Park crooked all you like. Well, that's no longer correct to say. Sorry about saying anything negative about your parking (everyone should learn from someone's karma here and the loss of their sable Ranger that may be related to their parking perspective and opinions of others). =p

The only thing that matters is what kind of parker you identify as. It's not my place to define that for you (despite tires being over lines and all of that). =D

I support you Tracy as a Straight Parker (I'm sure your day is now complete and your life fulfilled!). =D

That's not a bad parking job....looks like the owner was intentionally trying to hide it in the bushes as he's probably ashamed it a Toyo......

Ok that's a nice looking one the black wheels look good with the white body color and you'll have it all broken in on the ride back.
Also you could be around 6 months out (from now) waiting for a 6G and i'm not to excited from looking at the pics of them either, they might be better in person with a particular color or exterior package at the least you could always trade up to that gen if you wanted to in the future.
So there's a silver lining in your mishap, a new truck, road trip and modding starts all over:D

Finally there's a light at the end of the tunnel! :whew:

I received a call from the final loss adjuster this morning and here's the total number they're paying me. $51,081. :shock: I can't stress enough how important it is to have Full Replacement Value on your policy! When I spoke to a different adjust on Friday he didn't realize I had this coverage and the payout would've been only $ 37,574.00. o_O So I received just over $13,000 more for this $67.00/yr add on. I only owe $4,200 on my 2019 (had 0%) then they deducted my deductible ($500) so even after all that I'll still net $46,380. The new Tremor is $49,210 + 200 doc fee - 1,250 rebate Ford had sent me bring the new price to 48,160 making my out of pocket only $1,780. Needless to say I won't be taking a loan out for this one which is nice seeing at rates are so high now.:party: One thing I forgot was they do add back to me for taxes and fees so the bottom line number they paid for just the Ranger was $47,505.00.

I just went to the credit union and had the Power of Attorney letter notarized and overnighted back to Travelers releasing the truck to them. She said everything should be done by the end of next week. I'm making plans to fly out to WA on 4/16 to pick up Money Pit 2. We'll probably stay overnight there and get an early start in the morning. Plus it'll give me a chance to put a few city miles on it before hitting the highway Wednesday. Again, thank you all for the support and wishes and soon enough I'll be spending money (again) on mods but the good thing is the tires and suspension are already done this time. ?

Glad it worked out for you!
Don't forget to pack the 303 and the damper. Wouldn't want you driving the new Ranger home naked. ?

Thanks KJ! I can't bring the 303 because we're not checking a bag. I'll have to put the damper on once back home, there's NO WAY I'm taking any chances with TSA confiscating my damper. :stop::bandit:

That's so awesome, so are you checking your damper or carrying on for the flight out (only one correct answer - carry on)?

Congratulations and kudos for turning this terrible event into a resolved one so quickly!

Can't wait to see all the new pics.

Oh, and you'll graphene it before such a long bug-ridden drive, right?

Thanks David! It's been 4 1/2 weeks and most of that time without a rental which made it feel like a year. lol What's worse is it's heating up here so by the time I get back home I doubt I'll be able to give it a full detail (wash, clay, Graphene) unless we get a unexpected cool front which never happens in May. ?

Why are you eating a deductible? It wasn’t your fault so the other insurance company picks that up as well. Get back on the horn with your insurance co and get your 500 bucks back! Then the new one only costs you $1280.00‼

It's because I used my insurance (having the replacement value) then mine will go after hers for everything including the deductible. Her's already accepted blame for it and I forgot the technical name (something like sub ligation?) but it's a process they do and she said I'll get it back.
