Default Commander 1 RAV4 0

Chick in a RAV4 hit the back of the XH today while my wife was out in it .

RAV4 was bent from bonnet to A pillar on LHS, XH will need a new bumper & tailgate skin. No pics afraid, mrs didn't think to take any, but from her description brand new RAV4 will go straight to the wreckers.

Did your air bag or curtains explode open?

It was a straight (well, angled kinda straight) rear ender so airbags and stuff weren't deployed. They had both been stationery and for some dumb reason the chick planted her foot and went wacko (in more ways than one). RAV4 went under as much as it hit, bits of her bumper were caught up on the towbar brackets on the under side of mine .

JDU I know you've had a couple of issues but methinks you're being a little too tough on them. Panel shop where we get our work done was saying that they had another commander in recently, same story of something small up the rear end of the Xh, other car was destroyed just abouyt with only minor damage (relative to impact) on the XH.
