North central Texas, though I think I actually saw more vehicles like that on a trip to New Mexico.

I was at Sonic the other day, and there was a couple in a Suburban that had the "rollover arch" to the roof, no windows on the back half, and an amazing amount of crap stuffed in the back. (I don't know how any of it stayed in.) I couldn't see the inspection sticker, but judging by the headlight hanging from its wires, it probably wasn't current.

Wow, and I thought the wooden spoilers on banged up civics and electrical tape covering rust spots we get around here were bad.

I'm sorry to hear about your Blazer but I'm glad to hear that everyone was okay. At least it was a good wreck. I'd be pissed if my Jimmy or Caprice was totaled for some stupid reason. If you're going to crash, do it right and make it good. It looks like you had the road closed. Pretty impressive. But, like I said, at least everyone was okay. Hell, and you got a newer Trailblazer out of it.
