5043, Another One Bites The Dust! Pics* Posted by 4hella, Jun-05-01 04:27 AM
Well yes it is my fault, Damm Ford Explorer hit a car in front of me and I hit it. Was going to swerve into right lane but there was a car there.

Rear *note* wasn't hit from behind, look at trunk gap.

sorry for your misfortune. so even though the truck in front of u caused the wreck the fact that u hit him they r saying it is ur fault? that sucks. i'm sure the insurance will dick u in some way. "organize crime at it's finest". hope it works out for u and get at lease 3 estamites. good luck

Man, sorry about your loss. Glad you made it though. Saddly to say, it does look like insurance will total it.

I'm sorry bud. That look spretty bad.
I think insurance will total it, and probably for the best. With as bad as I think the frame is twisted, like you said look at the trunk. You probably wouldn't be happy with the car when you got it back.

I don't think it looks too bad. But you did hit the front of the car and that's where most of the meet is on a 2GNT. Looks like a hook, fender, bumper, and perhaps a frame and wheel alignment. Plus the engine bay if anything was hit there. It's fixable I'd guess but you'd need lots of $$$$ to fix it. Heh might as well get an aftermarket front bumper and Carbon Fiber hood :) I like dem shuriken wheels any idea how much they weigh?

Yeah, sorry about that, but I think it's totalled. If u didn't get hit from behind, and the hatch opened. I think it bent the whole frame.

aaggh...sorry for you man, extremely. i don't know what i'd do if something like that would happen to me. i know you wanted to go kick some ass!!! if it is totaled, think you could get a few things off of it to sell? the power window/lock control on drivers door with mounting brackets and maybe the cruise control module. if so, email me at bustrblue1@aol.com sorry again, make sure to try and make them pay for it

Thanks Everybody.
Still haven't heard the final word yet. Expect Mon or Tuesday. Don't know what to buy yet, looking for a ride sucks, seems like every thing's a piece of sh!t out there, there all ragged out, plus its very time consuming.
bustrblue1, If I can I will, and for the guy that asked about the visor stuff, same thing. Just don't know if I will see the car again which sucks cause I forgot my garage door opener in it. :(

After all is said and done it looks like I'm walking away with $5,780.50. Was expecting between 4,000 & 6,000. 4 being really low.
Car was in great shape and had 162,000 miles on it.
Might get a chance to get into it tomarrow when I pick up the check for those who need things. I'll let you know if I get them.

Glad to see your alright. I think they can fix it. I have been in a worse front and accident when I had my 1G talon. I slid my car under a camaro and the rear bumper of the camaro was on my windshield (slid on top of my engine). They still fixed it. $6000 dollars to fix it and they dropped me from the insurance company. Oh well...Sh*t happens.
