Yeah, it doesn't even look that damaged. Headlights and windshield are still intact.

Amen.
I also live in Oklahoma, the last two nights we've has some bad storms. Oklahoma City and Stroud are getting it bad 2 twisters in 2 nights. The worst part about tornados is that there is nothing you can do to save your stuff. WE DON'T EVEN HAVE BASEMENTS TO HIDE IN!!!! DAMN HIGH WATER TABLE!
