That's terrible....I would squeeze 6K outta of the insurance company. 6k will get you something just as nice. Good luck and glad your alright.

What kind of vehicle hit you?

he saves them from other sites and hosts them, thats how strype got the popcorn.




Now to the point, I am soooo soorrry for your loss, I actually got really sad when I saw those pics. Definately squeeze the most out of them you can and buy the car back, pull the engine/tranny rearend(if its not messed up) and everything swapped to a 4 cyl. notch. If anything you could end up with 3-4k left over after buying a 4 cyl. and everything. Again, I am very sorry for your loss.

The airbag came out when it backed across the ditch. The front end drug the ground. It pushed a dent up in the left side bumper cover, not much of a dent, but the plastic mighta popped back out most of the way, it musta pushed it up far enough to hit the airbag sensor. Both the foglights were bent a little bit. I was actually going backwards when the bag come out.

The Beach said, yeah, her last name was actually Beach, that the mailbox was in the way.
Click to expand...


could someone PLEASE TELL ME how a mailbox fully covers about a 15ft car driving at 60mph? that boggles my mind. let me guess, she was driving a soccer mom SUV. damage looks from one end of the car to the other so the vehicle must've been pretty hefty. good to hear you're okay. could've been worse...could have hit u on the driver's side. with the damage done to that pass side, if it hit u on the driver's....

That sucks man, glad you're alright though. ****, what the **** did she run into you with... a dump truck?! The spread of that damage is huge...

Are you sure you're okay? You should still go to the doctor maybe if you feel the slightest bit of pain or soreness that lasts.

Tear off all of your aftermarket stuff too before the innsurance co gets their hands on it. Good luck.

She hit me with a '95 Oldsmobile, and that was from a dead stop. I couldn't belive all the damage either. She had to be standing on it when she plowed into the side. I dunno how the mailbox blocked her view, there used to be a big tree there, they finally cut it down so people could see, but evidently it didn't help her none.
