CRAZY!

Looks like he beat Crashy... Lulz.

*Astroman* · 01-12-2010, 09:28 PM

I want to kill him.

Pardon my language but what a fucking idiot! There better be charges for that crap.

auxmike · 01-12-2010, 09:30 PM

That's rough!
I doubt the guy wanted to intentionally hurt the Yaris.....

YAR1S · 01-12-2010, 09:31 PM

psh.... Im hoping he was joking and that was a car like crashy.... no other purpose then to chnage it into some sort of off road vehicle?? major FAIL tho for not raising it up.

Well with him not having rental coverage, he should be 100% liable for the damages, or at least his insurance company will pay for it, and so will he.

Busted..hope his rental company sees this!

IllusionX · 01-12-2010, 10:11 PM

Well, i've read though the middle section of the post...

As Doug said... Idiot of the Year right there!

I literally laughed the whole time reading. How funny this must have been for these guys on their expedition to have a Yaris stroll through randomly. I love this...

cali yaris · 01-13-2010, 12:13 AM

go yaris!!

LtNoogie · 01-13-2010, 12:26 AM

Kinda off thread but I got to ride my mountain bike in Moab. One of the highlights of my life. Isn't there a Mecca where all Yaris owners want to drive their cars?

Greensboro or something?

Altitude · 01-13-2010, 02:02 AM

I think it's friggin hilarious. I wonder if he bothered to pick up the pieces and put them in the back?

Thirty-Nine · 01-13-2010, 01:02 PM

Paris-Dakar Yaris?

MadMax · 01-13-2010, 07:20 PM

He would have to be a complete fucknut to post pics of a rental showing the license plate (CO 440 TLW) as someone could easily run the tag and determine that the damage was intentional.

However, I agree with YAR1S in that is was probably someone's personal car. However, the guy in the pic doesn't look too bright...

Mobius1 · 01-13-2010, 07:43 PM

I just like seeing the video of off-road yaris action(or lack of action) but still makes me want to rally the yaris.

Listen carefully and hear:
"That's unbelievable! Was that Borat"?
LOL, what a cool video!

Also, notice the front bumper is still attached at this point too...

haa yeah of course... Greensboro is yaris mecca... you must make the trip at least once in the life of your yaris by law.

why? · 01-13-2010, 09:47 PM

that is quite impressive, actually. Somehow I really doubt a normal person could get the car there, if it really is as difficult a trail as that dude was saying. I bet they were set up somehow. But that dude still didn't do enough to the car for it to be able to do that.
