<sigh>
I'm alright. Very mild concussion, from the airbag. Right front tire hit the mud, rear end started sliding to the right, sending the nose into the opposite lane. The headlights there seemed to indicate that entering that lane might be a bad idea, so I overcorrected [can't try too hard to avoid a head-on collision, I think]. Went sideways, into the ditch. Bumper hit the tree in a spinning impact, bounced the rear end up. It came down, took a nice chunk out of the asphalt, and put a nice 45* bend in the tie rod on that rear wheel. Radiator's toast. Subframe appears to be twisted a bit in the front. Hood and right quarter panel are slightly bent. Oddly enough, the tires and wheels seem to have survived the abuse. Wasn't too worried until I noticed that the driver's door gaps are off... |

Probably a combination of having been up for about 26 hours and taking the turn a bit too fast.

I'm sorry to hear that. But the main thing is you are alright.
