Geez. Based on his girth in the driver's seat, I suspected he was in his 50's. Fat, young and careless driving isn't going to lead to a long life.

The judging of others on this forum has no limits. Too many doors. Too old. Too many accessories. Too fat. Poser. Stupid.
Not saying I’ve never done it…but I’m trying to be better. I must be getting older.
I know I’ll be judged for this! 😆

LANDERS — An Arizona man was flown to Desert Regional Medical Center with major injuries in the wake of a three-vehicle collision around 8:17 a.m. Monday, Feb. 3, on Old Woman Springs Road at Mikiska Boulevard.

A report from the California Highway Patrol said Diego Figueroa, 35, of Riverside, was driving a 2021 Ford Bronco west on Mikiska Boulevard, approaching the uncontrolled intersection with Old Woman Springs Road “at an excessive speed.”

Figueroa, the CHP stated, drove across Old Woman Springs Road without slowing and crashed into a northbound 2019 Ford F150 trailering a Toyota 4 Runner, driven by Warren Fasching, 23, of Dewey, Arizona.



The vehicles crashed into a southbound 2007 Winnebago driven by Steven Long, 62, of Vista, who was towing a box trailer.

All involved vehicles sustained major damage.


Figueroa and Long suffered injuries that the CHP suspected were minor.

Fasching was flown to Desert Regional Medical Center with suspected major injuries.

Alcohol was not a suspected factor, according to the CHP.

The crash remains under investigation.
That same Bronco appears to be on this website https://www.quadratec.com/p/smittybilt/apollo-rear-bumper-21-bronco-78784

note the “AZTEC” sticker on the tailgate below the Ford oval. You can just see it on the crash photo. Same tailgate reinforcement and bumper too.

There’s no way he didn’t see that T intersection where that dirt met the pavement. Let alone the traffic. Sad day for everyone involved.
It's a four way. I think he tried to thread the needle, but he's not good at judging speed/distance of other vehicles.

Nice catch. Bet those quadratec upgrades made him felt invincible!
HA! yeah. Looks like those photos on the quadratec website are actually from Smittybilt. The photos of this Bronco show up on several of Smittybilt product pages. I guess the Bronco is/was owned by someone connected to them or at least someone who let them use his Bronco for sales photos.
