junk on the outside, gold & jewels on the inside.

you should work out a lawsuit against mcdonalds.

inferior cup lid design failed you when you needed it most causing loss of control due to over-chilled scrotum.

That sucks balls dude,

Are you ok?

Anyways, how is the frame, steering, front axle, and engine?

I rebuilt the front end of mine, it wasnt too hard.

Or you could give me the rolling chassis!

Sorry it took so long to answer your question it was all my fault. Thank you for the question.

Jesus is going to kick your ass when you get to heaven one day. But then you guys can be friends. Oh, and don't try to fight back....it's Jesus for Christ's sake.

My cousin lost control while trying to light a smoke and rammed a telephone pole head-on. She snapped the pole and then rolled the car, landing on the roof. She was hanging upside down in her seatbelt with the unlit cig still dangling from her mouth. They sent her the bill for the pole, about $3K if I recall.

Did she light it after she stopped moving?

One of the gals that work here lost it in her new Mercedes and stuffed it into a pole. She stepped on it and it got away from her. I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall when she told her husband. This was a few months ago and he's still pissed. He won't let her drive it anymore either. Did $17,000 of damage to it. No, she wasn't drunk either.

I have seen alot of pics lately of Disco's with big front end damage that the airbags didn't deploy. Did yours?

FYI I got in a head-on a few years ago in my D2. Both cars going about 30-35 MPH. ARB airbag bumper on...airbags did deploy.

I blew my bags in my '96 when I rear-ended a stopped F-150 doing about 50 mph or so.

If I recall correctly, it is the rate of deceleration that triggers the airbags, as opposed to the force of the impact.

D1 has accelerometers on top of the frame rails. I can't remember if the D2 is the same or not but can't see why they'd change it.

But if he hit a t-pole that would be from what 40 to 0 in like 2 seconds. I know they have to be able to take a beating due to being 4x4's, but remember that one that was hit by a train. Never deployed. Just curious.

I think it is under the cubby in the center console in D2s. The computer is, at least. I haven't seen any sensors on top of the frame rails or yellow wiring loom in the engine bay of mine.
