we rolled joe's toyota last night, thank goodness for seatbelts
 
I'm fine guys thanks to the seatbelt an rollbar. The best way to sum it up is sudden quick manuver in a lifted jeep at about 55-60mph. followed by at least 3 rolls then when it was done rolling i got out walked away by the time i turned back around it was engulfed in flames. It sucked real bad but luckly no one was hurt.

As far as the jeep im just going wait an see what the insurance does.
 
man that blows. sorry to hear about that, but glad to hear all is well and that you got out. best of luck with the insurance company.
 
damn man!, sorry to see that... i rolled my frontier about a month and a half ago now down the freeway and it didnt catch on fire but was past the point on any repairs, i walked away with only minor injuries..... glad to see you made it out alright....

the rubi's roll cage held up really well ( i thought). It may have not hit it very hard i think it went end over end and then came to rest on its tires. I lost a nice carhart jacket and a pair of newbalence shoes
 
I rolled mine too. Sucks it happened, but it gave me a good chance to weld a cage inside it and be able to weld 360* around each tube. My replacement top is gut to fit, just need to finish a little welding tomorrow on the cage, then paint the cage and put the top on. Bought my lexan for the windshield today also.

Sucks that it totalled your jeep, just hope the insurance company pays you what it was worth. Glad you are OK.
 
Damn, that makes it a crazy week for you. I am glad that you did not have to take a nap in it this time to wait for help.
 
So where do you go from here? Getting another jeep? New? Used?

BTW, we met at the NCTTORA ride last weekend. I was the guy that needed fuses. :) (pics of me link)

My father used to tell me, "This is a problem that money can solve." The theory was that real problems typically involve health or relationships. Those are life's serious problems. Stuff like this, stuff that money can solve, are easy. Three years from now it will be a bummer that came and went but didn't leave a real impact on your life.

This will pass. Just make a plan and execute.
