Wow. Sorry to hear of the damage, but really happy you were so fortunate. What are the replacement plans?

Good people walk between the raindrops.

Glad to hear that everyone walked away from the accident. Another XFire can be had - your well being is another matter. Glad you both are okay.

John,
So sorry to hear about the loss. I'm so glad that you both were able to walk away. Sounds like you will be staying in the Crossfire family, which is great to hear.

John sorry about your loss, but thankfully you and Kim are okay. Remember you're coming into great convertible buying weather, and we already know your wife like the 55

He would miss out on the Turboing fun but tuning up an SRT-6 would be an easier route for sure. Plus it would already have that dang whale tail he loves!

John,

I am glad you and Kim are OK. The only good thing about this is we all should feel a little safer in our cars. It is amazing that a Crossfire can punt a big Pacifica onto its lid and you guys walk away.

I did some searching and did find a White with cedar interior 6 speed, but you are more interested in an auto? I hope you stick with white. That white SRT look was one of nicest looking Crossfires I have ever seen. If not white another non SRT color would still make your car very unique. I just hope you are able to get all your unique parts off to use on the next one.

Wow, Im so sorry hear about your accident, but so glad you and Kim came out not injured. The Lord was watching you and kept you safe. I think you said it right. The car can be replaced. I hope all goes well with the insurance company.

Glad you and Kim are fine and without major injuries. I heard what happened as my Kim and danimal were talking on the phone. I don't personally know you guys, but I felt overwhelmed with fear as if one of my friends had been in an accident.

The car can be replaced easily, and as someone already mentioned, maybe now is the time for an SRT-6. Regardless, take care of yourself and your wife first!

I am really happy that you and Kim are both ok. I am so sad for you! I am a huge fan of your car. I think it was 100% proof that the SRT should have come in white. That car was really classy looking! I really hope that you decide to stay with a XF for your next car. I can't wait to see what kinds of new upgrades and improvements you will make on your next hot rod!

I hope everyone sees this as a reminder to drive EXTRA carefully during this holiday season. People are driving in their own little world trying to get to the next Black Friday sale. There obviously wasn't anything that John could have done differently but I hope everyone drives as defensively as possible thru the weekend. Take care out there!!!
