Ok, so the guy who totalled my taildragger came by the other night to talk about settling the damages.

I told him that the damage was about 14K (total worth of the car minus what I got for the wreck and some parts that I took off of it). Which I think is a very reasonable amount, since I took the value of the car by what I would have gotten for it if I sold it. If I wanted to replace the exact same car, the amount would have been MUCH higher...

He offers me to pay half of that!
Then he says that from the 7K he feels he ows me, he'll pay 4K in cash
The rest he'll make up for by selling my house (he's a real estate agent)

But hang on, the best thing is yet to come...
Next he tells me that if I don't have enuf money to buy another car, he'll LEND me the money for it
And he tells me he thinks THAT'S a reasonable offer (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

W T F ???

I told him NO FUCKING WAY. You break it, you pay it, simple as that...

I don't think I've ever been so stupified in my entire life.

This is prolly gonna end in a lawsuit (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

cheers,

Jeroen
