Oh, man...yeah.

Now I see why it's totaled. Sorry, man. It really is sad to see how little damage removes a vehicle from operation because of cost.

Wait, is that silver?!

Did you own the clone of my car?

Oh, and this car will very definitely be back on-the-road. Someone will pick it up at auction fro $5K, put $3K of parts, maybe, into it, and there you go.

Now that the SHOCK is gone, I'm on a Hunt to find another one just like it but, I know that won't be easy. I'm from Fort Worth Texas but I live in NC now. Up here, these are hard to come by.

I’m very sorry to read about this. After some time has passed, you’ll be in a better position to decide whether you want another LS460. Lots of people have been in accidents that they were at least partially responsible for, including me. Speaking for myself, it took a long while for the anger (with myself) and guilt to diminish.

To err is human, and I keep getting reminded of my humanity!

ETA: It sounds like you’re on the road to recovery.

I should have said, 900 more than the insurance company gave me for the settlement. So, it would have been just over 5k.
