Ok so insurance totaled my girlfriends car..her loan was 43000. Insurance is giving her 32200 for it will the gap insurance pay the rest or is the gap too big?

 

yup, thtas exactly what they do.

 

I think the gap is too big. Only the providor can give the the "real" answer though.

 

I'm hopin they'll take care of it for her cuz she needs to get a new car asap

 

are you sure you are not talking about your car?

 

what kind of car was it?

 

it was a 06 lexus is 350

 

I think when I bought my gap insurance the sales mgr. said up to $5000.00.

 

well theres no real gap protection with that...

 

i got the gap protection with my new evo. as it was explained to me there was no limit on the gap coverage.

but i would assume, as with most things like that, that it would vary from provider to provider. so have her give them a call.

sorry to hear about her car. i hope she is ok.

 

wow IS 350 thats a hella of a nice car to lose..

 

yeah gap will cover the remainder balance that the insurance left behind.

when I bought my evo the loan officer on the dealer asked me if i would like another insurance aside from the gap that will get me another car(evo) with the same amount in place of my totalled evo.

 

i'm not sure about your insurace company but according to mine their gap coverage will pay for a max of 25% of the original vehicle price. your insurace company shorted you 25.1% of the original price.

 

she totalled a car that expenvie and lived to tell about it

yikes, hope she never drives again actually

 

GAP Insurance should eat the difference. Glad she is ok!
