Default see this? car slams into new Ford dealership, totals at least 1 new F150

BAM!



Several pickup trucks at a southwest Houston auto dealership were damaged early Monday when a driver crashed into the parking lot, according to Houston police.
A Chevy Trailblazer was heading northbound on the Southwest Freeway, just past Hillcroft, around 2 a.m. when the driver lost control, struck a light pole, hopped a curb and crashed into three new pickup trucks at Sterling McCall Ford.

Heres the link for the rest of the pics..

Well there's your problem, he was driving a Chevy.

Those poor new F150's

Hopefully the driver is okay, he must've been driving pretty fast, You'd have to hit a truck pretty hard to flip it on it's side.

Poor F-150's... Never even had the chance to get out of the way... I'd be interested to hear how the driver is doing. He had to have gotten airborne. Plus I'd like to see his car.

On the bright side, it looks like there will be some 2013 HID's going on sale soon.....

Straight roadway, 2 in the morning, driver looses control of his vehicle. In my experience that likely equals a drunk driver along with a pissed off insurance agent.

Well, this is Texas, so the odds of em having insurance are about 1 out of 100. Lol.

It's also Houston so what's the odds of them being a legal?

Looking at those pictures that little fence thing isn't scratched or even dented anywhere around those trucks, so how fast would you have to be going to hit the curb, jump the fence, hit the light pole, and flip a parked truck?

Way too fast. Not to mention land ontop of a truck.
