litheraSo, I had the guy from the other insurance company come out and look at my car.
Yes. It is totaled. So. What I understand happens now is that they pay for the car as a total loss and I can buy it back from them for the difference between the value of the car and what it totaled out at. Then they pay me the value of the car. (Or so I understand it.) And then I get the tail light fixed and go get it retitled with the state.
Right now I don't know how much money that might be.
The estimate that I got for repairs was $2500. The blue book value of the car is around $1500. I don't have $1000. Not at all, though the guy doing the estimate said it might be more and it might be less. He'll call me when he knows.
The car runs just fine. This seems really, really stupid to me. I mean... I get into an accident, it isn't my fault and I get my car taken from me and I have to buy it back? In what universe does that make any damned sense?
I'm really frustrated. I hate money. I kind of want to cry right now but.. Well. We'll see what happens, I guess. Maybe if it isn't too much I can manage to do this. I would really like to keep my car. I love my car.
