The rundown on my '92 Mariner Blue...
Guy let a buddy drive his Miata and said buddy smacked a Texas curb at 20MPH. Going with my rule of thumb that all stupid accidents are divided by at least two, when telling other's, we'll say he smacked a curb at 40MPH. Got the car for a screaming deal and towed it home.
