2019 with performance chips Has close to 250 hp Not a fast and furious car but not factory stock My son supped up my 4 banger No nitro involved

I was gonna say, i gotta 1st generation CRV and just getting that thing up to 85 or so on the highway involves luck and a prayer. Has the chip affected the mileage?

He is still in a coma according to The DR and he responds at times when the DR yells at him to wake up I think his wife is telling them to not share much info At 1st she was blocking visitors She found out real fast that was a mistake

If he's responding that much at all, I believe he's closer to a minimally conscious state than a vegetative state...which means he's not brain dead. There's lots of research out there on it and the stuff you describe is much closer to positive signs than negative. Is it a certainty? No.

You're evil DIL's obfuscation isn't helping. It sickens me that some people are like that. A suspicious part of me suspects she wants to ensure he passes to collect money because otherwise why try to be so secretive?

Being a female, I disagree 110%. What goes on between a husband & wife is nobody's business. Why some men always look to a female as being the vindictive one is mind boggling, unless they experienced as such personally.

Why on earth would she want her husband to pass as you say, "to collect money". It's not as though she tried to kill him & wanted him dead. The couple have a huge lawsuit ahead of them against the person who was at fault in that Cadillac. The Mrs. needs her husband to survive not only because he's the love of her life, but also to be coherent so he can testify in court. Not wanting visitors is her prerogative like it or not. The spouse is always the closest relative.

The smell of money makes people grow horns. Bluntly speaking if he dies she gets ALL the money. Makes the lawsuit look better; as sick as that sounds its true.

At 1st I was told he was side swiped from behind Official accident reports Head on Was on a 2 lane HWY The person that hit him was passing a car at accelerated speed Report says around 75 mph at impact Plus his legal speed limit at 65 mph He is lucky he is not out of the hospital yet

So a combined speed of 140 mph?

I do not know how to calculate the the impact speed The witness said he flew over the car that hit him and he went over her also She was right behind him and almost hit her
I would assume if it was head on, you would just add the two speeds together to come up with the impact speed. But if he didn't actually hit her car, and was just thrown from the bike, I guess it would only be the 65 mph he was travelling.

It's a miracle he survived at all, and a testament to everyone that treated him. There's still hope and that is amazing.
