Yea, my little boo-boo in my 2002 RS cost me $2500. Bumper, foglight, fender, paint, and wheel. Plus a few other things...it wasnt pretty.

They are legal between November 1 and May 1. Probably would have helped a little in this situation. Seriously though, I see this type of crap all the time. AWD works great until you have no throttle on, then you are just like everyone else.

I almost forgot about thispicture...at the very end of the road, as far as we could go that is, a 4x4 came along and tried to make it over this bank...I still think he could've made it if he launched it!
