    The wife's Jeep almost made it to the first oil change...almost

    Thursday night on the way to work Mrs. Cam99 had an encounter with a fire hydrant and sheered off a telephone pole. Makes you appreciate the sucky gas mileage when you can do this and she walks away from it with a bruise on her knee and nothing else. The Jeep had 3000 miles on it

    Man Cam, must be a Jeep thing!!! My neighbor just got one too. It almost made it to its SECOND tank of GAS!!! Same thing, started going down a hill very slow, hit ice and gaines speed. Went sideways and blasted a tele pole with the drivers rear door. She was pretty banged up though.

    We had it pretty good then. With the mileage it got and the miles on it we had over 200 tanks of gas through it! Hope she recovers well. A friend of mine at work got into an accident at Halloween and his wife is still in therapy to help her walking. Scary stuff.
