The end of the MaxiPad
I have updated my build thread(http://forums.maxima.org/members-rid...y-maxipad.html) but a truly sad day for Maximas everywhere.
A F250 ran a red light and we collided at appx. 30 mph each.

Luckily no one was hurt, no broken bones, and barely a scratch on me. I never can catch a break though!

Probably not going to part out but if there are small pieces people want then I can gather those.

Sucks bro. Just remember, stuff can be replaced, we can't. As much as myself and the majority of the .org members love our Maximas, when it comes right down to it, they're still just stuff. Glad you're ok!

That sucks about the car but the important thing is that everyone came out alright. Cars can be replaced, people can't.

Glad to hear you are doing ok.

That is a serious serious accident. You think you can't catch a break? I think you caught a huge break, and it only cost you a max. I hear you though.

Did the bag work? How's your chest? Do you have a huge welt from the seat belt?
