Default so my other car is no longer a charger

My Wife and I were in a terrible car accident in our Dodge Charger. The car is a complete write off, my wife broke her wrist and has a soar leg, I received stitches to my eyelid, and my Dogs are ok.
We lucked out big time, I am now back to normal but my wife has a cast and is doing physio for getting back on her feet (literally).

Our car was t-bonned, then knocked into a tree, and then on top of that it started on fire.

Attached is a picture.

Our Second vehicle is now a 2010 Mazda CX-7 which I Love! Don't worry I still enjoy my bug, but I need another ride too!

Anyways on to the picture of the Charger.

Thanks Guys, My wife is still doing Physio. getting better day by day but still not back to normal. She now has her cast off and is doing physio on that as well as her leg.

As for the TEXTING, LOL! not too sure if the other driver was drunk, or texting or what the case may be, still haven't seen the police report. All I know is we were not in the wrong, they ran a stop sign, and judging by our car, at a very high speed.

Thanks again for all the support!
Matt

Glad you guys are OK. Good thing you were driving a big sedan. I always thought those Chargers were built like tanks - now we know. I've been through a nasty one myself so I know where you two are at - GL with the recovery. Did the airbag mess with your eyelid?

Best,

-Kev
