I crashed my car

[Stein]

Thank God it's only a PT Cruiser. I'd say you gave it what it deserved.

A sacrifice to the gods of automotive mediocrity.

Yup, my first thought.
Second thought, good luck 3clipse .

im pretty sure everyone crashes their first car. i hit so much shit with my dad's van. good thing i learned to drive in a vehicle that was not my own.

I'm good so far.  I do so much stupid shit though.  Almost hit a guardrail between a split/fork in the freeway.  I was passing some dude in lane 2/4 from the right, when all of a sudden the right two lanes (1/2) forked away and I had to cut off some dude in lane 3 to avoid the wall.
I have since stopped doing stupid shit on the freeway.  Stupid shit reserved for empty back roads filled with schoolchildren at 3PM.




(j/k on that last bit)

I actually like Foci.  Sure, they're crappy-shitty FWD econoboxes, but at least they have their roots in racing.

My wife has an 09 Focus. I tell her she drives a dishwasher.

Yeah I'm sure.  Fucking dick-ass cop from Cumberland gave me a warning (with my family in the car...) for going "61 in a 50" when my mom, who's super insecure about my driving, was watching my speedo the whole time making sure I didn't go above 55, which I didn't).  While we were sitting there, he told us "it'd be ok to pass that car if you had a five-oh mustang, but in a dinky subaru wagon I would think twice"
WTF, slow cars mean I'm not allowed to pass slow-ass drivers? What about when they run a stop sign in front of me and neglect to speed up above 15 in a 50?
GAH

sorry for the rant, still mad about that one, because if I do get pulled over again I think a warning won't even be considered :\.

[HeK]

dinky subaru wagon

Lol.

[3clipse]

Car is totalled.

Atleast we get like $6000 toward a new car.

The thing is I'll be sharing this new car with my dad. Odds are he will want to buy a nice old car, like a old Corvette or something nice.

[Vongore]

Totalled? but from the pic you posted it looks like a slight bump D:

Odds are your ex will probably want to 'become more than just friends' again

Totalled? but from the pic you posted it looks like a slight bump D:

Bumper skin, $150-200. Paint and prep = $800-1000
Radiator, $150-300, plus install
Airbags, easy $2000. More for install as it 'requires' a special installer.
If the AC is damaged that would be another 1000-2000, also requires a special installer.

You are quickly coming up to the $6000 write-off value.


You get the idea.

[Squishy3]

doesn't take much to total a car :/

[rumsfald]

I remember that my toque somehow ended up off of my  head and behind me under my seat. No idea how that happened. 

Torque > Toque.

Yea. Lets hope so...
