    In reply to Tiger Woods' Escalade: Complete Cadillac Carnage Gallery
    After running this through our collision estimating software (I work for a software company in the space), this appears to be $5,070.66 worth of damage. Obviously without inspecting the vehicle in person, I could be off by a bit but I think this is pretty close. My assumptions was that this is a 2008 Escalade ESV Platinum in Black Mica.

    Tiger, just a word of advice: You can rent 5 top shelf hookers for the cost of this damage. They specialize in discretion; it's sort of their stock in trade, if you know what I mean. I strongly suggest that your consider this next time you're needing a little "strange."

    @Brian: Ok, I was way off. My labor rates were set to zero and I didn't account for front suspension, core support or replacing the front rim/tire.

    Revised bid: $9,900 (or 10 top-shelf hookers)

    I guess the physics book didn't state "For every hot mistress there is an equally pissed off spousal reaction."

    I think he was reading that book when he crashed. Explains the crash and also the book ricocheted around breaking the windows.

    I am sure the probability theory might explain the odds that a textbook on physics could bounce around a Cadillac interior and break two windows on opposite sides of the car leaving the glass inside.

    I wonder if the book said "Oh no not again."

    Scientists will be studying this for years.

    This is a proper SUV, built by winter-crazed Canuckians.

    That thing at the top of the page is just a Freightliner with a truck bed and a camper top. And I can't wait to see photos of it with a phone pole up its nose - you know that's what comes next, right?

    -edit- Aw, dang. The photo won't post and the company seems to have gone toes-up, or else I'd get art directly from them.

    No worries. There are additives from the aftermarket which extenze your mileage. Plus, they don't harm the environment.
