Parsnip Totin Jack ★ Posted June 6, 2018 Share #2 Posted June 6, 2018 A lady ran a stop sign and hit his truck. Deployed the airbags but Jsharrt and his offspring were not injured. The truck is likely totaled. He should have bought a Ford truck, they're tougher than bow tie trucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longjohn ★ Posted June 6, 2018 Share #8 Posted June 6, 2018 In Ralphie’s day off thread he posted about loading his stuff in the truck after Checking out of the cabin. This made him sad. I think his truck must have bounced back into shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsharr ★ Posted June 7, 2018 Share #9 Posted June 7, 2018 So, I called Geico on Monday, and they said they would have to do an investigation, as there may be shared liability based on statements from the other driver. I supplied Geico with the police report stating the other driver failed to yield right of way and was cited for such, as well as the state of Texas accident report and photos of the damages to both vehicles. Geico called today to take my recorded statement. In less than one hour they took 100% responsibility. They are having my truck towed to one of their inspection / repair facilities, where I am almost certain it will be found to be too expensive to repair. I owe much less than it is worth, so I should walk away with a decent check to buy a new truck, or maybe buy a clean used truck and save some $$$ every month. I go to Enterprise tonight to pick up the truck that Geico is renting for me. I was told it was probably going to be a Dodge. The truck I was driving to go camping is a Ford owned by a close friend and neighbor. He is from Australia but lives in Texas and runs the US side of a cotton import / export business. He is in China for two weeks and then heading to Australia, so I have been driving his truck, the Yank Tank. It was filty, as his wife uses it to rescue stray doggies that we help foster. Martha is staying at their house with the doggies while they are in Austrailia (pronouced "Straylia" by they way). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kzoo Posted June 7, 2018 Share #11 Posted June 7, 2018 If you can wait until she's done with her Katy Trail adventure, I'm sure Petite will help you find a new truck. New, used, Chevy, Ford, Dodge, red, blue.... you can't make up you mind. She can help. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't be surprised if the check has shrunk by the time you see it. They might take the position that even in your own words the vehicle is a lemon and not worth but a small part of the book price. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
