and what exactly did they value it at? how many miles did u have on it?

 

No words from the insurance yet about that but I think its going to be based off KBB.

 

That thing is beat up...glad you're ok bro! '10 X next?

 

Bro, im glad ur ok...18 wheelers scary man..sometimes the way they behave on the freeway are just unacceptable..but im glad ur ok..

Good thing not much mods under the hood yet.

Have a safe one bro..

 

damn! did the air bags go off? did you have gap insurance??

 

just curious, is there any type of charge that can be brought against the person who's bumper fell off? i'd be real pissed if my evo was wrecked becuz i was dodging flying projectile rusted car parts on a highway

 

I know man. Makes me sad everytime I see the pics. Not sure whats next yet but I was thinking of getting another one.

Thanks man!

Yeah, curtain bags went off, the steering wheel, and also there was one by the pedals which I was surprised with. Fortunately, yes, I have gap insurance.
I'm not sure if there is but the guy who had the bumper didn't even bother stopping. The insurance is saying its my fault for "unable to control the vehicle."

 

if there was a liscense plate on the bumper of the other car, then you would have a claim to their insurance. as for the KBB, I was going to refi mine last month and its listed at 27k KBB just for a ballpark figure.

Just a question though, what part of the semi did you hit. Was it head on, same direction, stopped, what speeds, etc etc.

I'm only wondering b/c the cabin of your X looks like it too the accident like a CHAMP and would have protected everyone in the car really well.

 

I was actually on the middle lane of the freeway going about 65-70mph. Then when the bumper came off the car in front of me, I swerved hard to the left and the car started to lose grip which surprised me. The car made a turn around and caught grip going straight to the first lane were all the semis are. I hit the wheel of the trailer which pretty much shredded the entire front of the car.

 

man that sucks im sorry about that...just seeing that makes me cry...make sure you get those rims back before they total it out maybe you can get a few extra dollars for them if they weren't damaged.

 

holy shhhh!!!!ttt... sorry to hear about your accident... Hope your ok and hope everything works out with the insurance...

 

Glad to hear you're ok, and sorry about the car. Hopefully you'll keep it in the family and get another Evo. Good luck with sorting insurance and everything out.

 

ill take the dash if you decide to take some parts off of it. PM me if you want to go through the troubles

 

I'd love to help out a fellow evo owner but my insurance wont let me take off anything oem. Only aftermarket parts.

 

Very sorry for you! I hope you will start again with another Evo...Glad you are okay! Don't forget to strip the car of your aftermarket parts! Or, show the receipts of those parts to the insurance company...Best of luck!
