OK, so there is a GREAT ending to this story!!!!

the lady that bought my 2004 XLT Excursion, because her '04 excursion she had since new had been toatled. well she kept her old truck(67k miles) and it just had front axles/t-case damage along with some body parts but not bad. anyway SHE BOUGHT IT!! so now i'll be able to go visit both my old Excursions when i go out to visit her in Wasilla!

i'm happy as a clam now! plus it wont go to auction or the crusher, and she said if i need any parts to just come get'em(over time)

thought i would share that with you guys

i know i should not talk about the ongoing claim..ect i just wanted to say i've never had somthing like this happen. if i could go back that day and take a different way to work or run alittle later i would. this has been a NIGHTMARE! i'm in pain and it just sucks dealing with all the paperwork, phone calls, doc visits..ect ect it screws up your whole life for who knows how long. i'm just venting things have been hard latly and very stressful.

Insurance companies are the worst thing in the world to deal with. Only way for them to make a profit is to screw someone over. Hang in there bud!
