Hit a curb going 50

Yeah, so reading comprehension helps.

Technically true? Anyways, you're not talking about $10/month, you're talking about $40/month, so nearly $500/year.

Yeah, didn't say that.

Emphasis on why spend money you don't need to spend. Which is quite literally my entire point. That and your $10/month premium increase is bullshit.

No one is saying that. The suggestion, plain and simple, is to not invite a claim and raise in premiums before assessing the damage.

 

Can’t get the truck in until the 7th. Drives fine other than it pulling to the right and the lights screaming at me. I’ll post an update once I’m able to take it in. Thanks for the help everyone.

 

I hope your not driving it until the 7th...

 

It’s my only rig. Unfortunately I have to. Fingers crossed.

 

Get your wallet ready, Depending on how out the alignment is you may need new front tires to go with the rest of the broken stuff if you keep driving.

 

That’s gangsta! Drive it till the wheels fall off!

 

Wont have to go far...

 

Send it!

 

You'll have something bent under there for sure. That thing should have been at the shop right away.

 

If you report this to your insurance company, and/or have the fix done where they are going to report it to CARFAX, think twice about where you have it repaired. Make a special request, "No reporting to CARFAX". I do not know if that will help.
Carfax has bird dogs in most facilities, reporting accidents, etc.
Realize, this can cost you more then what the repair is, when you go to sell or trade. I am sure these people that report to Carfax, get their
little bit of dough. Trying to get Carfax to modify a report, is like trying to move a mountain, lip service is all you get. You can see how they make their dough, $39.95 each time.

 

Yeah, it would be awful if the next buyer knew that this guy drove into a curb at 50 mph.

 

OP....curious.....

What were you doing when you hit the curb at 50 mph with the left front wheel?

and

Lessons learned??

 

Seriously... I'm not a fan of the disingenuous approach. Put yourself on the receiving end of that, now how do you feel having bought a vehicle used that had accidents intentionally hidden? Seems criminal, actually.

 

Truck is all good! It only needed an alignment. Thank you everyone who had something helpful to say!
