hi i was talking about that all he was talking about was how the car is all shitty and everything when he didn't even ask if chris is ok or anything along the lines of that

i'm pretty sure it's common sense to know what a doorhandle and all that shit is...and the point wasn't directed to you.

but thanks anyways

my old car caught on fire too but it was hella fucking old so I didn't care. it was a pontiac feiro. Apperently there known for that!!

yeah man..soon he'll have trouble with normal lingo like "store" "Computer" and "food"

if the vdub breaks down it will cost quite a bit more then the pontiac...but thats a rare occurence with most vdubs....plus there a helluva lot nicer then an american car of equal price could ever hope to be.

i personally like both domestic and imports, but i'd say domestics break down twice as much more than imports(depending on which). And being without a car REALLY is an inconvenience.2 hour bus ride to work was NOT fun today.

if i had a car id drive you chris!

icbc determines if a car is a right off this if the damage is >75% of the value of the car, regardless how old it is.
Meaning, if you smashed a $200,000 lamborghini (with doorhandles, and all!), you would have to cause $150,000 or more in damage. In that example it wouldn't be too hard to do because lambo parts are expensive, but on a normal car, if you crashed and lets say bent the frame, the body panels would no longer line up properly, and the car could not be repaired to its original condition.

of course, if you have like >75% damage to your car, you can always bitch at icbc to pay you out or some shit and try to fix the car urself. Same with <75%. you can always bitch and whine to them.

no, i am not miss myra. But if she already asked, why would i ask if i know he's alright?

Turns out it's a fuel injector problem. And now ICBC and GM are trying to weasle their way out of paying for it. I'm going to see a lawyer and someone is gettin sued. This is BS

[Sh4n3]

SUE ICBC THOSE MOTHER FUCKERS, SUE THEM!

:kam:

[Sue Bitch]

hi i am SUE

[supa liana]

heh.. thats funny, my car caught fire a couple years ago too....not surprisingly it wuz a pontiac fiero....... :finger: <----to the makers of pontiac... yah, thats right.

[specialkonrd]

they cant weasle there was out
gm made defective injectors, and are therefor responsible. I dont recall ever signing some kind of contract that i would not hold nissan responsible for anything that might happen to my car.
ICBC always tries to weasle out of everything, so bare with them, they have to pay up if gm doesn't. all they can argue is who has to pay, them, or gm.

but if u wanna scam a car with icbc, thats how u do it. damage the lil rubber seal around one of your injectors, run it for a week or two so some fuel gets spilled, and light er up...

[BabyBlaze]

thats crazy...the something happened to my friend when he was at whistler....

[ty:rone]

domestic cars depreciate twice as fast as imports
cars like mustangs wear n tear really fast even if u don't work it like a mutha

[mushmellow]

ya noe wut chris....life w/ no ride sux....
