That's what we're hoping to do. Looks like it might be working. If it hangs out and makes it into the Gulf we'll be in big trouble. The NE quadrant of these storms is the worst, and would inflict the most damage. -D > On Sep 6, 2017, at 11:23 AM, Meade Dillon via Mercedes >

Gee, that's sort of a personal question, isn't it? Oh! You mean are we bugging out? Too early to decide. If the storm tracks up the east coast as we're hoping it does, we'll just hunker down and shelter in place. I have plywood, water, generator, fuel, etc., so we're as prepared as we can be

I don't think so. You might be confusing this with a rebuilt title. Some states require that a car with a salvage title be inspected and it's roadworthiness be attested to by a state or licensed inspector. Then it gets a "rebuilt" or "reconstructed" title. Other states don't make the

First of all, comprehensive doesn't come into play here. This is strictly a collision claim. If USAA was involved at all they would make you whole, then subrogate the claim with Amica. The adjuster should be a certified estimator, so whatever they come up with should be right, but I agree in
