Front bumper destroyed
Grill smashed
Headlights smashed
Frame damaged
Hood damaged
Passanger door won't open
Driver's door snaps quite a bit
Fan shroud moved inward quite a bit.

I looked up the KBB private party, looks like the TB's value around here is about $10000 - $13000 or so. I only owe $6750, so all-in-all I'm pretty good I think if they total it. If they don't, they're going to have to pay me for a rental car for 2-3 weeks (a good one too, not some sub-compact) and then they'll pay me for the loss-of-value caused by the wreck.

Anyhow, my back and neck are pretty sore now that my addreneline has worn off. I think I need a nap.

I wouldn't count on it, since he's hoping for a total, in which the insurance company gets the truck of course...not that I could use any prts off of it anyways, except maybe the seats....

I had a full cup of coffee too. 24 ounces.

Not sure where it all went, don't see a drop of liquid inside the Trailblazer at all.

ARGH! State Farm is being a PAIN! (correction: Farmers Insurance)

It's clear that it's 0% my fault and 100% the other driver's fault. She was cited by the city of Arlington for failure to yeild right-of-way ... but they want to drag it out and will not get me a rental car becuase they're not sure that it was all her fault ... mabye I could have been trying to go around cars or something. (I wasn't!)

Oh well, another day at home will make my inconvenience fee and etc will go up.

Dude that sux. I've been in a few accidents. A couple mine a couple not mine. Hope everything works out in your favor.

Holy Cow! I'm glad your OK too. You could have had my Trailblazer.

Being Canadian and all. You really should learn to not spill coffee (An accident is no excuse) thats the sad part here. What a terrible waste of coffee
