  • went through a ditch last night

    last night i was coming home from a concert when on my side of the road there was a deer, it was on a curve too. so i cut my wheel lost control and hit a ditch... yeah it sucks. i tore off some of my front bumper and i think bent my exhaust. i dont know what to do though, turn it in to insurance or not. the car is actually fine, just some cracks in the front end and my fog light got knocked out of place. just watch out for deer people!!

    That sucks, I hit a ditch in my old camaro once but it was my fault. I was going around a curve in the rain and decided to punch it to break lose the tires but i did it too much and the back end broke out and i spun into a ditch going about 65, Hit thewater filled bank of the ditch and flew out the other end and hit someones mailbox, went through their fence, through their flower garden and came to a stop about a foot from their glass front door. $8150 in damage and i was still able to drive it home after that. my camaro was bullet proof

          That's a bummer!

          FEAR THE DEER!

          I would not turn it into the insurance company.

          :cool:

              if i was you i would get an estimate of how much it will cost to fix and then decide if it's worth the deductable/higher insurance rates

                get estimates on repairs if not more than I would say $2000 don't turn it in, all depending on your deductible.

                    Yea dont turn it in, insurance comapny will rape you.

                    Someone bashed out my window. I called the insurance company and they wanted my 500$ deductable for a 210$ window job.
