Glad you’re back Dave, my guess is you’re flying to get your new truck. Maybe a member or two here would be kind enough to pick you up at the airport to meet your new money pit. I would if I was in the area!!

Sorry to hear (and see) that.
Problem these days is getting parts and new vehicles.
My sister's Escape was nearly totaled just from backing into a utility pole because of the cost of the backup sensors in the bumper.

Thanks Doug. I'm glad to see you back on and hope all has been well with you. It has been a long time!! Talk about being in the wrong place at the wrong time. lol What's worse is I left 5 minutes later than normal and kind of beat myself up over that. Oh well it's done and almost over with now. I hope you pop in more often and don't be such a stranger here!

Thanks Andy. The dealer is only 10 minutes from the airport and the sales manager said he'll have someone pick me up. You could drive up there and give me a ride though. ? Let me know how things are working out with the realtor when you have time.

Thanks Jon. That was my fear too with the part delays and having it drag on for months. Luckily the loss adjuster took this into account to while doing their appraisal.

Glad no one is hurt! Sucks that it happened, but you will love the new Tremor!
Thanks Erik. Yes it could've been a lot worse and I feel for those who have to deal with tragic accidents. While this was stressful it's nothing compared to being laid up in the hospital or worse.

That’s not as far fetched as you might think. I got to take my wife’s cousin back to Seattle Next week.

Yeah it's only another 300 miles to Spokane and a nice drive in the cool of the evening if you go then. It was my weekly commute back in the mid 80's. :)

The good thing is the body shop could care less what I do so I'm taking everything I find useful. There's so much stuff thrown back there they'll never realize the taillights are gone. I'm also taking the tilting headrests and engine cover too. ?
Glad everyone is okay, sorry about the truck, hope you you find a Gen5 replacement. Has anyone claimed the engine cover yet:bandit:

I love white because it's easier to keep clean. But being a detail nut once you're done it just doesn't have that "pop" like the darker colors do. There's not a lot of choices out there so I really can't be to picky. I did find a Cactus Gray Tremor in Idaho Falls but the dealer wanted $1,200 for a paint protection that they didn't even apply yet. It just arrived and was still in all the plastic. After I told him no he text me back and said if it didn't sell over the weekend he'd consider selling it without out on Monday. :mad: I'd rather drive the extra miles up to WA and deal with someone honest!
Come on now, hold out for the BLUE you can thank me later
