So yesterday was the big battle.

I get to the rental car place, and the woman from the girl's insurance calls me. We get talking and she says the car is most likely a total loss. As this is going on, this 6ft greasy overweight hunchback lookin dude is tryin to charge me a $50 hold in case i dont bring the car back. I didnt have enough in my account at the time, so my gf put it on her card. I went outside, and then the fight ensued. I explained my whole situation to the woman. How I owe 15,000 on the loan, yet its not connected to the car, how this could screw up the next few years of my life financially, every angle i could find. Yet all she said was well i sympathize with you. We have guidelines to follow bla bla. So i said ok they're guidelines, not rules. they're there to guide you along. So then she said well yea they are rules. All this going on at the rental car. So she said to me maybe i'd have better luck with my insurance company. So i told her fine, and that she'd be hearing from them and my lawyer. So i leavce with the rental car, and get to the insurance place. I start talkin to the kid, and explain whats going on with the car. All of this , during which the whole day my back had been hurting more. So the kid replies with how the lawyer wont be albe to do anything about the car. In the state of arizona bla bla you're sol kid. So im texting my mom to call the one shop who said they'd make sure the car wouldnt be totaled. I tell the kid im not ready to sign anything until i talk to her, because she's been through all this before and i havent. So i get outside and call her, and she says that the insurance company had called her, and was talking to her now saying that the car is repairable. So after me shouting "It lives!!", I tell her to ahve the woman call me back. So the woman calls me back saying she checked the value on my car, and that after the estimate they did, that right now they're at a 48% of the car's value in repairs. She said that the highest they go is 70% of the car's value, then they total the car after that. So she went in saying that the car could still be totaled if they get in there and need to do more repairs bla bla bla. So I apologize for my actions earlier, and she understood. She must have told me the car could still be totaled, about 20 effing times. Just out of no where going back into it. My mom told me the same thing. So after we hung up, i called the body shop to see what info they had, and they said this insurance co. doesnt have all their shit together. The shop hadnt recieved an estimate, and she said the woman gave her the same 48/70% speil as well, and told me that thats alot of room to work with. SOOO, the bird lives. for now. operation resurrection. The spirit and legen of the phoenix truely lie with this bird with them putting it back together. I'm proud to be the owner of a trans am. The rental car place gave me a pontiac G6, which, isnt a bad car. Its a dog, but comfortable. The interior feels a bit cheap, BUT, I like two things. First, the steering wheel. It's a 3 spoke, with a nice center piece with the pontiac logo. The wheel itself is thick. Does anyone know if we can put these on our cars? i think they'd look alot better. Second, they have a small design cue that i pointed out to my girlfriend. Inside the a/c vents, they have a honeycomb plastic piece, thats a really nice touch to the interior. I'd put it in my car if I could. anyone else seen this or know what im talking about? Anyway, I thought i'd let everyone know what happend. I go see my doctor again tomorrow about my back pain, which im sure some sort of xray or other test will follow after.
