Unhappy

So sorrry Pontiac brother but am VERY glad you are okay! If you didn't hit it straight on than your air bags won't fire. My wife AND daughter were in seperate accidents with their respective Mitsu's and neithers air bag deployed, although most of their front ends were wrecked.

GOOD LUCK and remember next time put the car in sleep mode along with cruise control, safer that way!!

Sorry to hear about your accident, glad your ok, I drive 100 miles a day on I96 so I know how tired you can get. If she is totalled try parting her out, I am looking for a extra lt1, but if the airbags didn't go off it doesn't sound that bad so you will probably be able to fix her right up.
