This is Link.  Just got him last month.    http://usera.imagecave.com/RolindaBonz/Lincoln.bmp.jpg He's a 2004 Lincoln Town Car.  mmmmmmluxury...quite a step up from the Hyundai Accent I've been driving for the last 7 years (7 looong years)  http://usera.imagecave.com/RolindaBonz/woot.gif http://usera.imagecave.com/RolindaBonz/v8.jpg

7 yrs later (!!!) i got rear-ended on the freeway!

 

AND pushed into the car in front of me

who got pushed into the car in front of THEM!

 

what a suck!

 

the guy-who-hit-me's ins co (state farm) declared it a "total loss"

 

initially, i was p.o.'d but wasn't too worried.

it looked like minor damage on both ends, so they gave me a rental

and we sent it to the body shop.

 

they estimated $5600 at first, but after they peeled it back,

they discovered the trunk was buckled up.

they won't be able to hang the rear, quarter panel unless they straighten out the floor of the trunk.

 

this discovery (lol - np Discovery) pushes the cost of repair higher than their perceived value of my car

 

i had planned on driving that car another 5 yrs

it was paid off in '08

 

so now its time for a new car (payment)

 

state farm gives me $9300, but i cant get another lincoln for that

im gonna hafta suck it up and saddle up for another 3 yr ride

 

THEN then tell me, i have 3 days to turn in "The Rental"

which really pisses me off,,,for obvious reasons you'll understand

 

so i'm off to the Lincoln dealer$hip in the morning

with the forecast of gas prices (!!!@#$##%!!!)

i'm having second thoughts

 

then again, Linc served me strong...i never even felt sore from the impact.

i HAVE to get another one

 

wish me luck?

Silver 2004 VW Jetta Wagon. We got it Nov. 15th 2009 after our 1994 VW Golf Hatchback that was totalled (got hit head-on; not our fault). It holds a lot more stuff and is an automatic. I do kind of miss the stick shift but this is better for my arthritis.

And Rolinda, sorry to hear about your car, but glad you're okay. Hope you found something you like that isn't a horrible payment.

Figured I'd put the pictures in this thread...2003 Outback. I don't care what kind of image it puts across, it's an amazing car. I don't have any GREAT pictures of it, though I'll probably take some next time I'm home (amazing scenery there)
