Guy tried to turn and across 3 lanes with oncoming traffic. Claimed his "brakes locked up." But I sure wouldn't turn into traffic if my brakes didn't work. I'd just bounce around in the median.

Glad for a "Built Ford Tough" Mustang though. I just hope I can get a replacement car that I want as much as I wanted this one. Had the perfect color, interior and rims I wanted.

Yeah, I'm doing well, just hoping I don't have permanent neck or back injuries. Only time will tell.

That sucks, hope there's no long term health issues for either of you guys. From the pictures you can see the crumple zones that Ford Engineers put in for safety worked perfectly. The newer Ford vehicles are very safe, I know from experience myself.

Good luck on getting a replacement.

Glade you're all right, if you haven't done so, get an MRI of your neck & back.
Did the other driver get ticketed @ the scene ?
Will your insurance let you remove your mod parts from the car ?

Glad you're not hurt... as others have said, get MRI/X-Rays... and an adjustment from a good chiropractor will make you feel better.
On another note, a tear was brought to my eye looking at your stang. I guess it's a good excuse for a 2016 Shelby GT 350.
