Excursion vs Subaru

Wife backed out of the garage and while trying to figure out why I was yelling and waving my arms backed into the excursion. I'm going to give the excursion the win.

No, that was the year before that was all included. I think we're going to just trade it in like that and she gets the minivan she's been wanting instead of sinking money(deductible) into fixing the car and getting higher premiums just to sell/trade it in, in a year.

I thought this was going to be a comparison thread like "which one should I buy?" or "watch this excursion blast up a hill that some subaru bro got stuck on"

But that's a big ouch for the subaru. Was there anything besides the light on the ex?

Yeah, had that happen too; feels/looks like this Ex has seen it all. (didn't get a good pic of the Impala, but this pic is a pretty good representation of the damage).
