First was on Sept, 2nd in October, and 3rd just now (Dec) [06:10] DaemonFC I do NOT want to pay another $500 in deductibles I am so ready to get rid of the car and get another one. I have already been in contact with the bank and was just about to get an appraisal started. I started an online appraisal on carmax and was estimated 7600. I still owe 7800 for reference. However, its now been broken into again! It was in my apartment parking garage. It also hasn't even been a week since I've had it!! [06:10] DaemonFC I'm not sure my insurance (Geico) will want to deem it as totaled. I totally want it gone what are my options? I'm waiting on the adjuster to tell me what they will deem it as. It most likely would be repairable but honestly the steering wheel column looked very messed up. I really do want a new car. I'm somewhat down to move that negative equity from my loan over to my new car but I need this headache gone and out of my life! Someone pls give [06:10] DaemonFC me advice on what to do :/ Oh I also did try to talk to my Hyundai dealership for an appraisal and they told me estimated 500-700 which is a complete joke as well. [06:11] DaemonFC MinceR, This is hilarious. [06:12] DaemonFC I'd probably set my deductible at $100 if my car was going to be vandalized every month by one of the stupid "teenagers" who saw a Kia logo on it.
