Hi Dave, Your new van looks like a sweet ride! A shame you smacked the other van, but you'll come out with a nice ride. I'm glad nobody was injured. Stay strong.

Fwd: [QUAD-L] Smacked my van - Gap Insurance
No - once totaled and paid off by the primary ins company, they (the ins co) now owns the van. The gap insurance is from a 3rd party who will send the lender the difference of what my primary insurer pays and what I owe. Basically, my lender (Credit Union) gets paid in full for the remaining balance due on my old van partly from my primary insurer ( Farmers ) and partly by the Gap Insurer. I'm free and clear.I don't completely understand why the Gap Insurer will send my lender $1,000 just for buying $220 worth of coverage from them again on the new van that's a complete mystery to me. I'll let you know when I find out. Dave _Visit My Home Page_ (http://www.users.qwest.net/~daveoc/index.html) BRBRBR**BR AOL now offers free email to everyone.

Re: [QUAD-L] Smacked my van - Gap Insurance
Consider yourself most fortunate. I've seen vehicles with worse damage that were repaired and returned to its owner. Your old van, will be sold to a junk yard for 100-200 bucks with a scrap title. He can never be sold again as a used vehicle. However, that same vehicle will be chopped and parted for individual parts totaling thousands of dollars in parts. But that is the name of the game. You might consider adding a safety feature to your car that prevent that from happening again, or watch where you park. Best Wishes W In a message dated 2/28/2007 10:38:44 A.M.

Re: [QUAD-L] Smacked my van - Gap Insurance
Lucky is definitely the word Wally. Good AND bad luck actually - just bought 4 new tires, new speakers for the radio, new AC compressor... and a completely fluke accident. I was afraid they'd pry it back into shape and return it to me. I would have sold it on the street hopefully for enough to cover my loan - but I would have felt bad thru the whole thing. I'm really glad it turned out like it did. wifey has vowed never to get behind the wheel again - unless we move the seat over, or leave the motor off. parking is definitely a problem, the only way I'm safe is to park cornerwise in two spots with the door pointed out to the driveway. did it the other way once and someone squeezed into the 1/2 a spot I left open with my door facing in. even the handicapped spots are no good as people park over their lines into the hash marks between us and block me, or a motorcycle will park on the hash marks - - the trip in from the last spot where no one wants to park anyway isn't all that bad. I just drop wifey off up front. from now on, I'm PLANNING my luck - no more trusting the stars. Dave In a message dated 2/28/2007 9:43:09 A.M.

Re: [QUAD-L] Smacked my van - Gap Insurance
I'm only going to say this one time. Get two traffic cones, (stealing them is the best way because they get stolen a lot). Block the space beside your van with them. If you do get parked in then go in the store and tell them that car has left its lights on. If you live in an area where you always get parked in, try using spaces farther away. Doctors give out those parking permits like they use to give out lollipops. I've seen people with handicapped parking permits for being obese. I know your all thinking what I'm thinking. Say something to doctors about it when you see them.

Re: [QUAD-L] Smacked my van - Gap Insurance
I'm not about to get into the enforcement phase of this problem. I've heard too many horror stories about irate fatties getting physical after being taken to task by a civilian gimp. They already know the law and the rules and that they are 'cheating' the system, basically they DON'T CARE.I said something to a senior who parked on the yellow hashes between two HC spots and he said, I don't need the extra room, but I do like parking up close. This violation mind set needs to be fixed by the enforcement agency (and hopefully the doctors writing these foolish scripts) not me. I just want to come and go as I please even if it means parking out at the end. My rocket erases any distance inconvenience added by parking out in bfe. Dave In a message dated 2/28/2007 5:42:48 P.M.

Re: [QUAD-L] Smacked my van - Gap Insurance
In Ohio parking lots are mostly private and cops can't give tickets and don't even in public lots. I have had a ticket for blocking traffic while I was getting out of the van. I made the mistake of using an Access bus parking spot. Access is code for we are on time 22% of the time which closely correlates to the number of retarded people that sign the card saying they enjoyed riding the bus for 3 1/2 hours to go 17 miles. If it wasn't for Access there wouldn't be jobs for crack addicts and gangbangers. There is no drug testing either. john -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; quad-list@eskimo.com Sent: Wed, 28 Feb 2007 7:56 PM Subject: Re: [QUAD-L] Smacked my van - Gap Insurance In a message dated 2/28/2007 6:42:48 P.M.
