sorry to hear and hope your car makes a full recovery

however when drifting or avoiding it's better to gas it and pull yourself otherwise you end up spinning out like you did

ya know...that gas thing crossed my mind, but the axle broke on the rear left side. It got kinda pulled apart from the center. so that wouldn't have worked. but then again....i don't know how the braking thing worked either.

i just got a call, and they decided to jack up the price to 2200 because there was more wrong than they had thought. oh yeah. Now they say the front end is 2900 ALONE. what kinda of crap is that? it's JUST the bumper. "well...the fender got scraped" whatever. i saw the fender. it's fine. i'm gonna storm over to that dealership and see how they try and justify all of that.

That's why you take pictures of the whole car. Every piece. Anything you can take pictures of. They MAKE money from the insurance company so expect there to be more than you think.
