    You're welcome Daveo0! I really appreciate the spreadsheet offer and know how much time and energy you must have put into it. However that settlement is behind us now. I haven't gone into full detail here in my thread about all the shenanigans the insurance pulled and the hoops they put me...

    YES YES YES! Call your insurance and get to talking. I cant stress this enough. Term like no fault states vs at fault states should be brought up especially if you live in one of the only 12 "no fault" states. This can be the difference of you and your family losing your home and moving in with...

    This is their insurance that was being such a PITA. My insurance so far has been great.

    I believe many churches could fill that blank.....it also makes me think about the "Mattress Ranch".. Has anyone actually seen a mattress bought there? :oops:

    So I picked up an AFM disabler

    I disabled mine with a Flashcal. I was able to adjust my speedo for larger tires as well.

    We had no choice but to get an attorney to fight the insurance Co. for us. The insurance company had lied to us so many times at this point during the property damage portion and was now refusing to give me a copy of the other parties policy. I didn't even know what amount I was fighting for...

    It was impounded and I needed a State Trooper to ****** me to retrieve anything from it. It was also buried in snow by that time, neg 30 and I was taking care of my wife who suffered far more than I did from the crash. I did get them to come up in the settlement price after I claimed I was...

    99% of insurance policies only carry a 25k property damage...AND thats a POTENTIAL payout. They pay what your vehicle was worth 1 second before the crash (according to them not KBB) IF YOUR VEHICLE IS WORTH MORE THAN the 25k total potential payout and you can prove it, its up to YOU cover the...

    Absolutely Sir! If by sharing a quick story on here results in someone rethinking their insurance policy, a final decision to add those grill or marker lights they've been contemplating to be more visible on the road, or get their wife or kids out of that Subaru they drive and into a Truck...

    Thank you State Troopers! So the Tahoe was totaled and impounded due to the involved death. When the insurance company automatically issued a mileage of 200k on it to appraise the value... I got pissed off. The Tahoe had just hit 100k but their appraiser couldn't turn the Tahoe on to get...

    Yes. Our faces never touched the airbags. The seat belts did all the saving in this particular instance. This is not to say that airbags dont have there place in a crash though. The only thing they accomplished in this crash was giving me chemically induced pneumonia.:( That was really fun at my...

    They become members of the family dont they? I raised my kids driving this truck. So many memories.

    It was a smaller sedan. They were stopped in the road facing us with there left turn signal on waiting for us to go by so they could turn onto a side road. I dont know why they turned at the moment they did because they were sitting there when we were a good 400 yrds away. Maybe the sun behind...
