intersection by a Yukon. The passenger sidewas crushed, but fortunately no one was riding but me. Broke my heart, but nothing else.
Somehow, I always knew a wreck would take Montegua away but I'm still getting over the shock and "what ifs".
I got the estimate today..approx. $16k; so likely this will be the end of my Monte adventure of a year and a half. I appreciate all of you being there with info when I needed it!
The hard part...finding another (less expensive) car..it'll never be the same as the Monte.

Sorry to hear about the car, and glad to hear the important part of ur life is safe!
Makes me feel better, even if I don't have the side bags.
Question tho.. if only the mounts and radiator are gone.... how about the heads and intake? I've been thinking about a project with my 3.9....

Welcome back Ian! [sm=welcomesign.gif]
Glad to hear you and your family are okay.
Also glad to hear that Krystal did her job keeping your family safe. The same way you keep our country safe.
It seems your faith in the car's safety systems were well placed. I'd say Krystal died an very honourable death. Protecting your family.

It's too bad that Krystal is going to thebone yard...undoubtedly, she was awonderful car. Nevertheless, shedemonstratedto us all that the Monte Carlo isindeed a safevehicle, and one that will protect its occupants in the event of a serious crash.
Krystal did good, and now we can all feel a little bit safer in our vehicle of choice.
Good job, Krystal - rest easy, old girl.

Hyperfox,
First off, I am glad to hear that your family is OK after that horrible accident. I have had a few car accidents in my life, but have never had a car written off. It is a testament to the build quality of the Monte Carlo that She could get hit by a truck of that size, (and a wee honda) and have no major injuries as a result. Makes me glad that I traded my mazda in on such a fine Automobile!
Take care and God Bless!
p.s. good luck in your search for a new Monte!
