That's messed up. Glad no one was hurt. I would imagine that the insurance will take care of you. Have fun and good luck shopping for a new car. Gotta look at the bright side of things.

If you still have your old wheels/tires maybe they can 'happen' to find themselves back on the car. So you can use/sell the news ones. Just saying.

You know what I meant. But I'm not arguing with your comment. I absolutely agree with it, in fact I know people who drive better drunk that old people do.

happened to me in Hattiesburg, MS a few years back. A little old lady plowed into my rental car parked at a red light. My neck was jacked up for a couple of weeks. Her insurance co paid me $500.00 for it, yes only $500. told me to sue them, I live in TX, just the flights alone to/from MS was more than that, and the lawyers I called there didn't want any part of it.
