I've never been in this sort of situation before. I've been in accidents before. I've had my car damaged before. So I've got pretty great insurance because my car is important to me, and because when I'm broke having to come up with $500 or $250 could be really difficult, so after the dirt-clod incident, my deductible is $100.

Thank you for the commiserations. It's been a long, frustrating weekend. Eventually, I'll tell the story of How Wells Fargo Fucked Up.

For now, I've got a rental, and I'm waiting (semi-sorta-) patiently to see what happens before I think about buying a new car. I don't want a pre-owned vehicle, and I don't want a used car, and I can't *really* afford a nice new one right now. (I've been saving up, and had planned to get a nice new car in a couple years, not Right Now, dammit.)

Ick. When I bought my new one (get a Hybrid if you can!:) I opted to get the "Pay an extra $500 and if it's ever stolen, we'll pay it off" because my car had just been stolen. Naturally, my new one hasn't been touched. (Though now that it's fully paid off as of March....;)

*HUGS* Lady, if there is anything I can do to help, please let me know, OK?

I know how hard things can get when your car is taken.

Just let me know if there is something I can do!
