Damage to Ruby.
From tipping over:
1) Left mirror ripped off.
2) Left saddle bag scraped up.
3) Trunk lid scraped.
4) Left fender out of alinement.
5) Windshield brackets broken (2 busted, don't trust the 3rd).
6) Windshield scraped up.
7) Broken mounts on Tupperwhere panel under mirror.
From rolling down driveway and into ditch:
1) Right front nose panel shoved back.
2) right front nose chrome busted.
Damage done to us:
Me: abdominal bruising. CAT scan said I was O.K.
Her: Bruised elbow.
She sure that I did that on purpose. We were really lucky with this. We are surprised that came off as well as we did. Getting too old for much more luck.

That's pretty extensive... I hope that there's nothing structural; damaged up front.

Ruby is at Lifestyles now for an insurance estimate. They will let me know what they find and match it with I found. Wonder if this blew my laser alinement?

Sorry to get a chuckle out of your misfortune but you have to admit the mental image is funny.  Now for the serious part I do back out of my shop down my driveway such as you were doing. I very well could have done exactly the same thing.  Thanks for the heads up.

Well, I just got a call today from Lifestyles with the estimate to fix Ruby.
$8245.
Haven't heard from the insurance company yet.
Hope that they'll cover it. I can expect my premiums to increase.

Sorry to see the bottom line?
As I've said many a time before, thanking the big guy upstairs is proper, a good thing to do.
You do know how fortunate you actually were, that this wasn't a much worse ending, particularly in the personal physical injury department. You two are blessed to be sitting here telling the tale.
The full price of your admission, on the next SpYder Ryde is going to cost a pretty penny.
That is no pun and not much fun at all.
I Can wait to see pics,,, ;-)
Be well and get better soon, both of you. Take good care of each other.

Poor Ruby
Maybe it's time to trade up to a 2014 as long as you get a red one to match your trailer. Glad you 2 are both ok and just have scraps and bruises. As said above we all have learned something about going in reverse.
