Rscape 0 firewood 1

Lost · Oct 5, 2008

A freind of familly had the luck of running over a pc of wood that feel off a truck in her 08 Eascape. (12' round o OAK) If she was going little faster it would have landed on hood.

Luckily she went over it. Damage to front bunper, grill,tierods,oil pan tranny pan ,driveshaft .

Over all actually held up well . She was lucky . Will be back on road by end week .

Ouch...I can't think of too many vehicles that would handle a 12" oak log in the road very well.

She's lucky it didn't bouce off the hood- probably weighed enough to come through the windshield if it bounced wrong.

Jeez. I reckon she'll have to change her pants AND the seat.

I came through right after happened . Other than the bent stuff its seemed fine. Towed it to local shop.

She said it bounced abotu 12ft in air andwas on way down when she hit it.

Your right about the seat

Glad no one was hurt- but you realize you just ticked off $5-$6,000 damage right there? Maybe more...

Being 2 months old they will not total it if so I'd buy it. There 4 of em at the local wreckers for parts .

That much damage isn't a total- but if there's frame/sub-frame damage, it actually could be. Being that the truck is almost new, there's a 60% rule (damage more than 60% of new value will probably be a total).

$4200 out door for repairs . Not to bad I guess.
