That's some pothole to take out the bumper and rocker panels as well as the suspension bits. Were you on a road?

That sucks.
Michigan has some BAD roads too. Rated 2nd worst in the country, behind only PA, I think. I hate potholes.

I know that PR can take the title for Potholes they are all over, and when they do fix it it gets bigger and deeper, hope all goes well for you.
