Insurance is totaling my truck.

[OlMech]

Was making a left hand turn in a no passing zone in my 80 4x4... guy passed three cars and hit me.. smashed the front end of my truck...
Insurance only wanted to give me 800 bucks and total the truck... by remaining calm, I managed to keep my truck, and get 1500 for the damages.. it took about five months.. I repaired the truck myself.. (didnt bend the frame) at a cost of around 1000 dollars...

In 1988 I had a new 88 stepside that also got hit... custom rims, hitch, sterio etc etc etc in that truck... insurance called and wanted to know if they could get the truck out of the local storage yard to save on storage expences... I said sure... "sure" cost me all of the stuff I had put in the truck, the rims sterio ALL of it!!!!!!!!!!!! i payed for three more years on that truck AFTER the case was settled... NEVER give them the truck!!!! Have it towed to your house!
