It’s a very nice car 
Have fun with it, and don’t deal with VW

Re: Picture of My New Car
Nice looking car but your going to be washing it constantly with that color :). How do you like it so far? Lee and I thought about a used Jetta but for what one would cost we got a new Hyundai Sonata with all the works, full leather, sun roof, AC/climate control, driver and passenger front and side airbags, 100,000 mile 10 year warranty and a bit cheaper insurance. So far I have been very happy with the Hyundai.

Re: Picture of My New Car
Loving it, very comfortable, very smooth ride, great performance. The only problem: every damn bird that flies by just has to drop something on it :-).
I was considering Hyundai and Kia, but decided to go for the Jetta due to the VW reputation and reliability.

Dont get into a wreck in that car. That’s the same car my mom was in
when they were struck by a Yukon @ 27 MPH and the car’s FRAME folded
inward 18 inches. it looks like a crumpled piece of paper now.
Re: Picture of My New Car
I thought you said he was going like 60 MPH?

I’m pretty sure just about ANY car struck by a big ass Yukon at a
significant speed is going to crumple on impact.

Yeah, I seem to remember you saying he was doing 60 in a 25 zone.

Re: Picture of My New Car
She was but they got the last 5 seconds reading from the car brain
before impact and it said 37, 37, 37, 37, 27 so apparently she had
started to slow down and reached 27 before actual impact.

Well, momentum still accounts for a lot, regardless of actual speed.

Re: Picture of My New Car
yeah, absolutely. and cars are supposed to crumple in an impact. They
could just make the whole frame out of normal structural steel like they
make buildings out of, it wouldn’t crumple at all, even at 100MPH, but then
all the passengers inside would crumple instead. The idea is that it takes
significant energy to crumple a car, the more energy expended crumpling the
car, the less of it is transfered to the passangers as a violent impact.

Well a car is supposed to have crumple zones. These zones are parts of
the car that are designed to crumple to help dissipate some of the
impact. However, this particular car’s frame was supposed to not be part
of the crumple zone however it totally crimped inward a full 18 inches.

I think you misunderstand. The car that struck my sister’s car was the
one I was referring to. It was ‘the other guy’. Since the “brain” of the
car only records the last 5 seconds worth of data we could not determine
if she really did start out at 60 like we suspect all we know is that in
the last 5 seconds before impact she was going 37 and then 27 before
striking the car.

And somewhere, the Yukon had a problem at a collision with a Abraham M1
After the collision with the M1, the Yukon was only 18 inches high

Yeah, it would do some damage to a Yukon.

Have you ever played Grand Theft Auto ? The new Vice City has a kickass
tank called the Rhino and it blows up every car that runs into it, lol!
