5 pix to load....please wait...
Had what I previously described as a "teensy-weensy" accident. Hit a culvert on a right hand corner I thought was sharper than it was (Hey..that culvert was deteriorating into the road! It was! Crumbled asphalt about 1' into the road.) The angle popped my drivers side tire out of the rim and broke the tie rod off..which sent me into the little green on the other side of the road...JUST barely going between two trees. The passengers side swiped one of the trees and barely took off the bark and dented in my fender. Got a dent in the hood too (somehow!??maybe a tree branch?))
So...not too bad I thought. Dented fender, tie rod, hood dent, and a wheel to replace...Why bother calling the insurance company? My rate will just go up, right? And it'd be cheaper just to fix it myself in the long -run. Well a day later I had second thoughts and was like, hey for my $500 deductible I could get them to buy me some sweet new sculpted body parts. So I called them , blah blah..like 3 weeks later when they were finally done investigating it they tell me.....its TOTALED!! WHAT!?? cry cry cry..seriously people, I am the saddest girl ever! I LOVED that car! It was a little tiny hole in my firewall..... Would never have suspected..
What sucks even more is that because it was a salvage title to begin with I'm only getting trade in value..(which puts me only about $200 more than where I was when I bought it.)
Well I'll always have the memories... That beautiful car gave me a love for Accords and for that I will always be grateful...May her soul rest in peace and her pieces rest being sold to accord lovers.. Heres some pics..
