I take my car in Tues @ 7:30am to the body shop..... I currently have a rental approved for 5 days $23.24 per day plus tax.... I will pay for my own gas. I CAN request approval if the repairs take longer. HOWEVER Shane is pretty sure that by time they tear the car down.... and see more damage that was not on the estimate it will turn into a total loss and I will be FORCED to buy a new car. I currently owe close to what the car is worth.... so, the money that they give me will go to paying off the car and I will have to shop FAST....with Shane previous work experice in the industry... he believes from the time the insurance company cuts your check you have approval for a rental car for 48hrs then your on your own... at least that is how it was before!! I'm hoping that I will know by like Wed or Thur if that is the case so that I can go shopping on Fri-Sun so it does not cut into my exercise program during the following week. I guess I better start thinking about my options on cars in MY price range. I'm bummed cuz I had decided to NOT buy a new car and save money for a down payment...which I DON'T have now... but I don't think I'm gonna have a choice. Oh, well... nothing I can do about it... it is what it is... accidents happen.
