One incredibly lucky Challenger Owner

The OKC metro area got hit with something like 19 separate tornadoes last night. One of them hit this business and completely demolished the building. The only thing left standing was this Challenger on a lift that looks to have suffered only relatively minor damage. Someone must be living right.

A while back a tornado took a house in Moore and the only thing left was the concrete slab and a Vette that was in the garage. Vette looked untouched. Tornado damage is pretty weird and unpredictable.

That's awesome. My aunt lost her house twice in both the big Moore tornadoes, the last one destroyed the whole house but left all 4 walls of the garage standing and her brand new rav4 with paper tags still on it sat inside untouched. It was pretty amazing. Tornados do some crazy things for sure. Looks like today and tomorrow might bring some more. Especially tomorrow.

It's the only thing heavy enough to not get blown away.

Pretty crazy. I hope they are able to rebuild quickly.

Now that's funny right there. It even held down the rack and kept it from blowing away.

The tornado probably thought "oh hell, that's George Washington's ride. Not touching that one."

I wonder if the rack was bent by the weight of the car before the storm? You need an underground garage up there.
