Default Sorry to say but.......

My 3 is no longer with us. It took the long ride into the sky today at 4:30pm. And from what I'm told it was in the air for a bit. Got into a 5 car accident after work today and my 3 ended up the worst of the five cars. A truck rear ended the honda beside me and the honda clipped the rear of my 3 sending me spinning and flipping airborne into a Chevy truck, then into on to my top sliding about 20 yrds.Sorry to say but.......-mms_picture_4.jpg

Default gonna miss my Mazda

well the other guys insurance came through for me. Gave me 9900 for my totaled 3. Problem is my job is not very solid right now due to the fact we are in the housing industry and the city I live in is in the top 9 worst cities for recovery in the housing market. So needless to say now is not the time to be incurring a new car payment. Loved and miss my 3. thanks for all the great advise. Maybe when I find a new line of work I will get me another, well that is if I can find one(they aren't the easiest cars to find used and I'm not willing to buy new) Again thanks to everyone that helped me when I needed advice.

I just saw your other thread (which I'm going to combine with this one.) I must have been preoccupied with other things. So sorry.

I had no idea, Scorpion!!! That's TERRIBLE!!! I'm sorry for you.
But the important thing is that you are (and I assume the others too?) all right... certainly enough to post it here. And I'm glad you did too. Cars are replaced all the time, but people can't be.

Sounds like you have a good Noggin on your shoulders.
Good Luck
