Early substantuated reports indicated some type of steering failure. His family later stated that both the new Sway Bar and Steering was NOT at fault. However, the vehicle remains inpounded and continues to be inspected. Early reports from within the Sheriff's office said the remains of both front wheels were facing outward. Thus the early thought that steering may have been the issue. It is now theorized that was a result of the crash itself.
The sheriff's office will not make any additional statements as yet. I have a contact in our Sheriff's dept who is watching for any further news on this subject for me. Apparently his source, was making assumptions of what seemed obvious at the time.

Does anyone know how the driver of the other vehicle is doing? He also may be able to provide some input on what happened.

God speed my friend - until we meet again. I will be attending the viewing tomorrow evening and of course I'll wear a blue & orange shirt. My wife and I are having difficulty coming to grips, I can't even fathom what his family is going through.

Reading that seems to show what a great family he must have left behind. Orange and blue in his honor, very good attitude to have during such difficult times. Condolences to his family.

And I would just like to mention one more thing.

That picture of Kyle sticking his tongue out reminds me of myself... a total goof.

Kyle, I didn't know you, but your passing was entirely too soon. Your family and friends miss you, and every Mustang owner does as well.

Take care friend, we'll see you soon.

Just got on to check how things were and saw the bad news. Hope his gift helps other families. Sad to hear that two young Stangers lost their lives. Thoughts and Prayers to both Kyle and Jeremy's families.

Wow!!!

So sorry to hear this.

This is the second Mustang enthusiast to pass on this month that I know of.

How sad!
