Pics?

[Grandpa]

Man Nick, I'm so sorry. The pic looked horrible. Hopefully they total it out and cover it all so you can get a new one. I hope you're feeling better today.

[46Tbird]

Sorry about your ride.

It's a lot to ask, but maybe you could add one or two sentences letting people know what happened, whether or not you are okay, if you had any passengers and their condition, etc. A vague "RIP car" thread leaves a lot of questions.

A old man turned in front of him in a the middle lane and nailed him. He was riding alone and his head/arm hurts.

The front right is crushed to the firewall with the wheel almost touching it from the K member being pushed in so far. It should be an easy total, but these cars are expensive so there is no telling depending on who the insurance company is.

He didn't mean the post to be vague, he's just really bummed out. He really loved that car. It's a tight group here and most people already heard the story through texting right after the wreck happen. I'm sure he'll post some pics up soon when he's feeling better.

[Midnight11]

Yea my bad I was just super pissed and have said the story a million times. Greg was actually in the passenger seat bc we had just finished fixing my brakes and installing my suspension. He is okay just a little sore thank god. Give me a sec and I'll post all the pics I got.

[Midnight11]

old man decided to turn left from a non turn, no signal and not at light. just went and did it right when i drove by him. nailed me every airbag went off and i went up a curb on a sidewalk in between a truck and a tree. im good just sore. it just fucking sucks i loved that car and i had just finished installing my suspension earlier that day...

Aw shit man. I'm sorry about that. Get some rest, take a few painkillers, and let insurance sort it all out. Sucks.

[virtu]

Damn!! Major bummer but glad to hear you are OK.

[Quake5.0]

Damn it that freaking sucks! I love mine like it's a part of the family. Glad your ok though!

[Quake5.0]

2013 Gt500!?

[Midnight11]

Yea can't afford that shooting for a boss

[Grandpa]

Yea can't afford that shooting for a boss

Nice!

[Phuck Phace]

old man decided to...

"I'll hit an old man in public"

[Midnight11]

:( :(

[shadow11]

That sucks nick but glad your ok!

[downtime!]

Cars can be replaced, glad you're ok. Still sucks though, hopefully insurance does what it supposed to.

[Doug1227]

I can't imagine they'd total that....did they??? When's the parts stripping party?? LOL

[Grandpa]

I can't imagine they'd total that....did they??? When's the parts stripping party?? LOL

He already tried, they won't let him near the car to take any parts off of it. They wouldn't even let him take the oil seperator off of it. lol.

[Doug1227]

Did they total it?

[Midnight11]

they are dragging their ass. should find out tomorrow

[03MachMe]

sucks to hear man looked like a very nice ride and had lots of time and love into. Maybe you will be able to upgrade out of the whole thing

[Grandpa]

Im guessing they are going to fix it. Its taking too long which makes me think they getting bids to fix it.

[Midnight11]

Idk they told me it would be 2-4 days before anyone saw it bc they just go on their routes or whatever and look it up even the rep didn't know when they would see it

[Midnight11]

im fucking fed up with state farm

[Grandpa]

What's up now?

[Midnight11]

i just called again today. besides the fact the lady had no idea about shit. said they evaluated it and it sent it to the total loss team so they can have the final say. said it takes 3-5 business days for that. wtf

[Grandpa]

Ridiculous.

[Midnight11]

they have had the car since tuesday of last week. only time they have called me was monday. every other time ive called them...

[Grandpa]

Is there just one person in charge of your claim you can talk to about it, or they bouncing you to a bunch of different people?

[Midnight11]

new person every time...

[DirtyD]

Speak with a manager and tell them you need them to get their shit together. Find out who the actual agent is, storm into his office, and let the "fit hit the shan".

The fact they are taking almost a week just to assess the car is retarded, unless they are using a legally blind estimator...

[shadow11]

Let them take there time and just drive the crap out of the rental :). I worked at a body shop and totaling a car is a long process.

[Midnight11]

Driving the crap out of the rental is impossible it's too slow

[Phuck Phace]

Driving the crap out of the rental is impossible it's too slow

It has a handbrake doesn't it?

[Grandpa]

Driving the crap out of the rental is impossible it's too slow

Plus you didn't spend your money to drive a rental. If you missed an insurance payment in a timely manner, they would be bitching. It goes both ways.

[virtu]

I should have mentioned the two times I have had to deal with State Farm has been like pulling teeth. They will take care of you but you really got to fight for it. It sucks but it will be worth it in the end.

Let me dig thru some old emails/documents and see if I can find some State Farm names/numbers that you can call to help get the process going a little faster.

I know your feeling but,
It hasn't been a complete work week yet.

Total losses take time, not to mention state farm is still handling a large amount of comprehensive claims as well with the recent storms we've seen across the metroplex lately.

relax and be thankful you didn't suffer major injury's in that accident.

[Midnight11]

i understand. its just frustrating bc i have found good deals on cars and they are selling bc im left in limbo

My total loss was handled in 3 business days, and my accident was on a Friday night. Had a check in the mail the following Thursday, with all paperwork being completed the day before (Wednesday).

I just don't get what's taking them so long to handle all this...

Was involved in a 4 car accident on 183 and Norwood across from LD Bell high school in 2008 in my 08 mazdaspeed 3(total loss). It took a month and a half before i had a check and everything was resolved. Sometimes other insurance companies drag their feet and it delays your own situation.

Im currently working with insurance to fix a hit and run that happened in the parking lot a week ago at papa's in Watauga. Will probably drive a rental for a few weeks while they fix it.

[Midnight11]

Still nothing...

[Midnight11]

Getting really pissed...

[Grandpa]

I don't blame you a bit.

[Midnight11]

:Frustrated:

[shadow11]

No update?

[Midnight11]

its in state farms hand thats all i know...

[Midnight11]

now the lady isnt answering. goes straight to her voicemail. thinking about lawyering up...

[Grandpa]

I had a feeling..

[DirtyD]

I say go for it dude. Call the main State Farm office and tell them your attorney will be contacting them soon for [insert charge here].

This bullshit has drug on for 3 weeks now. Not only are you out a vehicle, but you are still making payments, which is money that you expect to have included in the final vehicle check. Will your bank not hold payments until this is sorted out?

[Midnight11]

What's the main state farm office number

[DirtyD]

One listed on their contact us page

1 (877) 485 6943

[Midnight11]

Thanks I'll call them tomorrow. This sucks having to deal
With this...

[DirtyD]

let me know if you want to grab a beer and watch the game to drown your sorrow.

[Midnight11]

Just called the lady and it went straight to vm saying she was out of the office for the rest of the week... Fuck this shit...

[Grandpa]

Time to elevate it to manager.

[DirtyD]

Time to elevate it to manager.

One owner.. 400 miles.. makes me think there was a problem with the car is all, only to be undisclosed to you in purchasing.

I loved my 11 6M car, then i drove a tuned auto. Would never go back.

How Midnight feels right about now with a check on its way....
