Steam engine time.

Last Sunday, a blood relative of mine was rear-ended while driving their Toyota Avalon; the force of the collision was sufficient to total the Avalon.

This Sunday, I was rear-ended while driving my mother back from San Antonio in her Toyota Avalon. Fortunately, it does not look like this Avalon is a total loss.

If you drive a Toyota Avalon, or are related to me by blood or marriage, please be careful on the highway until further notice.

(As a side note, Trooper Seth Fry of the Texas DPS was kind, polite, sympathetic, and made a stressful situation somewhat easier to deal with. My thanks to him.)

    On the upside – I got a “new to me” 2007 E350 Mercedes Benz out of the deal. Not too shabby – but I was saving my avalon for my 13+ year old to drive in less than 3 years.
