the insurance agency is doing an investigation as well so well see.


does any one know what you typically get when a car like this gets totalled?

i paid 4500 for it, and i think ill get at least that. i think.



depending on how much i get for the car i will definitly be looking for another bonneville. driving in other cars just doesnt feel the same to me. and i cant help but think what would of happened if i was driving my moms sonata...Sad

I would imagine you'd get close to the blue book, but I may be wrong.

Glad to hear you all are alive, thats the important thing. These little things are nothing compared to the lawsuits your going to be getting.

This is one of the reasons I'm not driving a Honda right now
Dude, someone up there was looking after you and your friends. I hope you all recover well. The long term damages of a car accident can sometimes be worse than the short term, so I hope that doesn't happen to you. Maybe this will make your mother buy a GM

haha thats the first thing she said.. my insurance company is leaning towards this not being my fault, it just appears that it is from the wreckage, not the actual facts. well see, thanks for all your concerns. im definitly getting a bonneville again. depending on how much i get i was looking at this

as for updates on my friends, we all hung out today and none of them hate me which is pretty cool but more importantly they are all doing great.
