That is so wrong, don't let her in your car again..

OK, WE know that the camaro can't be forced into park at 50 mph, but she didn't. She was trying to kill you. This was an attempted murder-suicide. She shouldn't just be thrown out of the car, she should be thrown in prison, because she's crazy enough that she tries to kill people when she's upset.

Reading this thread makes me feel better... Love the acronym though.

We we're swapping front pads last night in my ZL1 (I was just handing tools and talking). Everything was finished we jumped in the car and I started it. At that moment my son distracted me to tell me that the car could be heard at the back of the house with headphones on. I laughed and being distracted I did not pump the brakes. I step on the break and at that moment my brain said go ahead and shift it in reverse. The car immediately rockets backwards on an incline towards my Cruze. Now in complete panic mode my dumbass slams it in to park. It rolled to the bottom of the drive way making a clicking noise.

Now I know this is not ever a good thing but it's fine. Car still holds in park on an incline.

Its spring loaded for park-it's pretty forgiving so you should be fine

Dood had his pickup hit in the back by a huge loader in a quarry. I can't remember exactly all the damages but I know I put a new auto trans case in it and a few other parts. Brand new truck too.

It reminded me of a joke...

I'm calling work saying I'm not coming in today my wife crashed my Camaro.

The boss asks... I'm so sorry. Is the wife okay?
....so far yes . She locked herself in the bathroom!
