My Poor car
Sunday night I decided to park outside of my gate that leads to my driveway. I do this all the time and no problems. Well, Monday around 6am, some guy going to work, fell asleep and hit my car. This car has taken a beating!

Re: My Poor car
Wow sorry to hear. That is horrible.
Was sleep the only contributing factor or was there more involved?

What year and model. Might be totaled. It looks like it may need a new trunk floor.

Probably not totaled, even though if your anything like me a rebuilt car never acts the same as the original you will probably wish it was totaled.. sorry this makes for a super crappy start to your weekend...

Re: My Poor car
Thanks everyone. There was no faul play on the guys behalf. He stayed around and called the cops, he left with a tcket. Its an 05 camry with 133,000 on it, as soon as I saw it, i said "new car time!!" Wrong, geico sad 6,000 in damage's and thats 60% of what the car is worth. The adjuster said the damage has to be 75% of what the car is worth. Every site I go to online tells me its worth around 6500, geico said its worth between 10&11,000. I lke the car, but if it drive just a little different, i'm puttinf a forsale sign on it. I'll keep everyone updated.

Have someone from an independent shop give you an estimate...
I realized that a couple of days ago. I did use there recommended shop and 2 days after it was their, I remembered I have a guy in queens, who would have totaled it in a heart beat. I'm supposed to be picking it up sometime next week. I keep checking my claim online and the price hasnt changed yet. I do like the car and have had no problems at all with it, but its time for something else.

Re: My Poor car
If geico is so smart then they should buy the car off of you and fix it and then sell it for 11,000. These insurance companies crack me up. Go to a local car dealer and ask them to look up the auction report on that car. It's worth what the dealer would buy it for at the auction. If Geico would buy all the wrecked car up that they say are worth all this money they could make a profit and your rates should go down. I don't see that happening.

Re: My Poor car
Man, that sucks. At least the guy had the decency to stop and call the police. Some a$$holes just drive on by and leave it to be all your problem. Hopefully it gets fixed up alright.
