My old workhorse. I had this for 14-1/2 years. It was daily driven, driving the kids around, as well as used for hauling work stuff, mobile jobs, AutoX and company display for Velocity Upholstery at car shows. It was sold last November
As well as could be hoped for. Sore neck/shoulder/back. Airbag rash on arms.
Only had enough time to jump on the clutch to try to start the panic downshifting.
Left leg was straight out on impact & torqued my knee & ankle. Hobbling around on a cane right now.
