Tips for avoiding or clearing up fogged windows

Make sure that the climate control is not set on 'recirculate'. Inside air can try to get even more humid that outside air just from the moisture in your breath. When it finds out that it can't getpast 100% relative humidity, it keeps condensing on all of the cool surfaces instead. . . . . . like the insides of the glass.

Use the A/C, with a little heat if necessary. Warm, dry air works wonders.

Sorry to hear of the mishap, but it sounds like nobody got hurt and the damage isn't all that bad.

Not trying to preach, but 3K in 1st gear and 55 mph on highway are the things that stand out to me in your post. Not a good idea in a torrential downpour with a RWD car. Lessned leaned it seems. Gad it wasn't worse.
No i was not in 3rd doing 55 on the interstate, i was in 5th then. When i was taking the turn however i shifted to 3rd at like 30-35ish, because it isn't sharp or anything, it is wide, but i just felt it start slipping and then next thing i know off the side of a hill and down i went.

It's not too bad. Looked at it today and it looks like someone backed into me. There is a crack, and some white paint. It's not near as bad as what i was thinking.

So good news is, only the bumper is damaged and nothing else. Bad news, is bumper probably needs replacement.

HAHA, always have to see pics... Man that does suck!!!

I would call a couple junk yard before ordering from newtakeoff.com. Sometimes the shipping is crazy and your on the east coast like me so it will probably be the same for you.
