1,000 yrs old, 200ft tall Sequoia crushes Jeep Grand Cherokee
 

Wow....not much left......No injuries luckily...

I suppose if my jeep was ready to go to off-roading heaven,..I'd much rather
it get squashed by a giant redwood than wrecked in a big city,
or shot up by gangs...

LMAO... Talk about totaled. What kind of luck do you have to have for a
tree that's 1000 years old to fall on the day you parked next to it.

Can you imagine...you're on vacation and your vehicle gets crushed? That
would really suck. I hope that their insurance covers it.

It happened in Kalifornia. I suspect by this time, the Jeep owner
has been presented with a bill for the Sequoia and a citation for
parking where the tree could hit an SUV.

Approximately 8/20/03 06:02, Chad Fraker uttered for posterity:

I thought Kalifornia's parks were already closed to vehicle
traffic, and may only be access by tour bus.
