I'd never have thought that the phone company junction boxes were tough enough to do a lot of damage. Well found out that if you hydroplane into one they tend to tear your car up a lot.No more 7th gen for about a month

hehe, thats pretty funny. I was holding a tow rope tied to the back of my friends jeep and I was snowboarding through a parking lot -and he went to turn, totally started sliding and ran into one of those big green electrical boxes (i think thats what those are) -the jeep got jacked! Not a scratch on the green box though. I think they make those ***** super strong for idiots like us.
