And now they have the PRIUS Attack Force trying to take out our Metros. I call jealousy! Hope all is well with the though.

Accidents are no fun. I lived through one that should have killed me. I broke my neck, three plates in my face, 3 ribs, a broken wrist (bent the steering wheel where I was holding onto it), the funny thing is there wasn't a spot for my legs to go, but I didn't actually have a scratch on them. I hope your injury heals clean and quickly. I dig your electric rides. |

Looks like the Prius won that battle. Glad It wasn't one of the prize ones. |

Here are a couple pics![]() Radiator fan touches the distributor now ![]() The area here that is crunch behind the fuse box is called the upper rail. A proper repair would be to remove and replace this part, which will never happen on a car that is worth less than what an upper rail replacement repair would cost.

Hmmm... Scoobs/EVMetro - Metro lovers with two totally different styles...

Glad you will be okay when the foot/ankle heals! So sad to see another Metro taken out. Poor thing. Maybe at least it can help other Metros live on? |

As it turns out, that foot never got better. I just switched health insurance, and had a new doctor check out the foot to see why it still hurts and why I still limp 8 months later. The x rays show that it did break, even though the last health carrier determined that it had not. It is a mess now, but I am going in for surgery in March so they can fix it right. All of my Metros are 5 speeds, and I need two functioning feet to drive one of these after surgery. This is going to suck going back onto crutches again. I have a 97 altima that has an automatic, but I won't even be able to drive that until the foot heals enough to push a gas pedal. |

It's good you got a proper diagnosis. Hopefully they have a brace that can work for your foot instead of a cast. Or, maybe it's time for you plan your next project - to fit hand controls, or adapt a mechanized dual clutch shift assembly. |

Glad they finally figured out what to do to fix your foot right. Get better soon.

I am hanging out waiting for an mri, and found that this thread was very useful in trying to remember the original date of the injury that I needed for filling out the forms. Now I have a date logged in a good place for me to remember if I ever need to remember when I got the mri done... |

Who knew that Metro fans did double duty as medical record keepers! |
