This is how last week ended for me!!

[AmericanEagle575]

Driving home from work last Friday,lost focus for a sec and didn't allow enough space to stop safely and rear-ended another car, fortunately no one was injured and I just got a warning from the Police , dropped the car off at the dealership yesterday,I'm guessing that it'll take a month to fix,thank goodness for insurance and deductible,etc. On another note,I'm still waiting for my CPAP Machine to be delivered and have been told it'll be another 3 weeks due to Supply and demand,etc......My Vacation with my Dad to the Antietam Battlefield in Maryland in July is looking better and better each day, Can't Wait.............................

Glad it was only property damage. I bet you won't do that again, one of those hard lessons learned. Glad you're alright buddy!

Thank you for all thoughts, well here's a update,the insurance company decided to total my car instead of repairing it as there was $11,000 worth of damages,so I'm getting my loan paid off+ Money back and next week I start shopping for a newer used car, hope all of my Friends have a wonderful and Blessed Happy Easter!!

I have been a Vette man all my life, currently have a '75 but I find the C8 the worst looking model ever. It's a Ferrari not a Vette!

I like the 75 corvette style for sure. However I do find the new c8 to be sharp.
It is way out of my price range. I hope to get my old 64 chevy ii back on the road. Again. I had it going but ran into rear axle problems.

About three years ago I wanted a second vehicle just in case my 2004 Ram needed shop time. I got a 2011 Volvo xc60 t6.
I like the car pretty well. It's AWD and has a turbo 6 cylinder. For a grocery getter it will get and go.

Good luck car shopping.

Oh wow!! Just saw this post. I'm glad you were able to walk away from that mess, Steve.
I totaled a car in San Antonio last year. 11 car pile up, 75 mph on I-10. Thankfully I walked away, although a bit slow. AND, I was in a rental.
I hope you find a replacement soon!
But most importantly, you're ok.
