well this time it happened to the FX. my dad was taking my kid to the little gym class and parked in the pathmark in jersey city on grand street. damn hoodrats tried to pry the frame around the window and then just smashed it to grab the GPS. so now i'm out the GPS since it's not covered under insurance, and i have to pay the deductible to repair all the damage. so yeah, it's official again; you just can't own anything nice anymore.
the one odd thing was, they also swiped my insurance and registration. no clue what that was about.

Your insurance won't cover the GPS? Is it stock or an aftermarket unit?

Sucks, but you always have to remove things like that from plain view. The hassle of taking it down and putting it back up again when you need it is better than leaving it in the window. Its going to attract attention of the wrong kind. I usually take down my hardwired radar detector when I'm in a area where I don't feel uncomfortable for that very reason.
You are right though, you can't have anything nice anymore without some smuck trying to get his hands on it or destroying it. Sorry to hear insurance won't pick it up, maybe your home owners will though.
Good luck man.

yeah you're right, i've actually decided against getting another one for that very reason. but still, i mean what's the most this loser can get for it? 150-200? no to mention the big @$$ infiniti splash screen. i'm not gonna bother w/ homeowners since that's just another deductible that probably won't cover it.Originally Posted by RXM

Are you kidding, the most a pawn shop will give on that is 30-40 bucks. It's just unbelievable what they get away with. Originally Posted by tkman00

That really sucks! I am sorry to hear about that. Luckily I have had no problems with my FX here so far.
On another note, this is why I HATE geico...some chick hit me last year while I was in my G Coupe and she had geico. They told me that the reason their insurance is so cheap is because they won't fix cars with NEW parts, only USED. I was pissed since my G was less than a month old. I didn't even have license plates yet. After fighting and threatening them they finally paid for new, but only because I told them I would just go through my own insurance and they could reimburse them, either way they were going to pay for the new.
Where is the Pathmark on Grand? By the McDonalds and Sunoco near Libery State Park?
I hope you can

First, is it okay for a girl to refer to another girl as "chick"? Originally Posted by G35Girlie

Secondly, did you also claim for depreciation of your vehicle due to the collision? If you fight hard enough...they pay.

Why do you leave the GPS for all to see? You need to start hiding it.
