Its a life or death decision, and for me, I choose life/MB....even if they do cost more than the average car to keep on the road. (which they usually don't)

so, you were in a CD, not an SD... MUCH greater value on that car, and Much rarer a vehicle than the SD... good luck finding another fine example of THAT... 12K is low if you had a pristine example...
very sorry.

You all have been very kind in your post. I've experienced the 3 worst professions all at one time.Attorneys, Insurance adjusters and Doctor s bills. This some times seems like the big tragedy in the whole scheme. But the wife is getting better so is helps in dealing with it all. Thanks all for your kind words. Thats the FORUM CLASS. Ray M

Glad to hear the wife is getting better. You should know the value of your car before you agree with the insurance. I hope everything goes on smoothly.
