Sorry to hear about your S . Hopefully everything works out with the insurance company and that the repair will be done right.

Ahhhh man

That really sucks man. Got any parts you want to sell J/K

It is funny to me that all the vultures come out when they here someone wrecked their S

Anyways, I hope everything works out well for you. Remember to get what you want. Don't just give in to the insurance company and let them do crappy work. You have the right to go to who you want to have the work done as long as the price is not too high.

Too bad it didn't happen after this snow. You are missing out on some great drifting We have about three inches here in Redmond so you must have at least six in Bend

Good luck man

Brandon

ouch, I'm sorry to hear that happened. At least we can be thankful that nobody was injured. I hope everything works out well for you.

This snow needs to stop! I took one look out the window this morning and that was all I needed to realize I wouldn't be driving the S today

ah man, I feel for you dude - that really sucks I hope you are able to get her all mended up before too long so you can continue to enjoy her when all this damn snow melts. I am looking forward with joining you and everone on some drives this spring/summer


I have been in this situation before dealing with "shady" insurance company's (not the particular company you are dealing with) If they are unreasonable and do not fix your S to your satifaction in most cases your own insurance company will go to bat for you.

Hope the best for you Sabre,

Kent

Thanks for all the well wishes guys.

I got a call early this morning from the lady's insurance. They are taking full liability with no questions asked. Also thanks to my connections through my job (Ron's Body Shop is a good customer of ours) they are fitting me in first thing Monday morning to get me all fixed up. They even agreed to touch up a few nasty scratches on the car at no extra cost to me at all.

I should have the S back good as ever in a week and a half.

All I have to do is try to stomach the rental car now..

I dont drop the car off until monday so I wont know the rental until then as well.
All the adjuster told me is it would be a "mid-size" so it'll be some big boat of a sedan or something. But then, anything feels like a boat compared to the S.

We shall see..

My money says you end up with a Chevy Impala for the rental.
