Well fellahs - I had her all set up nice and someone went and smashed into her while parked outside work on the street last week (thankfully I or the fam weren't in it). I feel like I had a ton of good times to be had - after putting a lot of money and my own sweat equity (although a hell of a lot less then some of y'all) into it... Pretty sure she's going to be totaled based on the age, etc. Only had 90k on the odo and was running like a champ. Going to be hard to find another one like her with short notice now that I have to find a vehicle ASAP (previously looked high and low for one because I was leasing a vehicle and had time to pre-search).

Have a feeling I'll be going a different direction this time around since anything in NNBS land is too pricey for my blood for that high a mileage - so I think my big SUV days are going to be done for a while (even though I got a brand new 'burb that i'm rolling in for the foreseeable future, which makes anything else i'm looking at feel like garbage - thanks insurance rental coverage!). :)

Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks to all the posters and contributions to the website - learned a lot about NBS 'hoes from you guys and I really had fun. Heartbroken that I only had it for less than a year.

Best of luck and for god's sake be careful out there!

It did look great. They must have been moving pretty good to do that damage. Hope it turns out well for you. Good luck with a replacement.

make sure you present any receipts for work that was done to it in the last year to your insurance many things add additional value/credit.

Yeah witnesses say she was travelling at normal speeds on the road and didn't brake prior hitting the back of it. She claimed to not know what happened, so I don't know if she was texting or passed out, or drunk or what. Thankfully she was ok other than some cuts to her face (it was a GMC Envoy XL). She also didn't have a license or insurance. :rolleyes:

That sux! Especially about her not having insurance. Hopefully they'll nail her ass to the wall! Good luck. Maybe find another nbs and use the good parts off of this one.

Always a bummer to see a good looking truck with lots of life left in it totaled.... well hopefully you find something you will like to replace it. Dont give up hope on another NBS! They are or there!
