Wow... glad to know she's physically okay. I saw the pics and instantly thought there had to be an injury.

My own personal story... one month after I got my JK, I was rear ended by a NYC cabbie when I stopped at a green when yielding to a police car with its sirens on. My rear pumper was slightly dented but the cabbie's front end was totaled. The cops on scene said it was the best advertisement for a Wrangler they'd ever seen.

oh MY back, my neck!!! Sorry, I know that is why everything is so expensive but I've lost three of my good vehicles due to bad luck and stupid drivers (none my fault) and have gotten screwed every time unfortunately.

OH the accessories I would have on my brand new Rubicon.

Things happen for a reason, it sucks but it'll work out!!!

OH, So she was driving too fast and following too close...

**UPDATE**

from what i understand is that she was driving in the middle lane and the big truck swerved from the right lane to the middle when his tire burst...and we all know the jk accelration is sluggish so she couldnt manage to speed and move away..so she hit the breaks hard..and u can see that the hit is from the side
