You had a wreck in the rental before your totaled from wreck car got settled on.

You might be safer having that red headed felon drive you around.

I had a guy t-bone back into my BMW in a parking lot. I honked and honked and yelled as loud as I could be he just kept coming. When I asked if he heard me honking and yelling he said yes, but he thought it was for someone else. He was the ONLY car moving in the entire parking lot! He was in a borrowed car, his 4th wreck in two weeks. I told him to stop driving! Call a friend, take a taxi, or ride the bus, anything but drive himself. I even told him if he would just park the car he was in I would take him where he needed to go just to keep him off the roads. He thought I was trying to be funny.

What really sucks is that im not a bad driver. The rental was parked when it got hit. My Mercedes is totaled because my mechanic farked up big time.

The lady who hit the rental has usaa and they are on top of it, dealing with enterprise already.

My car is finally at the shop. They didn't have time to check it out today, but did a cursory lookover and suspect it needs at least a new front differential and cvs....potentially a new transmission. On the inside, a new crash sensor and 4 new belts on the low end with the potential for all of the ars sensors needing replacement. Also not sire what other damage the prop shaft did on the under side.....
should know whether they're gonna fix or total tomorrow. If they fix, im pretty sure in gonna sell it......

That may be true but for comedic value and the way we are on this thread.
Stay the F away from anything I own that has wheels and that includes my push mower

Getting an insured driver to hit your rental is not bad luck, just a pain. Just get a new rental and go. My 914 got hit on every corner and had over 500 bucks of damage each time in the 25 years I had it. One time was just 24 hours after getting the other fender fixed. Each hit happened in different parts of town. I never ever got a note of any sort. Not even the one the says Everyone thinks I'm am writing my contact information but screw you.

You should go to her, she may have to wait 5-10 years before she can do "it" as a free woman. She may just dehydrate you through your winkie
