Re: Got hit by 10 wheeler truck. PICS
Hey Dollar. If I was you, I would have slapped it in gear and slammed it into one of those trees on the left a few times to make sure it is totalled so they can buy you a new one for fear that it will never drive the same again. That happened to my friend's CL Type S and it just never was the same after the accident.

Oh man look at that. I'm soo sorry man. Look at the bright side, you got the right taillight! That looks totaled, time for a new G! Maybe black? No Blue? The choice is yours. Maybe you can get a stick or the nav if you didn't have it already.
I got rearended by a Ford Explorer pretty hard. He was doing about 20 and I was stopped. That had to have been a real hard hit if he smashed your bumper in like that. My bumper didn't even dent, just had 2 holes in it that he paid to get fixed.

Hey, there is a guy that lives in Tampa, FL that post under the name ThoughtZ on my 350Z.com who is looking for a new VQ35DE engine. Maybe there is a way for you to combine the check from the trucks insurance company and the money that you'd make from selling parts off of your G and come out way ahead.
This was just a thought. I never said it was a good one...

When my Honda got totalled about 8 years ago, we got money (lower price) from the ins. company but kept it, and then sold it to the body shop who wanted to fix it. Came out with more than if we just took the money for the car and the ins. company took it away.

LOL! Yeah, this was a while ago. Dollar has since gotten his car fixed and has been running quite nicely. I believe the chronology of events was, he got hit, go it fixed, got the Vortech SC put in, slammed into a snow bank (no damage), and has been fine ever since.[img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Got hit by 10 wheeler truck. PICS
There is no need to demand your deductible paid. Due to subrogation laws your insurance company will pay you and then charge that against the trucks insurance under their liability coverage. Since it is a commercial vehicle it has at least 1 million in liability so i think that will be sufficient. Reguarding the person that said tell them you have headaches but if you settle it your way you'll forget about it, there are rights you can't sign away unless specifically identified in a loss settlement statement.

Sorry to hear the sad news... I'd take the trucking company to court, see if you can total or sell your car to a salvage company. You can take the estimated repair cost and take a check for it and then sell the car to a salvage company to make up the difference for the actual worth of the car, or to help you pay off the outstanding loan. Talk to your insurance agent about your options.
After that, get yourself a 2005 G coupe with 295HP and 19" wheels! This time forget that gay plastic trim on your door (forgot what that is called) and get that new Twilight Blue color!
good luck!

Re: Got hit by 10 wheeler truck. PICS
being THI certified (traffic homicide investigator), it doesn't appear that the truck that hit you was goin 55+mph...if it was, your rear bumper would probably be somewhere near the vacinity of your forehead....
Were you transported on scene to the hospital? If not, your chances of a sucessful lawsuit are far and few, but you can probably walk away with around $10,000 cash.....
