    Hey Sue,

    Glad all the human body parts are ok... but can't say so much for the GX body parts..

    Lookin' at the pics, you will need to make sure you go to a full service body-shop that has a frame machine... The lower part of that lt quarter will need to be pulled out. And by doing so, will relieve the pressure that is causing that buckle just below the gas filler door.

    That color shouldn't be a problem...

    Thumbs up

    Mike and I had a blast! To celebrate our anniversary we splurged on a tower suite with bar, big screen tv's everywhere (including one that popped out of a cabinet at the foot of the bed), dining area and a bathroom as big as a normal room. It was a pleasure to finally meet VXKAT and her hubby Dave and Greg (Orion). Seeing Lisa and Jay always reminds me of just how fond I am of my long-time friends.

    We did meet a Las Vegas (Henderson) VXer. Chas711usa (Charles) who is an original owner of a 2001 Ironman. He still has a warranty!!!! It was a too brief encounter but I was glad to have met a fellow VXer nonetheless.

    The Mirage was a great place to stay - and I think we need to do this again next year!!!

    Sorry to hear about the damage Sue, clearly you needed one of these:



    Tom tried to tell you, but somehow I just don't think it would look right on a Lex.

    Looks like a great time, I always find myself wishing I lived further west when I read threads like this, Moab, etc... :sigh:

    Actually, that's exactly what someone said as soon as we got together...but I can't recall who it was...maybe Jay??... Yeah, we had a good laugh about it. Said I was goin' order one up from T4B!

    I've been waiting for Tom to weigh in on it. The irony that I put the bumper on just that morning as a "oh, why not, just throw it on for the trip"....and then the dude completely misses it...was just amazing. When I got out of the truck and walked back there, I fully expected to see the superbumper smashed into his radiator, and was so surprised to see he completely MISSED it!! He swerved to the left at the last moment when he realized, DUH! there was a 2 1/2 ton truck in front of him!

    Sorry I'm so late joining in.

    Yesterday was a holiday & today I've been neck deep in getting orders in for a quick trip to St Louis, MO tomorrow (I leave right after my interview).

    The damage to your Lex looks just like what I did to the back end of the Escape. However, I'll bet he didn't try my big finish by driving on 2 wheels & landing on top of a van.

    Looks like 'Idiot Cabby' would've missed even the larger size bumper like I got.

    Glad Y'all are OK & that it was still drive-able so it didn't totally ruin your weekend. I heard you were kinda dizzy afterward ... how could you tell?
