My Mustang GT is Officially Totaled...

I didn't want to admit it, but it's time to say goodbye to one of my favorite vehicles I've ever owned - my 2018 Mustang GT with a VMP Supercharger kit that was my 750HP daily driver. I have countless memories, roadtrips, and amazing times with incredible people who all helped me with this project. The damage from the collision is unfortunately just too much - so...now what?

Thanks for all the support guys, no matter what I do next.

RIP Mustang, at least you and your wife is safe that is the main thing.

David, use a thermal image camera if you can borrow one. Open and lock all the doors, let the car go in sleep mode and look around for warm electronics and relays that won't "sleep".
Can someone like for David to see this?

I passed an Altima on the right yesterday… girl was camping in the passing lane looking down at her phone, had no idea anybody was around her, two cars sitting behind her waiting for her to gtf out the way.

I thought of you at that moment, slowed down, honked my horn to get her looking up and flipped her off for you.

There’s someone somewhere with Voodoo dolls of David and all of his cars and they are freaking relentless dude.

3:32 she's right about the Altima thing. I'm a truck driver. I've driven across the country at over 60k miles in 5 months. Altimas are among the most reckless drivers I have to deal with.

[danbongo]

Build the sickest altima known to man. That's what the universe is telling you.

I feel ya David. In the past year my Dad, grandpa and my family dog passed away. My dad passed away 4 months before my wedding. My WRX that I put a lot of money into got totaled 3 months ago. I also got a nagging back injury from that accident. It seems like its one thing after another but I know I need to perceiver and look at all the good things I have in life.

[Soviet_Kitty]

OFC they were texting and driving. Honestly infuriating how normalized it seems to be and how many accidents it causes. Big F, sorry to see it totaled

[ONlSan]

The idea that anyone would ever go to bat for Nissan Altimas is proof that Twitter will argue in all situations ever

[beetleboy]

I had an electrical draw in one of my cars and it turned out to be the touchscreen radio. That’s definitely something to check out.

Time for you to build a daily F56 Cooper S or JCW! Hugely underrated cars. Comfortable. Handle well (even better with mods). BMW B48 is super reliable and easy to make power! If you do, go ahead and order a full Remus valved exhaust! You will not be disappointed! If you want to drive one hit me up. Currently building my second one now. A 21 MCS 7DCT. So far it has a mild tune, Remus exhaust, H&R springs, & OZ wheels. Brake overhaul and rear sway bar are on the summer things to do list lol. Everyone who's ever taken mine for a spin always gets out with a smile and says "I had no idea these were so good." Probably not gonna win any drag races but they are damn good in the twisty stuff!

Take a breath. Get yourself centered and squared away. You've done alot, and continue to put up a positive front. Sometimes you need a short burst of venting and screaming in the pillow.

You got this. These are short term speed bumps. Take a break, refill the tanks. And push forward again.

[speedfiend]

I vote for a 2024 Mustang GT with a VMP blower. HELL YEAH! Glad you and your wife are ok. 🙂

[AeroCS]

Same thing happened to my Focus RS a few weeks ago. I was sitting at a stoplight and a F150 ass packed a chevy blazer and pushed it into me. Insurance totaled it but gave me a clean title, so it worked out.

[VeteranStories]

I appreciate your full transparency David. You guys got this!

[GODZILLA]

Dude I swear altima drivers are like the most dangerous drivers, I'm so sorry to see that clean mustang get totaled man. Best of luck to you

Same thing happened to me at the end of february, I know your pain.
I had a 2008 vw rabbit that I bought at the end of january last year. I put almost every hour of free time I had into that car. Redid the interior, fixed a ton of random crap. I got a short runner intake manifold, catback exhaust, stiffer motor mounts, coil-overs, some Audi wheels, and some cosmetic things. I was my first car, and I fell in love with it, the five cylinder in that car is literally the best sounding motor I have heard, and the N/A induction noises with the short runner manifold were intoxicating. I went to so many meets, kept up with cars that I had absolutely no right to with 210hp and no turbo. It was so much fun. I drove that car every single day. I had plans to put in a built six speed and turbo it, but now that will never happen, all because someone rear ended me.
All the time and money that I put into that car, gone. Right when I was at a point where I was content too, I had fixed just about every problem on the car, and gotten all the mods I wanted, then this idiot in an old beat up Sentra rear ends me at a light.

It really is making me asking myself if modding cars is worth it, all of this commitment, just to get it taken away because of someone else's incompetence. And now I am left without my car, and like half the money that I put into it.

I hope things get better for you and you end up getting something positive out of this whole conundrum. I have loved your channel ever since I found it, when I found out you started out in VB I became an instant fan lol.

[LucoreAuto]

Totally feel your pain man, felt crushed when my New Edge I had highly modified was stolen and crashed up a tree. Absolutely crushed me and sending that thing off to a yard never to be seen again REALLY hurt. I drove mine back from the the wrecking yard to the shop put see it on the rack one last time.

Just very glad to hear your lady was safe.

Edit : Sammy get the salt!!

she wasn't wrong about the Altima
I got side swiped by one awhile ago
