6 foot 8 inches...musta been one heck of a head ache
This is all I have left of my Jeep
Sorry to here that glad your OK. As far as the impound goes Yes as soon as CHP is on Scene it is there Discretion of what they do with it!!!!!! I have done several of recoveries much like this and it can get real expensive real quick!!!! Usually about $200.00 per hour min of 2 hrs and $40.00 per day storage. as far as personal property goes as long as you are the legal registered owner you can get your personals out of it with out a problem. (but your screwed if your not the owner unless the owner is present) some agencies may require a personal properly release usually at no cost.........GOOD LUCKOnce the CHP is on scene, it's theirs I believe, especially if its already hooked to the tow truck's winch.
Glad you made it out alive! I'm guessing you guys were both belted up? i can't believe the airbad didn't go off, I set mine off by hitting a rut and jarring the steering wheel to the side. Looks like you sit back pretty far I'd bet that's one of the main reasons you both walked away.
That really stinks about the charge, but off road recovery is big dollars. You might want to make sure they don't charge you with illegal dumping. Did they cite you at all?
Will they let you go get your personal items out of it? If you find out what impound lot it went to sometimes they will let you go get your stuff out of the vehicle if you're nice about it.
Glad you made it ok, welcome to the rolled my jeep club. Heres a pic of mine when she rolled, just a few dents. Before and after pics.:
I'm not sure which looked worse, you or the jeep! :shocked:Glad you made it ok, welcome to the rolled my jeep club. Heres a pic of mine when she rolled, just a few dents. Before and after pics.:
Sorry about your loss man... I might be able to help with your 'new jeep fund'. How big was the lift, and how much do you want for it?
