Long story short, I have a prescription med that can make you sleep walk...I went sleep driving! The scary part is, my fiancee thought I was perfectly normal and could not tell I was out of it. I got out of bed (I had JUST gone to bed so I guess that is why my fiancee didnt question what I was doing), said I was hungry, drove to Wendy's, and on the way home I must have black out and crazed a tree. My fiancee said that when I got home I just casually said I barely hit a tree and proceeded to eat my Wendy's then go to bed like it was no big deal. Needless to say it was. The scary part is, I remember NOTHING. If she hadnt shown me the Wendy's bag, I would have thought she was full of ****! I take the medicine no more!
Guys, the car is not totaled! I really got to looking at it today; new door and new quarter panel and some paint, like otter said,and I will be good to go.
The night of my accident I put my true hobby up for sale, and yall may not believe it but I sold my three freshwater stingrays for $1500 in 20 minutes. Im kicking my self for doing it now, as they are almost mature and will net me around $5k-10K a year from selling their pups (babies). The only upside is, I will be nearly out of that VERY time consuming hobby and after giving it some real good thought today, Im going to stick with my ralliart for the next 3-5 years. The car is paid for, and Im in a perfect position right now to buy my first home. It would be REALLY stupid for some one my age in my position with the possibility of home ownership to waste their money on a "new" car. I'm taking the car to a shop owned by a family friend who will charge me not much more then cost so I might as well have the whole car re-done to be like new, throw some bolt on goodies for a little bit more excitement and maintain her well until I can afford something really nice and really better AFTER I buy a home.
Now, just where in the hell can I get a good deal on a ralliart passenger quarter panel and rear passenger door?! lol

If you're happy with the RA I say it's worth fixing.
I had front side passenger damage that cost me $7k to fix. I love the RA so it was worth the money spent. Plus if I had sold it and went for another car I would be in debt by so much. My insurance paid for everything (minus the deductable) and now I'm good to go. You would never be able to tell my car was in an accident.
