Good Bye Alero!!!!
Attachment 1774 March 22nd....I ended up with a head on collision here in town. Lucky to be alive and sorta ok is what everyone keeps saying to me but I don't see it like that. I should have died with the Alero. I do have a cracked rib on the left, and still a little dizzy. I had even just finished putting on the neon lights. They weren't even 5 minutes old on the baby. I'll still visit the site but I won't be posting anymore pics on the baby. I'll miss the chance of chillin with all of you. It was cool while I was here

That looks bad. Glad your ok! Like Chris said you can get another one and you can still come to ASS if you want to, b/c there's going to be people there that are not bringing their aleros

Wow... I'm glad you're okay. That looks pretty nasty.
Think of it this way, it's only a car.

you know its funny, i was having this convo with mark (EhNigma) while we were going for breakfast and he said and i quote "If you are to be in an accident, your in the right car for it" and your living proof of what he said, that is insane!! Glad to hear you ok man! even though you dont have your alero, this is a good place to chat and look up interesting stuff, no need to bail just b/c you dont have the car this site is based on, its the people more than the cars, its b/c its the people that make a good looking car what it is

wow...I glad you made it out alive...THE only reason i bought my alero was I was in a very bad accident in my 98 Intrigue, after hitting 2 deer at 60+ mph on the highway, i happened to enter the median at just the wrong time, where had i been on the highway i would have went over a bridge...as luck had it, i went through the guardrail, at an estimated 50+ and 40 feet straight down into the railroad tracks....long story short...I pick another Olds this time an Alero just in case I need another miracle.

Glad to hear that you are alright.
Amazing that with that type of damage all you have is a cracked rib.
Sucks about the car but as long as you are alright that is the important thing. There are plenty more cars out there

holy cow batman, must be the Olds gods watching over us... haha
But yeah, you are lucky to be alive and its only a car, 5 years you would have been sick of it and wanting something new anyways.

Holy Crap Chicana that looks like a nasty crash. Glad to hear you came out of it mostly unscathed. What the heck happened to cause the accident. Find another Alero and stick around here. Good Luck.

Glad to here that you are ok. That's one bad looking accident. It will take some time for you to feel better.... I'm sure you haven't really gotten to the aftershock pain yet from the hit. that will be around for a couple days. But hope you feel better... and stick around this site. Even if you get a different car.

yeh Rob, Mark's right.
I got hit in the drivers side doors by a Toyota Avalon going 50mph...my car ended up being in better shape (for a side accident) than it did.. Now its been fixed for over a year and is still doing fine =) Im really lucky and the Alero is a safe car.. both me and you (Lachicana) among others are living testaments to this fact..
