So a tree fell on my maxima

And totaled it I know I haven't been on here for quite a while but I just thought I would share the news.

It was right in front of my house and I only had 50,000 miles on it... waste of a perfectly good engine/tranny/everything else. Anybody in the LA area know any mechanics that need an engine or something?

I got pics on the camera, haven't put them on the comp yet, I don't even want to look at them again.

Avenge your car's death by:
1. Kill the tree
2. Track down all its relatives using molecular phylogeny
3. Kill all of its relatives
4. Find the tree planter.
5. Track down all their relatives using molercular phylogeny
6. you get the idea...
J/K I hope you weren't the one that planted the tree, that would suck

I had a tree fall on my max too, but it didnt hit the engine, just smashed in the roof of the car. Cost $6000, to repair it, only had the car for a few months too.

Yeah im paying an extra 1000$ for a 99 SE limted with 57,000 miles on it. So i guess im lucky, it has all the features as a GLE. Hopefully ill get it.


Quick question: i test drove the 99 se limited and it sounded diffrent than my maxima and other maximas i have driven. Do Se limited's have a different muffler than other maximas ie, gxe, gle...

I checked the muffler and it looks stock! No holes in it either....

^+1, haha.

Anyway, that's really sad to hear that guys, I just finished washing/waxing my car and if a tree fell on it at any point in the future I would probably light every tree within a mile radius on fire. THAT'LL TEACH YOU TO FALL ON MY CAR YOU GODDAMN TREES..
