Bad floods in Tucson AZ = NO BUMPER!

Yeah so I went outside on Saturday morning to find this....




The streets were so flooded in front of the house that the water pressure built up inside the rear bumper cavity and tore it off... IT TORE THE THING CLEAR THE OFF!! I AM !!! Sorry! So I call my insurance, drop it off monday morning, get to the rental place (no HHR's only PT's and not one to rent so get a Cobalt nothing in it but an auto, AC and a CD player), and now I am waiting to hear back. This sucks. AND we have MORE rain to come... By the way... a wash nearby called the Rillito Wash Which is around 10 ft deep looked like a raging river! We had a RIVER in AZ! Kinda neat but yeah so I am still mad. Oh well. Be back on the road in the HHR soon! I hope! Once again sorry for the rage!

Sorry to see and hear about what happen. I saw the flooding on TV but did not think it was that bad on the streets. Thought it was just the river and right there by it. Gina also said sorry to hear what happen , she almost fell over when she seen the photo.

No other damages, just a missing bumper. The water was just above the running boards and rushing down the street in a make shift natural disaster movie (small scale version of course!).
