Hello fellow PPCC members: First off I am fine not injured and now on Sat morning very little stiff/sore. Car fared badly. The power train was pushed so far forward the shift tube is doubled up and the the tunnel is deformed . The rear castings and dist and oil cooler are crushed. The Bellhousing is broken as well as the diff. The trans is broken inside it is in neutral but stuck in a gear. The top is bowed upward and with the pass side windows up I can stick my hand between the glass and the the roof rail inside the car. Both doors open but the door glass in the dr side overlaps the quarter glass a full inch.  The seat rails are still secure but the seat back is broken. Even the pass side seat back is broken and I was alone in the car. I was barely moving and the Ford Fusion was 70mph or more. There was a traffic mess in front of me and everyone was just inching along. I knew I was going to be hit hard. The Fusion was crushed almost to the windshield. Her air bag saved her. Thanks for the concern and notes I am fine.  Best wishes to all Steve
