Here is my car, a 1997 Mercury Sable, after i rear ended a truck on the freeway. There are 5 lanes in my direction and all of them where shut down. There was a two car accident (involving me), and then a 4 car accident behind me. After the police and fire dept showed up, there was another multicar accident.
Damage estimate came in at $7500 so this car is getting written off. Im now thinking about getting a 2002-03 Mitsubishi Galant if I can find one in a V6.

Hope you're OK. Looks like it was a pretty bad hit.

No, the windshield damage was caused by the airbag. I think if i hadn't of had my seatbelt on the airbags would've crushed my face.
