well... guys.. im another RIP SS/SC

well guys few weeks ago i put my ss in the bush missing a deer... went down a pretty big and damaged the ss.. from what i seen it was fixable.. i dono what the scoop is but my insurance company is writing the car off... they said is was over 12 000 worth of damage.. I highly doubted it.. but i can;t do anything about it..

I will post pics.. so now im car shopping, don;t think i will be hopping into another cobalt or any type of 4 cyliner again.. think v8 for next time.

I will post pics once i get it posted, and you can tell me if you think it was worth writing off.. I think just because GM is hurting they wanted to write it off ecxpecting me to go out and purchase another GM vehcile.. grr.

Before




After

That really sucks. Glad nothing happened to you. I see that a lot up north people going into ditches to avoid hitting a deer or a moose.

lol i did not take down the trees... the trees had already fallen, the car rolled over them going down the hill.. all the damaged was caused by rolling down the ditch which was not really faced.. the frame is not even dented on the car...

I agree with you that the car is not totalled.. tell that to my insurance company.. 13 000 worth of damage... they phoned me today and told me it was a complete loss and they are writing it off..

I don't see why the insurance would write that off. Makes no sense. You need a new bumber and some work down underneath on the front. I wouldn't see anything major that would cause the car to be a write-off

Wow, that really dosen't look like 12k worth of damage. I've seen much worse looking wrecks.....like CobaltVenomSS and JRelly's cars......and both of theirs were fixed and are back on the road. Odd.
