ok im sorry your car got wrecked. but im surprised there is only 1 other person that said anything out off all these 3 pages about your bald tires.
first of all, you should never drive on bald tires, especially gravel roads. you cant really hold your friend liable for it since you handed him the keys with an unfit vehicle to drive. never let an inexperienced driver drive a vehicle that needs tires, brakes, or any major part for that matter.
this should be more of a lesson learned for you too keep good tires on the vehicle, not get bummed out and blame your friend.

Your friend is a idiot I am sorry. Sorry for you cause you let him drive a car with bald tires and there was gravel where he was driving. If he was just starting to drive that is another ovious answer to NO YOU CAN"T DRIVE MY CAR! Oh well its screwed up you might as well total the car out cause if you busted the motor mounts could have messed up the rest of the drivetrain. The frame is probably bent and definitly the core support. Not worth the repair on the car esspecially if you have over 100,000 miles on the car.

First of all how are you feeling. If your neck is not better get it checked out!! NO ONE drives my car! My wife doesn't even want to drive it......only cause she knows how I am about it. If your body harness is not repairable then it will total. That part alone is over $2k.

Im sorry to hear about your misfortune. Pull the motor and see how it looks then go from there. Better yet, post some pics and lets see what the others think.
I dont really let anyone drive my car but my brother since he has a slammed SC also. Try going to a chiropractor so you dont feel all weird later on down the road and post some pics.

i haven't reported it to insurance or anything so it still has a clean title and i think can be fixed. the motor still starts but who knows about everything else. if anyone is interested let me know..
