You know if they have cams anywhere near that area you shoudl contact your local HWY dept and ask them to review footage.

What you can't see in the photos: rear of car is destoyed, every wheel is pointing in a different direction, the firewall near lh door is pushed down about 6 inches. I'll have to check and see if they have cameras in that area, thats a great idea.

Dam that suck I'm sorry, I know what it's like to loose your Rex. I had an 18 wheeler hit me in December of last year. . . My car was also a total loss. You just have to get back on that horse again.

It's good that you didn't suffer any major injuries, though.

You should post some type of Fake Kennel found add on local criaglist or something. Maybe by chance they need a new one now....

I'd say your best bet is to have someone review any highway camera footage that they can find on that date in that time frame for any vehicle(s) that match that description. Even if you can find the license plates of 10 Dodges in that footage, that would at least give you a list of names and numbers to call.

It's always rednecks in their trucks. Me and my girlfriend were almost crushed on I-10 last night because some fatass (who had no side mirror) didn't feel like turning his fat neck a whole 90 degrees to see if anybody was in the right lane. ******* Louisiana.

Did you already report it to the PD? They're generally worthless but there's no harm in trying.

Would this qualify as hit and run? It's definitely flight from the scene of an accident. +1 on the check footage. I'm sure there's a camera on the road somewhere.

Wow Freddie, glad you made it out of that ok. There are way too many irresponsible people on the roads these days that just don't think.

I posted an ad in the local paper with the $1500 reward and no one came forward yet, I am a little bummed. I want to rebuild if I can find a nice straight body shell

yeah one is mostly carbon and in your area. Not what I would look for, but I know you can work magic so it might be right up your alley.
