They offered 2970 to take the car away...I'm still thinking of selling it though, not sure what to do yet, if it was mtx I'd almost definitely keep it, but...- Dealer

wrecked into, now tranny bad?
Thanks for you guys replies. I had my wife call them (I am afraid of getting angry at them and causing tension for now) and she told them $3000, which he said he looked at how much the cars are worth and the original amount is good. My wife asked if the 2700 is on top of what they already gave...- Dealer

Advanced Auto part discount if buy on line then pick up parts
If you still have a oem starter, take it to a good electric shop and have them rebuild it, it costs about the same but they will put better parts than the ones you buy at the auto parts stores, but if you have a starter from a store, they probably won't even touch it, cause there are so many...- Dealer

just an update if anyone is still following this, they finally decided that this damage was from the accident, not by looking at my car but by talking to my mechanic. They told me they are going to total it out but it will take a couple of days to decide how much.- Dealer

just an update if anyone is still following this, an estimator is coming to look at my car today...in my driveway...he won't be able to see the real damage, but he is from my town(which is a very small town) and he is going to talk to my mechanic also. He sounded really cool on the phone, all...- Dealer

Thanks, thats some good info. I would never make a claim of injury thats false, or anything false, as I wouldn't want anyone to do that to me, I just want to get what I deserve, which is the damage that she caused. The lady turned right at a red light. My wife had a green arrow(protected left)...- Dealer

That sounds like a really good thing to say, thanks. There was a cop that came and refused to file a police report, stating not enough damage. My wife and the lady told the cop what happened, and the cop told the lady it was her fault, but wouldn't issue a citation. I got his name and badge #, I...- Dealer

The insurance company is USAA, never heard of them before but apparently they are pretty big. However, the person who did the estimate does not work for them, she works for a dealership and they have a contract with them. In TX, the estimate comes from the insurance company involved, and thats...- Dealer

Well I went back to the person who did the estimate, she refused to look any further into it. (I tried for a very long time) I called the adjuster and she says they are waiting on pictures of the insured persons car before they can determine liability, and she refused to have somebody redo the...- Dealer

my first sho
Ill try and post some pics up tonight when I get home. The interior is grey, I'm not really crazy about the green either, especially since some of it on the trunk and roof is starting to chip off, so I was thinking of throwing some paint on it. I wish mine was manual but my wife will also be...- Dealer
