Thanks for the info!

In my head I hope it's salvaged... and hope it's not salvaged. I want it salvaged because that means, no more payments, easier life through college, and dragging my friends around because i had a sedan. And i also want to keep it because it makes a subaru, a subaru.

 

Actually the way it happened, I didn't even know the damage existed and I had no idea it was showing up on a carfax. When I traded my car in, they didn't do a carfax before giving me full value for the car (I got something like $16k for it on trade) and it was only later that I found out from the dealership that they couldn't resell the car due to the carfax report of frame damage. Had they never told me about it, I never would have known it was there. They weren't too worried about it though - the night they told me about the damage, I happened to be in there with my mother helping her pick out a brand new LGT sedan and I heard later that they got a good value for the car at wholesale auction

 

All's well that ends well I guess.

 

Just got off the phone with the adjuster. Things are going well. All they needed was a brief conversation about what happen at the scene. The car WILL have a lifetime guarentee body from G and S collision. I asked her about the carfax report and bent uni-body and about lower resale value. She told me not to worry about it because I can back it up with the lifetime body work.

Car is not going to be salvaged. "It was a hairpin away from being salvaged", she told me.
Right now the $500 deductible is on my responsibility, until they get word from the truck's (guy who hit me) insurance company. I hope the other guy will pay for my deductible.

 

who is your insurance company?

when I have gotten blasted before, my insurance company covered the deductible until the other insurance company paid up.

you pay your insurance company for a reason, make sure to use them

 

It goes like this..
Eastwood> Arrowhead > Meritplan.

 

you should have just went through the other persons insurance company.

 

YES

 

too bad he hit so many people, it's possable his coverage is maxed out and every one will be paying some out of pocket.

 

I think its per occurrence, so each auto he hit gets covered with his limits.

I believe its the property damage that gets maxed out

 

That could take a while. A good insurance company fronts you the money and goes after the other company for repayment.

 

Allstate didn't hand over my deductible with the initial claim... but I didn't care. I trusted dealing with them more than Nationwide, the other person's insurance in my last acident, and they owe me a deductible anyway since the whole thing is settled.

Speaking of, I still haven't seen that check... :rotfl: Need to make a phone call tomorrow...

 

Better than never.
