very lucky no one was sent to the e-room. the car that was struck first is a mini van, it was hit so hard the dodge dakota that hit pushed the back bumper into the third row seat, the third row seat was pushed into the second row seat! there were child seats in the mini van but the woman that was the driver was alone! so lucky or/and angles were beside her. her van [that stopped behind me about 6 to 8 feet away] pushed into to my truck and bent the bumper and class five trailer hitch with the weight distributing hitch installed [see pictures] and then pushed my fully stopped 7,200 lb truck eight to ten feet into the truck in front of me. my seat back bent under the impact back about 35% to 40% and twisted clockwise about 5%.

thank you

Craig. no it wasn't the teener. this stuff really makes me wounder if its worth enjoying this great little car with the risk of greater injury and complete loss of the car if in some accident.
how many teeners have been totaled in the past six months here? just a shame. i wpould hate to feel that the only time i could take it out would be for parades and shows. not enjoy this car the way it was ment to be.

914s were never big cars. Today's SUV mentality makes them that much smaller and less visible. Driving mine back from St. Louis to Chicago after I bought it, I remember glancing over at a 4x4 that was passing me. The top of his wheel well was right about level with my eyes.

When on the road in the teener, I go out with the same mind-set that I did when I was riding motorcycles... That everyone is deliberately trying to kill me. If I couldn't strap on the helmet with that in mind, I didn't take the bike. For me, the same thing applies to the teener. If I can't get in the car and realise that I'm on the deffensive from the moment I get on the street, I don't drive it. And for me, the best defense is a good offense. Just like on the track, anticipate, and predict, avoid situations where you have to react instead. Hell, sometimes I think bikes are more visible than the teener...
