Nice replacement!

I can't believe that your 4Runner went over all those poles and you were ok.

Man, you were seriously lucky you weren't more hurt in that accident...
...I have heard the best chance of surviving a serious accident is to be asleep or drunk tho.

ah, the old fall-asleep-at-the-wheel gag. Insurance companies buy it every time!! j/k man - glad you are in one piece, but be thankful you didn't hit a minivan full of kids, or a girl scout troop walking on the sidewalk
