I know, this is supposed to be a spotted your 8 thread, but I was wondering did anyone in Phoenix spot strange lights in the sky last night at about 8PM. There was another UFO lights over Phoenix last night..

I may have been half asleep, but I know I would have noticed a LY 8, so there must have been something else! And hey, you were way off your beaten path!

APS sent out 2 supervisors to check the situation, they have a whole routine and what do to. They're sending out an adjuster monday to write out a check for the damage. I get to pick whoever I want to go to. So I'm going to send it back to the dealership for repairs.

I'm alright, no body injuries, no signs of whiplash or anything. Just sad...my baby is hurt. So for now I'm driving the beast...


Can i autocross a truck?

The beautiful BB protected you as is should.
I am always in awe of what a great job this vehicle does in protecting it's drivers!

Suggestion: Finishing Touch does an amazing job on paint and repairs. Since you get to choose.......... You might consider them.

This is a perfect time if you were considering debadging her.

Also: Don't say you, yourself are ok. It sometimes takes a few days for injuries to manifest themselves. Get yourself checked out first.

Well, they totalled my car. Which I wasn't too surprised about, they're giving me enough to pay off my car payment, and make a down payment on something. I have a clean slate, to get what I want! So I'm kind of excited. Wellll....I'm going to get another 8...manual this time...but color is up in the air...

Good to hear that your getting a new 8. If it was a line truck or the smaller service truck, forget the frame being straight.

I work for APS and was wondering what they did... Crap happens..
