<p>[QUOTE="Jim Dale, post: 8120316, member: 100459"]The thread has dragged on so long that I can't remember what has been said, me as well as others.</p><p>Anyway, when my wife's mother passed, she got her 2003 Toyota Corolla CE. It was in great shape when she got it, but then she hit a dear and did $2,000 worth or damage. We had comprehensive and we had to come up with $500. Although it cost more to fix it than the value Blue Book said it was worth, but it was her mother's car and we used it to take our pets to the vet. It was the car that they were most comfortable with. When we got it back, it drove like a new car. About 2 years later, she ran into another deer (as you can tell, we live way into the country. After the insurance company paid for the last accident when the car was totalled, we only had liability this time. We had to make a decision to either get rid of the car or fix it. The repair cost $1,500 with no insurance. We repaired it again. Insurance companies don't repair totalled cars. We fixed it and now she drives it again. Now the A/C isn't working and the dealer said it would cost about $1,300 to fix it. I told my wife that the car is now a winter car only. We have a 2007 Toyota Camry LE, 40,000+, a 2015 Toyota Camry SE 45,000, and a 2015 Toyota Tacoma TRD, so why do we need the Corolla...because our pets like to ride in it when they go to the Vet.</p><p>There is a lot of common sense in this, but I can't see it. Anyway, I could sell one of my gold coins and have the Corolla fixed again, but I think it's my wife that needs fixing. (Plus, We are going to have to have our roof fixed on our house that is in the city. (I love my wife, or I would never go through all this, the same as she tolerates my coin hobby.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
