Whoaa, thats pretty crazy. Hope everyone was not injured too greatly. That being said, the underside of the Riot looks like you think it would.

Parts!

Glad to see the drive of the Jeep is safe.

Sometimes you just have to wonder how people get in these accidents. It must be difficult to be able to flip a Patriot onto it's roof in the middle of a street.

Just noticed you attached the article.. The Altima must've been going pretty fast to knock over the Patriot.

That'll buff out.

Glad no one was seriously injured. What a difference seat belts make.

That's how you empty out the pat after a sunroof leak.

Notice how streamlined everything is underneath.
Sign of a good 4x4.
Most awd's have all sorts of nasties underneath asking to get snagged

This.

One of the things that chenced the deal for me was how clean the underside was. I see CRVs and Rav 4's with all kinds of stuff hanging out in the breeze. Exhausts with loops and bends a good 4" below the chassis line. Out there to be ripped off. Amazing.

Good visual to show people where the jacking points are..

Toyota and Lexus always had that exhaust looping down halfway back. Looks like the only way to cross over is to hook it down. Bad engineering I think.
