Default Never thought it would happen

Not sure if tire went from a pothole or if ball joint went. Either way lost control, went off the side of the road, avoided hitting trees or anything head on.. We are ok, but I'm sick about the truck.. Not sure yet if they will fix it or total it, waiting on adjuster.

Glad you're ok... I can understand being sick about the truck, but it looks repairable... Keep us posted.

Hope yours goes better than mine. Was in a accident on Dec 27
Not my fault and I think they are going to total it out. Only taken a month.

@leopold
That sure doesn't look like $11,000 in damages, what's broken underneath?

Looks like:
  • New Hood
  • New Fender
  • New Bumper
  • New Bumper Valence
  • New Headlight
  • New Fog Light
  • Straighten out fender frame

What's broken that we can't see?

I think I would be heart-broken if I wrecked my truck and the insurance company totaled it. My truck's one of the few things in life I have an emotional attachment to. I think I'd be more sad about the truck than if my dog died lol.


@05XLT8'
Hang in there man. That looks easily repairable. Best of luck to you too!

That really doesn't look total-able. You going to buy it back? What all broke. As for [MENTION=48128]05XLT8'[/MENTION] sorry about your truck but it doesn't look totaled.

Yeah I do plus uninsured and underinsured. Wife spent 3 hrs in emergency room. She's still hurting some.
We were heading to Kentucky to move the oldest one home. This happened 45 min into the trip there.

The best part is that ****er will be liable for every penny of damage to your car, and bodily injury to your wife and the rest of your family (assuming you have personal injury protection as part of your plan).

And if he doesn't have insurance because he's an illegal immigrant, he'll most likely get deported. Karma's a bitch
