Well, not really a roll over...but I did put her on her side. Hit some ice, did 2 or 3 full revolutions (kinda lost count in the moment) hit a snow bank on a slight down hill and tipped over on the drivers side. No air bag deployed, no broken glass, no broken bones. Also didn't notice anything leaking. I consider myself very lucky and watched over. Some top notch guys got her right side up and she ran fine. After a full day of skiing I drove back down the mountain with no problems. I'm going to take her to my alignment shop and have him go over it. Should I be looking for anything else? I'll be thrilled to get outta this with just cosmetic damage...
Wow lucky. I guess your skis were fine since you only landed on your side, and skied with them afterwards, right? I like that you just continued on your way, skied for the day, then drove home. Probably a lot of people would have been took shook up to just go about their day
A coworker of mine put her truck on it's side over the summer. The first time she started it back up, it burnt a lot of oil, but only for maybe 10 minutes, then was totally fine, other than the body damage. I think landing upside down is a whole different deal.
I wasn't about to let a little mishap ruin the best snow conditions we've had around here in years I was pretty shaken up though...the crews up there were top notch and helped make the whole thing pretty smooth. I guess I'll get to replacing the door and fender and drive on!
I flipped mine on it side aswell, and it was fine after I replaced the driver door, side window and windshield, no alinement needed. Those Aluminum mounts for the side mirrors really do most of the damage
