Well, now I know how an airbag deployment goes.

OH NO!!!
@stevegis_ssg We're both "okay". But the car is totaled. And now that the adrenaline has worn off I could really use some muscle relaxants.

Car crash recommendation: 0/10 AVOID
Oh, I forgot to mention, it was mom's car. She's of the age that "it is what it is" so she won't be punitive about the replacement. I will do whatever I can to make it right for her, obviously, because my mom is awesome, but what a mess.

Glad everyone walked away from it. Here's hoping your whiplash goes away soon. -
@stufromoz Did I mention those airbags smell like sulfur?

@spytfyre @stufromoz Jealous? Of snow? What's your address? I'll send you PLENTY.

I have more in my bank account than that car cost, and another of equal value at my house, for what it's worth. Anchorage is the Subaru capital of America, after all.

@redrummy Good. If it helps you feel any better, you are definitely an ad for Subaru today.

@stufromoz I was. I mean, I had no expectations what they smelled like until *poof* there I was

@steter Definitely a David vs Goliath in terms of overall vehicle dimensions, but those trucks aren't so tough as they look. Also, there's a reason Anchorage Continental Motors is the highest volume Subaru dealership in the world.
