Default OWNED BY A POTHOLE

Yep I 95 owned me, broken axle, bent control rod, blown shock and strut damaged, shattered rim and one bent.





oh and road debri popped up and cracked my side skirt. Car is in the shop, insurance company has it I should have it back by march 6 they've had It for a week so far. Due to the fact that ADR discountinued the rims I have I had to order a new set.

So yeah I hit the pothole at about 75 mph the hole was about 4 inchs deep, and took up most of the center lane.. right before telegraph rd. I had to have it towed home 155 dollars that sucked.
