thats right ....... my 337 is totaled. i feel like throwing up everytime i think about it. i can't believe this happened. so here is the story......
i was going around a left curve on a back road in decatur. traveling at about 60-65 i hit a patch of gravel and got sideways in the road. i pulled it back right and almost had control again until i hit mud on the other side of the road. holding it straight and to the right i guided it back on the road before hiting a culvert. but when the road grabed my tire it slung me into a 180 where i slide 20 ft. sidways into a tree at 40 mph on my door. yes a direct hit on ME. besides a bruised rib and a stiff neck i'm ok. but i'm torn up about the car. i get sick just thinking about it.
this happened sunday, and i got the total back today saying there was 16,500 dollars worth of damage. guys, it didn't even touch the engine. thats how bad it was. you should see the rocker panel(ouch)! so i'm on the market again for the same car. more bad news......i can't get the chip out of the car to sell it because it won't run without it. so i'm out a few hundred from that too. this is horrible. i feel like shit!
I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE IT! i didn't say 10 words the rest of the day.
i'll post pics later this week.
