My buddy in school had just purchased a new Toyota 4X4, and it was awesome... the most desired ride around. About two weeks after taking possession, at the end of an away- football game, as the team and the cheerleaders were loading into the buses, Dave decided to show of with some cool doughnuts in front of this audience. He was tearing it up, until the rear end went through the dirt, but then caught on the lip of the pavement, instead of sliding though. The truck rolled all the way over, rolling on the roof, but then landing back on the wheels. The cab was pretty rugged, only crushed down a few inches... and he drove away. He never even stopped (really the only really cool thing he could claim!). Windshield was opaque, but the windows were gone, so he just stuck his head out the window and got the hell away from his highly --- HIGHLY--- amused audience.
Totalled the rig, insurance wouldn't cover it (not sure why, don't know the details). Dave repaired it himself, had the truck for years afterward... practically, new, but with cracking Bondo, orange peel paint, rattles, squeaks, and leaks... and a regular monthly payment on his brand new truck.
