Well life has a way of kicking you while your down, my wife and son were rear ended my a drunk driver in a G Wagon🤬🤬. They are ok which is all I care about. Lady fled the scene but luckily was apprehended by Maryland State Police. Car is already at my shop so we will see what her insurance wants to do. She really loves this car but might be a good time for an upgrade 🤷‍♂️

Ugh...I hope you can get some decent $$ for a replacement. One of my employees had a 12 year old Corolla that she loved...idiot drunk driver hit her car so hard (fortunately just parked overnight, no one in her car), on a 25 mph street no less, that it flipped both cars over. Insurance gave her $1800.00....cost her $18k to get a used Corolla to replace it...:mad:

First and foremost thought, glad that your family is safe! Secondly, glad that they got her!

@CrabCake inspired me to install some safety switches for the winches. I think this spot is where the headlight washer reservoir was; I bent up a new

That's the real shame of the system. It's not just the value you're out in the vehicle itself, but in your cost to replace it with something similar.

Accidents happen, but drunk driving was their choice and they should compensate you fully for their actions at that point.

Totally agree....unfortunately most people find this loophole out when their car sits there smashed through no fault of their own.

Worse than that...this family attends the same church as a couple of my employees....there is no replacement for a life, especially of children. :frown:

 
Parting this out! Hit me up if you need something. CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP!

Replaced the EVAP seal yesterday. Took twice as long as it should have but with the very tight clearances I had to take my time or else I'd break something. A fair amount of dirt had made its way into the EVAP core housing, which is why I had the little vacuum. Cleaned it up as best as I could. No more water coming into the passenger footwell!

Next I need to diag why the AC isn't blowing as cold as it was a few weeks ago...

I have a Diode Dynamics Rear Light Bar out that I am dropping off for warranty and plan to add to 12-inch light bars to the grill. Hopefully, Ed is working with me to add my Yaesu FTM500 Ham Radio and Weboost this month to my rig. In September, shipping my 4R back to Texas to plate, do a XREAS delete, and add Skids and Sliders
