Them Rivis are huge. My uncle was in a car accident with one. Whole front end smashed in, doctor said if it was any other car he would have died. Thank God for the Rivis.

my rivi has a real crazy history, when my grandpa found the car it was mint. he made an offer on the car but before the guy who owned it(a gay man in california who was dieng of AIDs) could say yes or no the car was stolen by a local gang and driven in to a lake. Needless to say he got the car for alot cheeper than his first bid. the gang sliced up the intior and such and it was alitle damp was still in faily good condition. My grand parents drove it for years with out any problems, he used it to drive back and forth to work when they moved to north of atlanta. then the unthinkable happened, an old lady in a town car ran a red light and slammed in tho the front end. It totaled the town car, so badly infactand that it had to be hauled off on a flat bed. The rivi on the other end drove home with nothing more than a tweeked bumper and a bent grill insert.then it was parked for about a year and a half(its cool seeing pictures of my grandpa and the car from before I was born.) after all these years It is final mine, although it sits in a storage building outside atlanta right now with a blown motor, I will get it back on the road at any coust(short of getting rid of the vert) this is the car I learned to drive in and the first v8 I ever got to go full throtle. So after all this, now you might understand alitle better how this diehard ford man could love a buick.
