Yea, I call BS on his story too. I'm going to drill it into his insurance's adjusters head when they finally get here, and demand they fix my truck in full.... none of that "we're going to total it, and give you nothing" crap.

A 19 year old male.... I just don't understand why he didn't just fess up to blowin' the stop sign. Let's me know what kind of man he'll grow up to be though.

Damn that sucks, you had a nice clean 2dr too hopefully they don't total it

Got my truck back from the towing place that picked it up from the scene of the accident. $360...what a ripoff.
I had time to inspect the damage, and this kid definitely hit me in the front corner... I wasn't sure at first 'cause his car was so damn low compared to mine, and I didn't get to see the truck in person till today.
I'm going to push the crap outta' his insurance company to fix my truck back to original... I just refuse to let them total it as this isn't just a stock '99'er.
Still waiting to hear from his ins. co.'s adjuster.

Thanx man.... and vice-versa.
I don't think insurance companies should be able to go by KBB alone on trucks like ours. They're def. not stockers. They should be required to take into account the full value w/all the work done included.
At the very least, just fix the truck back to it's exact condition prior to any accident damage.

KBB is crap for specialty/ unique vehicles. . . . wait long enough and watch your 2D become a classic car everyone wishes that had.

Sorry to hear about your Tahoe, it sure was a gorgeous truck. I'm surprised that such a tin can of a car caused THAT much damage to your Tahoe. Expect to have the insurance company total it out. Like BowTieFreak pointed out, KBB won't value your truck very high and they will more than likely total it. Its up to you to see if you want to buy it back afterward and wrench on a salvage title.

Well after inspecting the truck when I got it back @ my house today, I confirmed what I initially thought that this kid actually hit me when he blew the stop sign. I'll be contacting my attorney today, and sure as shit is brown.... I'm going after them to have my truck repaired back to the way it was.
Unfortunately I had basic coverage, but this kid is under his parents policy, and being he's only 19....I'm sure they had him fully covered.
I'm not even going to get into my body damage from the accident, but I gotta start going to a doctor, and see if I can get some MRI's to see why I can't fully move right.
