    The buyer did not believe me. I talked to him 10min before I left my apt.

    Like I said before, I drive that road and average of 3 times a week. Honestly, I have taken it fast before with no problem. The time I am driving like gramps I lose it. I am not claimng to be a super driver, but I wish I could replay time and get that rear passenger suspension checked. it looked like this:

    Sorry, I'm not buying it. a little rear toe in or not, I don't see an AWD going that out of control unless there's quite a decent ammount of speed.

    I'm sorry about your loss, and if you were under the limit I am sorry for doubting you, but I just find it hard to believe is all I'm saying.

    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle

    I can agree, but I do not make excuses, nor do i drive like an A*Hole. I lost control, end of story, but that tire had excessive wear on the inside nearly halfway cross. Serioulsy I was going 45mph at max. That is why I am still not getting what happened. I mean, a slide with no skid marks is wierd.

    You are lucky you walked away without a scratch. I believe something was going on there is just know way you magically slide off the road.

    Glad you are ok, your car was beautiful man.

    I'm glad to hear your okay man. I hate to see another wrecked subi after my legacy, but they do hold up really well in accidents. I'm sure you'll be back with another great looking car soon enough.
