• It Was *Supposed* to be for Vacation

    "I'm paying to have my car repaired after I somehow got it straddled over this curb. What the heck is a control arm, anyway? I may have enough left over for half a tank of gas or so."

  • Have you ever seen a curb? Seriously, you shouldn't be getting a check, you should be getting dumb@$$ tax after rolling your car up there.

    Have you heard of a control arm? More like, have you heard of driving a straight line? Idiot.

  • Really? You actually took your time to write that? Why would you call someone you don't know an idiot? I take it you've never made a mistake? The curb is very poorly designed - it starts less than a foot from where my car is, halfway up the ramp. I did drive a straight line - it's just that that line meant one tire was on the other side of the curb. Oops.
    Maybe you should get therapy with your check? Anger management? Pack o' chill pills?

  • Yup, it's easy to miss that double-hight, painted-yellow curb. <rolls eyes>

  • Actually I've done the same thing but not in the same way - I was backing out of a weird parking space and somehow wedged my car up on one of these things sideways. I don't know how in the world you did this, just trying to drive over it??? Anywho - no insurance I presume? I think the repair to my vehicle would've been close to $2K but with insurance only had to pay the deductible...
