I’m pretty sure, that one won’t buff out.


Raccoon sleeping in a dumpster this morning. I guess he wore himself trying to get out.

I banged on the dumpster and he slept through it.

I’ll go back Monday, to see if he still there.

I hope you at least threw some thrash in there for the trash panda
So he can climb out of it or fourage on it

The Altima folded in half happened a little less than a month ago less than 25 miles North of me, made all the local news and went national.
Looks and sounds unreal that the driver survived with minor injuries.

Imagine being pinned in you car with a Semi sitting on top of you- nightmares are all but guaranteed.

Amazing. I believe the accident happened, but yes, the front wheel looks much smaller and like an alloy wheel while the back looks like a larger steel wheel. But maybe it's a hub cap and optical illusion.

That would be extremely scary!

This shows that there are wheel covers on the front wheels that are not present on the rear wheels. The rear of that car was folded over and if you look at the 2nd picture, you will see where the rocker panel ended at the rear wheel well. Terrible wreck and I am amazed that anyone survived that.

Wheels and tires are the same size and both are 5 lug.
