    Ouch! Now I know I wanna cry. I think I'll go out and shine mine up a little and give her a few love taps. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the numbers come in LOW, but somehow, I'm not feeling optimistic. :cryp: Let us know!

    At least your alive & well enough to tell us of this missadventure. You cannot be replaced, but in the cace of your VX, if the #'S are too high,or if its a total loss,just keep in mind that you can get another one now...But for the near future who knows . I hope the insurance adjuster is in a good mood today. Most important is that your ok! Bruce

    Hello Gary,

    It's been a long time....and now I have to hear that. I feel sorry for you but at least you are OK and the beloved VX can be fixed.
    Look at the bright side and cheer up!

    I hope you and your VX will be enjoying the ride soon again.

    Take care and give me a call I you have some time. I am still down in Gaithersburg, MD.

    Sheeesh, and to make matters worse, I gave the Jeep back to my friends and my insurance hooked me up with a rental from Enetrprise.

    FORD ESCORT!

    I tell ya, this is a nightmare I can't wake up from! At least in the last accident I got a really nice Nissan Altima.

    Thanks for all the kind words. They really cheer me up and let me know that there is definately a brighter side to all bad luck. Seeing her get towed away to the shop was like watching your child leave for boot camp, heh.

    Well, my estimate has now reached over $5k, and there is still some to go. The shop owner put in for a new hood and the insuarnce company is now trying to fight him on some of the parts to be replaced. He said he will fight the good fight for me. I am getting ready to take the new tire and wheel to the shop now so they can at least roll it around safely.

    The scary thing.... he said the control arm is completely totalled. That's plenty 'o work to repair. So, we shall see where it goes from here. Not fun.

    Wink WeLcOmE to VX CoNfEsSiOn

    Time to confess my son.....

    Were you indeed paying strict attention to the road or:

    1) were you brushing "fuzzies" off your dash?
    2) were you scoping out the "Lara Croft" looking babe in the SUV heading the opposite direction??
    3) were you day-dreaming about what mod your going to pursue next???
    4) were you practicing your auto-crossing technique in order to give Tone a run for his money the next time you cross paths????
    5) were you having a flash-back of that last alien abduction where the "greys" promised you a wax job on your VX in return for the cooperation you gave during the alien anal probe????
    6) were you preparing for the bank heist you had planned and was just doing a dry-run-through to polish up on your getaway driving as the video games weren't real enough for ya????????
    7) were you trying to reenact the stunt scene from the movie "The Italian Job" when you took offense of the "do not try this yourself" disclaimer near the end of the credits????
    Hope this cheers you up!

    If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular?
