I just joined from the "Other Site". Now I'm saying Goodbye to my Envoy of eight years.
While working in Roanoke I was hit on the ring road of a Mall. She told the police "I was on the phone and wasn't paying attention". Who in their right mind would tell police that?

She wasn't going fast even going fast enough to make he Air bags deploy. My truck was towed to a State Farm (her Insurance) repair shop. State Farm gave me a rental to get home and use until my truck was fixed.

Two weeks later I drove to Roanoke to get it. Drove it 275 miles back to Virginia Beach. It drove great. Repair cost was almost $6k

I noticed some issues with the alignment of the bumper and fender. So I called State Farm. I took it to a Collision Center here in Chesapeake. I'll make a long and sad story short. Bottom line is the frame is bent and "Can't" be straightened. The frame would need to be replaced. The truck is a total loss and can be sold for parts only. I will get almost $12,000 and most of my after market parts thou. I will have a few parts to sell. I had a Borla catback I wish I could pull but I don't have the oem exhaust to put back on or the time to find one.
ps. I'm still driving the truck until I settle with State Farm
