Damn, Glad you are ok!!! That was one unforgiving hunk of tree. I guess you can thank your ex-ride somewhat for your good fortune (unbelievable!). Simply amazing that you were able to "walk away". If you had a passenger, I hope that they shared your lucky fortune as well. Someone was definitely looking out for you!

Just had another look, and it appears that the Cockpit seems to have survived quite well (considering), as the front end did what it was designed to do...PROTECT!

Glad your alright, and a statement of how safe the CX-5 is to drive, considering you walked away from that!
 
Yeah im fine.... The wife has got a few years worth of mileage out the story. Unfortunately as I crashed the car she has chosen the new car .... Hyundai IX35 diesel. So this will be be the end of me on here & very short lived. Very much enjoyed the CX5 a great drivers car & perfect for outdoors lifestyle.
Cheers guys
