    IMG_0136.jpg IMG_0140.jpg IMG_0142.jpg IMG_0144.jpg IMG_0147.jpg IMG_0149.jpg Well I rolled my jeep yesterday. I was on my way home from work around 6:30 and i decided i was gonna stop by a buddies house to see if he found the deer blind he was going to give me... Well he wasnt home so i figured i would just take the backroad to my house. I made the wrong choice. Roads were bad so i was only doing about 20 in 4-hi as i was going down a hill a yearling decided to run out infront of me, Note the whole road was snow covered and icy so i didnt hit the brakes or swerve and just barely missed the deer but about 100 yards after that hit solid ice and there was nothing i could do good thing i was only going about 15 during this but i did a 180 hit a deep ditch and over she went.. Im still in highschool so i dont have the fund to buy another so im going to dry the plugs and top off the fluids and see if she will run i shut it off right as it flipped since it was such a slow roll. Luckily i didnt get any tickets.:woot:

    Most important thing is you walked away unhurt. All else is small stuff. Glad you are OK.

    Glad your okay! My first vehicle was the same style you have just a little older. It was my favorite vehicle I ever owned. I'm surprised I never rolled her over.
