JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Default Who says Jeeps dont roll well?

I was T-Boned at an intersection..Flipped 3-4 times..landed upside down..she rolls well..I think the new tires gave me some extra bounce too.

Glad you ok. FRom the pictures you took I would say that your Jeep held up very well for rollling 3-4 times. I have seen a lot of roll over crashes with tons of damage.
Again Glad you are ok Keep us posted as to what they are gonna do with your Jeep.

lol..it was hit by a 3/4 ton ford on his front end..poor jeep didnt have a chance.. and you guys are absolutely right..its only a jeep..thats what insurance is for..BTW..I have had the jeep for less than a month..ouch..thats hurts saying.

The only bad thing is that it landed upside down and ran for a little bit before it was turned off..Im hoping they just total it..I'll buy another one and get the things I didnt like changed and just bet a better jeep. Im thinking 4 door..less likely to flip being longer..haha.better gears and such.

Good news..I think the tailgate is salvageable.

first, very happy that you're ok.

second, it appears that the driver's door was the point of impact? so, if that door took a hit hard enough to cause the jeep to roll repeatedly, i have to say that it held up VERY well.
