Sucks man, glad you're ok and still around for your family/friends. You'll be back in a new ride soon enough.

I wish a damaged car was the worst day of my life. Seems great.

I wish I was as bitter as you and wasn't able to recognize a little sarcasm. That definitely seems like the way to go..

Seriously though, my apologies if your decisions have somehow not worked out the way you had hoped. Sometimes life happens. It happened to me yesterday, but I'll get over it.

It's a shame about your car. Glad you are OK.

I get sick of watching Marines die myself but I try to keep that where it belongs, in my prayers.

And yet you yourself then followed up with an even more melodramatic comment than Hum's.

You are right.


I don't doubt, though, that everyone has their own pain and suffering and it's all off topic. I think as far as this forum goes, what OP went through sucks pretty bad and it could be worse only a few ways, many of which involve bodily harm. So I guess I still stand behind the first half of what I said and there are better ways to support our troops when it comes to the second half.

If we stayed perfectly on topic in every thread then this would be a very dry and boring place. Smashing a car up realy sucks yes but I agree with many of the others that if it is "the worst day" of anybody's life then things are pretty good all in all.

That's why I am such a big fan of yours. But I am a very boring stand up straight kind of guy so the on topic angle is all I can really provide to the community. I do think picking on him for it being "the worst day" is kind of reaching because he's already pretty down but it's all in good fun I guess.... until divorce and death showed up and I was a little taken back.

I think it's safe to say that I was being just a bit sarcastic. Obviously things could be a lot worse.

As far as divorce, I've been through that as well. Trust me, that was nearly the exact opposite of what this is.

Truth is, the RS1.0 was my first car purchase. I had about $5k in mods, all of which I'm wondering if I'll get back or at least get compensated for, plus many more planned. Now I have to find another RS1 (no luck so far) and start over, or go with a different platform.

At the end of the day, I'm happy to be alive. Could've been much, much worse. But damn...

Picking on him is one thing but things like Hum said are another.
Us old guys like to provide some guidance and insight where we can. It is sometimes misunderstood though.

Did you declare your mods to the insurance?
As I understand in most States if not at fault then they are covered by the other guy's insurance.


I presume you were at a dead stop when he hit all of you? Here if moving even a little and somebody hits you and pushes you into the next car you are still found to be partially at fault because you were "to close".

Sorry about the car. Glad you're ok. Atlanta traffic can be a train wreck. Don't miss that aspect of it but sure miss the weather. Hope you're able to find a garage queen to replace it.
