I have been in the place you are now and it's tough... There is not much anyone can say but only time that will pass and make things easier, just remember the good things and times, honor your friends memory...
Reading this just brought back so many memories for me, I have lost a few good friends and my best friend over the past few years...
I am truly sorry for your loss.
You may hear many things about the members of this forum, but one thing for sure is we all stick together and I'm sure everyones thoughts are with you so I hope that brings some comfort.
Keep your head up my friend.

My condolences

I can't stop shaking head. I am fortunate enough to have a few very good friends and I can't even begin to imagine my life without them. I am gonna call and tell them to drive safely or else I will kick their asses. Bro, my deepest thoughts are with you, your friend, and his family.

The G is a heavy and safe car. The long hood, crumple zones, same chassis as the FX35/45 SUV, air bags, etc. make it one of the safest rides on the road for the money.

Thanks for the encouragement guys.
It seems like every time I convince myself he is in a better place, I see a picture of him and feel sad all over again. It's like a never ending emotional roller coaster.
Anyways, I hope you guys all drive safe. So many people die from stupid things like car accidents. If you die, you don't know how many people will be hurting for you.

They're both hospitalized. One of them has a broken collar bone. Hopefully, it's not a serious injury

Btw, Klumzyee, thats crazy. So the light post literally went all the way through your front hood? That's like my friend's accident.

Death never seemed so real as it does to me right now. I'm still in shock, but I realize this is how life is. One minute, you're here, the next minute, you're gone.

Sorry I just needed to write out my thoughts somewhere...

On a side note, how safe is the g35? car safety seems so important all of a sudden.
So sorry to hear of your friends demise, James.
Yes life can be very fragile at times, and our G's certainly make life a little safer for us.

Sincere condolences to your friend's family......

C.
