Nowadays, many insurance companies are very sensitive to the potential of your wife developing health problems (from the accident), due to them trying to cheap-out on the settlement, and are eager to just get it done, and move along. My son caused an accident 3 years ago, and the other party is trying to retire on his mistake. Very common these days.
Here's the punch line- The estimate was $8,800. Indiana being a 70% ACV state, the van was totaled.
Anticipating this, I went though Cars.com, Autotrader.com and Autotempest.com and came up with 26 comparable vans within 150 miles. I came up with what a price I thought was fair for the actual cash value for the equipment (everything) and the miles (high) and prepared to go to war. Then Geico went and offered me pretty much exactly what I had determined was the ACV. No war.
We will be picking up our new used 2018 Pacifica tomorrow. This thing has equipment that I barely knew existed...but is pretty cool. All this stuff to keep you from having an accident...but nothing to keep teen-aged drivers from running into you from behind.

An insurance deductible

... We're not litigious.
From his prior posts, he does mostly defense work I believe. Who knows, they may have even done some work for the GEICO before.Wait, what? You better scrub this post before your employer sees it, no?

I was going to say $7,500. I just went through this with my now former 2013 Subaru Outback. I started to turn left from a stop and t-boned someone travelling about 20-30 mph. Minimal impact, didn't feel bad. not much damage to their car's body. Ripped the plastic front end off mine but their rear wheel grabbed my underlying steel front bumper which torqued the whole car around. Buckled the hood and driver's door. With 90,000 miles it totaled out at around $12,000.
Snorko likes his new Subaru Forester.
What about a CIWS?Here's the punch line- The estimate was $8,800. Indiana being a 70% ACV state, the van was totaled.

Snorko, sir, how'd you decide between the Forester and Outback? Wife and I are just starting the looking process.
True, but I have settled the property damage only. We do not anticipate making a PI claim, though. We're not litigious.
hah, whatever. You’re involved in lawsuits ALL. THE. TIME.
