Gravity, Ice, and the law of conservation of energy conspire to break a rocker arm (at least) and render my wheels worthless. :(
Got some cell phone pics. Only uploaded one so far (need to get a BlueTooth adapter for my PC...) And I haven't rotated it. but for your gloating pleasure:
*Update* Too much damage for the tire place to fix it. Having it towed to a collision specialist. Not sure what I'm going to do yet. If it's 2-3K to fix, my insuracnce premiums would go up by %45, or $700/yr. If it's more than 3K, it's a %65 hit. So it's possibly right at the point that just junking it and getting a new, though pretty cheap, car would be as good a solution financially. Whatever I got from the insurance company would be paid directly back to them over three years. So it'll take some figuring to determine the best course.
Here be more pictures. Anything that's behind the wheel is probably upside down.
