So my car may be totaled after the accident that I got in today.
It was kinda my fault, I was coming down Olive, just past I-170, the car in front of me started to go, so I started to go, and then everyone just stopped and I hit the brakes, but slid on all the dust/sand crap on the pavement.
The car in front was a '07 durango with a big ass trailer hitch that tore up my radiator, core support, headlight, and hood. Since the core support has to be replaced and that requires welding, the insurance will most likely total out the car. If they total it, I'll be buying it back cuz I have lots of good parts on it, especially the B16A swap that I just put in a few months ago. I'll either rebuild or part out. I will most likely be looking for a chap DD for 1000$ or less to drive while I either rebuild or part out the car. I just bought a condo, so I don't have $$$ to keep investing in my hatch...
If you have any comments/suggestions, let me know.
I'll update the thread when I know if the car is totaled or what not.

sucks to hear about your car, hit up tom (trock) if you need some welding and talk to chris (dabeastwthn) about a cheap daily.

Did they have the ball in the hitch? If so that's illegal & you can fuck them.

I don't know, could you keep them for me anyway, cuz I will want them if I buy the car back and rebuild.
