| | So long, Taurus I totaled Gail's car Friday. We were driving down to Kenny's wedding and after glancing 2-ways, I misjudged a speeding truck's closing distance and crossed a 2-way stop. His fullsize F-150 with steel brush guard smashed into the passenger's rear quarterpanel and spun us 120 degrees. If you were to look carefully at his truck you might see that it broke a weld on his brush guard. Last month we were happy to convert over from full-coverage to the half-priced liability-only...this month we're not happy about the timeliness of that decision. Her car had just had half of it's value invested in new tires and tune-ups, and WAS running perfectly and on-track for replacement in 2-3 years--now it's on-track for replacement immediatly. No party was hurt in the accident except the stop sign. Oh, when our rear end swung around, it lashed over the curb and thumped a stop-sign 40 feet. We are looking at several replacement vehicles, and will likely make a decision in a week.
