My Girl is ok. Just in shock from what happen.

I know its just a car, But she has lost days of work, I have lost days of work. Is anyone going to pay for this? No. Is he? No.

This is the 3rd time.

1st time, I was parked in my parking spot at my apartments when some drunk A$$ backs into my car with his black Lincoln SUV and drives off. No one reports the wreck and peoples sleeping windows are right there. $3K in work to my car.

2nd time, Cab hits me on the passanger side. Takes out the wheel, front bumper, controol arm spins me around and hits the back bumper and fender. $8K in work.

3rd times the charm!

Awwwwwwww........this just blows. Sorry about this whole freaking thing.
I didn't read every post, but I assume you've called the police since the accident report? Usually it gets the better of people and they will call in............not the ******* in the SUV, but others who may have seen him/it.

Sorry to hear about your loss Gil. Hope your girlfriend is all right.
There are some morons out there.
Nobody saw what happened and stopped to help her?
Any traffic cameras on the intersection/corner. Tell the insurance company to check and see if there was. I'm sure they would like to get the culprit. Save them some money and all.
Anyway Gil at least no one got hurt and you are getting another car.

Thank God my Girl is ok and not hurt. But we have no car now
No intersection/corner cameras and no one stoped. My Girl tells me she know people seen what happen but just slowed down not to get hit and keep going. I just dont get it.
Oh well **** comes around.

Damn Dom, that sucks! I hate to kick ya while you're down but from the description above, the Insurance company will most likely find your girl at fault.
(at least here in CA they would)

Here's how the insurance company will see it:
Guy changes lane, your girl over reacts and crashes the car. No contact by SUV (as seen in pictures), no witnesses, and only 1 car damaged.

Sorry man, hope they don't try and do that to ya but be prepared for a fight just in case.

Damn! Sorry man. Hope everything works out for ya.

I seriously believe SUV drivers need to get a special endorsement on their license, much like CDL licenses.

I'm still shocked no one stopped to help. Whenever I witness an accident I always call 911 and stay to be a witness. I do it because I would want people to do the same for me.

Freaky- last night my friend got hit on his motorcycle, as well.

Is that old dude standing behind the car the other driver or just a gawker?

I hope it all works out, Gil.
actually thats my dad who came to see if i was ok...the driver of the SUV booked it down the side street.

time to update your story, it doesn't mention that little love tap
I'm actually relieved to hear he did hit ya, makes things easier for you going forward.

Still REALLY sucks that this happened and that no one even stopped to help. Hope you pick up a nice M/T soon.

DAYUMMM! That suxs bro... did your girl get a plate or description on the SUV? We can keep an eye out... start calling some body shops on that particular vehicle getting repaired for damage perhaps? I dunno... anywho, good to hear you and your girl are ok...

Great shape $16,800.00 I asked the guy if they will let her go for $14K or $15K with a $1,000.00 DP. He said they can do it. Then agen you never know.
What do you guys think? Good deal?
Does he own the car free and clear? Or does he have to pay it off? If he does, then tawad that **** for your asking price... hopefully its not complicated.
oh, and will you be able to salvage some parts? Good luck on that!
