Suburban vs. Neon!!


Best when viewed at 1024 x 768


The following pictures show the result of the collision between the two vehicles mentioned above. The Neon hit the rear passenger side of my Suburban, pushing it around 180 degrees. The drivers side rear tire couldn't withstand the sideways force applied to it, and rolled off the rim. The rim then dug into the pavement before snapping off at the axle, causing the Sub to roll. All parties from both vehicles walked away uninjured. (I have the only (very minor) injuries - a few glass cuts in my left arm and hand, but that's all!)

This shows the drivers side AFTER being laid on that side.


Another angle. "Built like a Rock" has real meaning!!!


This is were the initial impact occurred.


It's got a few scatches, but I'm sure they'll buff out! (Ha Ha!)


This modification allows better air flow throughout the cabin!


Impact spot from a different angle.


This is the wheel that snapped off. Notice the chunk of asphalt.


The broken axle.


Here you can see the tire marks going sideways...


...then where it rolls off and the rim starts to dig the asphalt...


...then where the wheel breaks off at the axle and lays flat on the ground.


Whole thing brom a different angle.


The Neon.

The Winner?
You decide....
But I don't think the Neon will run into anything else!!
