effingturbo Posted May 4, 2009 Author Share Posted May 4, 2009 man! glad that you and your son are both ok though. From the looks of things, your frame might be damaged enough to have it totaled, or you can atleast press for it because yea, the car might not feel the same again. but hey, it'll be very close the frame is barley moved i didn't even notice till the insurance adjuster told me about it.....i still haven't talked to him today to see what the real damage is but from everything i have gathered they are going to fix it......on a side note i saw your from Roachchester.....i lived there for 6yrs and will be on my way up there this weekend for my friend fat muskas 30th birthday party in wollcott on sat.....but shit if your down i'll be at the monty crown on monroe fri night for some drinks after my 5hr drive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Capacity Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Glad to hear you and your son are ok. The car is fixable or replaceable. Make sure you get a good body shop this is AWD. May be let the Ins agent know your conserned about tire wear after the car is fixed. So you used to be a Honda guy with a quick civic?

NORULZleggy Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 well by the looks of the car and the year, it could be totaled out man, I have an 08 and I hit a small tree and it was 7K here is the pic I know it does not look as bad as yours. I have the list of stuff that was replaced, ie.. 3 wheels, door,suspension and more. I just got my car back a week ago, they had it for a month and a week. I am glad you and the kid are fine, and my side air bags did not go off either, but I sure remember that tree coming at me. http://img401.imageshack.us/img401/5120/pic1t.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasone Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Glad you're ok. I'm having a hard time with the $6k figure based on what I can actually see, let alone what happened underneath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
effingturbo Posted May 4, 2009 Author Share Posted May 4, 2009 Glad you're ok. I'm having a hard time with the $6k figure based on what I can actually see, let alone what happened underneath. like i said that was just a first look at it....they had to get it into the body shop to really take a look at it...that 6k figure i'm pretty sure is minus the suspension shit....when i was with the guy...we did a walk around...and just from that walk around...we where at new hood,new front fender,new side skirt, new head light and tail light,pulling the dent out the back quarter panel....tire and rim...the frame and battery and timing belt cover....i was having a hard time with that figure myself....but he said when they take it apart that i will raise.....no shit is what i thought.....i'm real torn on what i want....part of me wants it fixed cause like i said i'm "attached"...and lgt are not really a dime a dozen here....i lookes on autotrader in my area and all i saw was a 99 auto lgt not really what i;m looking for......but the other half is that i;ll be driving a wrecked car with a salavaged title....so i don't know i just call progressive to see if they where out there yet....and the dude on the phone didn't have a clue....i would just go down to the body shop....but the wife has her car which means i'm stuck at home....so i'm just sitting here stewing till the call me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lawl Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 i would be hoping for a total in this case. LGTs are not easy to find if you're looking. Found mine when I was actually looking for a different car maybe that's the key. it's like reverse psychology... on yourself. . by yourself car for sale. PM me!

Platinum_Racing Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Man, if that damage to the rear of the car was from the impact in the front then you're unibody probably tweaked something terrible. I hope they get the car back to you quickly, but it will probably never be totally the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TYNY Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 glad you 2 are OK, i'm hoping totalled for you. what kinda caddy? couldn't be an escalade otherwise i think it would've been worse. make sure they use real subaru parts and not some ebay crap if they fix it, you have a right to see the parts list when ordered - talk to the body shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum_Racing Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Wow. She didn't hit you once, but twice. That's like a kick when you're already down. Someone told me once that it's not a bad idea to keep a disposable camera in the glovebox, just so you have some evidence if you get into an accident that's not your fault.

legandrex Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 That sucks man...but it is just a car right and that is why we all pay insurance premiums. Seeing the refection of your little one holding your hand is all the really matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
