Well we were driving on I85 in Greensboro and a guy in a pickup had an unsecured load. Wind gust and then next thing you know stuff came flying out and hit the front of the Mariner, and the windshield. Talked to the service guys and it looks like I just lost the AC condenser. But because the system lost pressure they say that it shouldn't be driven because of the AC system for the hybrid system? Thats fine with me, as long as the insurance company agrees.

Now for the funny of the day. What got smashed against the front of my Mariner? A 3ft tall statue of Jesus...


I have already heard all the jokes about it being an act of god...

PS The insurance adjuster called and stated that falling objects are considered to be an "act of god." When I stopped laughing, I told her what hit the car... She said this is a first...

Depending on which end hit the condenser, I might be able to charge admission...
