the Mark lives....

[shiryu0]

well someday it had to happen, my first accident, not my fault , but it was in the Mark -_- (at least it wasnt the Sentra, id be in the hospital or something), veterans day going to work, riding along like any other day cruising at 65, a Silverado on the side of the highway decides to just get in front of me just as im passing by him.........RF fender, door, quarter panel between door pillar/rear wheel, and of course my mirror gonna get replace, took it to the body shop today, and i got a Explorer as a rental, yay -_- ; oh and they had to tow the silverado away, think i probably popped a control arm or something the whole LF was on the ground; Mark drives fine except for the check engine light for EVAP leak.......of course i was shocked it didnt get totaled, $5K estimate......im still trying to figure out how my Toyo/rim/suspension survived.....just like im still trying to figure out were im gonna put my jack in the box snowman antenna ball........?.......lol

Good to hear that you made it through OK. That 'Jack Holiday commercial is great and the antenna ball is well deserving a place of honor on a Mark. I haven't found a suitable place on mine yet either. Perhaps a suction cup on the moon roof and hot glue the ball on it or some variation.

Looks like you get a new paint job - cool.

Funny how luckey we get sometimes. I just had my 98 LSC in for tire balance and the mornons didnt t/off the air suspension - even after telling the manager twice. They thought they would be funny and wait till closing to tell me the car was ready and shut the door behind me, thinking I would not notice the car sitting on all four rims.
After a couple of hours they agreed to pay for a rental, tow and the cost of the repairs at a Lincoln dealer. so far the Dealer found it needed the compressor (morons keep the car running hoping it would pump up enough - over 3 hours running non stop) and both front bags- possibly the rear, they wont know till they repair the other stuff to see if it will hold air.

Cool Beans new air ride for me...

Mark VIII 1 Just Tires -0-

Car can be fixed but you can't - Sad that the car is damaged but It's great you didn't get hurt...

Marks are very safe! Ask Scott9050.... He shouldn't be with us today... Sure glad he is though... And you too!
