liar

>> Tuesday, February 24, 2009

I lied in my last post when I said I probably wouldn't post again tonight.

But, take a minute to read the announcement re: Michael's job in my last post if you haven't yet. It's a doozy.

So, the reason I'm writing again is because we got the estimate from the body shop today for our 2008 Honda Element.

Guess how much?

Go on, guess.

JUST OVER $17,200!!!!
Holy crap right?

Yeah, 17 G's!

It has pretty severe frame and suspension damage which is why it's so high.

I'm really hoping at this point that they total the damn thing out. I don't understand how they wouldn't. We paid $19,500 for it I think (don't really remember) and we owe $16,000 on it. I would be shocked if they decided to repair damages worth $17,200!!!!

I should find out tomorrow (Wednesday) what State Farm says. I will keep you posted.
Sweet dreams,

Holy shit! Well I guess you take the good with the bad. Glad to hear (again) about MIike's new job but I am sorry your car has such a massive boo boo. Now get some rest!

Wow! That's a lot! I bet they total it as well, but you never know.

That's insane. I really hope they decide in "your favor", whatever that means.
