Have you ever been airborne in a car?

[biteme]

I was running late to work the other night because my sister had tried to log onto my AOL account from somewhere and I didn't know who it was, so I had the password changed. That night I tried to log on to pull up mapquest to get directions to my post. Couldn't log on so I ended up leaving late. So, I'm speeding to work on a road, I've never been on, when suddenly. Bam!!! I hit a ditch and bottomed out and then went airborne for about 10 ft. It damn near knocked me out, hardest I've been hit since my football days. I can't believe it didn't fuck up my car. I still think there's probably damage.
And there's a pile of shit in my living room floor because my sister didn't let the dogs out this morning. She's leaving in 2 weeks or I'd have to kill her.

What are tie rods and will I have to have them repaired?

There used to be a road just outside my home town that was very very hilly. This 5 mile section got the nickname "Rollercoaster Road". Several years back they redid it and smoothed it out due to the number of accidents. I never got to drive a car on it, but my popps would take me and my brother on it all the time. He has a 1972 Nova SS that is all suped up and shit. He would take that road at around 120mph and we would catch air over every hill top. It was awesome. My mother would always get so pissed once she found out what we were doing.

take it to have it looked at by someone you trust if you can't manually expect them yourself. they could be bent. also you should jack up the front end of your car and with the wheels pointing straight ahead, grab hold of the top part of your tire. push and pull back several times to see if there is any "play" (movement back and forth) when you do that. if there is any, you have the beginning of problems, if it is very noticable, time to take it in for repair

I launched a Toyota SR5 pickup truck about 30 feet over a guardrail. I hit some black ice...at about 55 mph...and never made the corner. The snowbank made a perfect ramp.

The cops said I clipped a tree at about 15 feet off the ground.
