      I think you had someone watching over you cause an 18 wheeler and your car would more then likely end in devastating disaster! Glad to hear that you walked away fine!

            Thats one thing i am afraid of happening... Whenever i see an 18 wheeler i either keep my distance or pas them entirely and get a good distance away. I am terrified of them!But like i said on Facebook as long as the humans are good the car is goood
