Default Luck just isn't on my side...



My S2000 ate a muffler pipe sitting in the middle of the freeway at 9:30pm...now she's throwing up coolant and at the car hospital (claims center). Awesome. It's been such a stupid week for me, now this gets piled on top of it.

That sucks. If there's ever anything huge on the highway I'll call it in...

SGI found $3,200 damage from the initial estimate, I'm not sure if that's factoring in a bent Rad support or not, the current plan is to fix her. The damage doesn't look anywhere near as bad as it did the night it happened.




Got towed to my work today, they plan to start ordering parts on Monday from Meidl Honda in Saskatoon since... apparently they don't get along with Regina Honda lol.

Car should be back on the road come Monday. Still waiting on an under cover from Meidl Honda though, apparently it's back ordered until mid April, which isn't so bad, at least it's not a vital piece. Will be wiring up the fog lights Monday or Tuesday evening, and then putting the car away at the end of the month for a little work/financial stability.

Mean time...I got really bored...and I did this with the little toy my girlfriend got me to cheer me up.

My thanks goes out to the Taylor Toyota body shop for minimizing the down time (12 days!!)
