Not worth repairing. It would probably never drive the same.

The estimate to repair came in at $18K and didn't include any suspension work. Far more than the vehicle value, so total loss. Too bad, i liked that car.

I'm back....

Just picked this one up, it's going on the truck from Florida to Pittsburgh on Monday. One year newer than the one that was totaled, fewer miles and this one has the factory GPS and bluetooth option.

Can't wait to get it!
