    AL I did call my finance company tonight and ask about financing repairs. They did say that they had a plan in place to send quotes, but they haven't approved any in recent memory.

    that's when you ask them if they would like you to have the truck with no fairings, a hole in the roof and no fenders towed to there lot or if they will send someone for it

    maybe you can also get the roof fixed with them. this would put you back in good shape and ready to run a while.

    Yeah that came up. They'll come get it. :biggrin_25513:

    But nonetheless she did say to fax it over as soon as I knew, so who knows. I have a decent payment record and my numbers were good at the time of the loan... I doubt that's the norm. Just don't run it again!

    Thanks, I don't think the roof is going to be quite the big deal I thought. You really can't see it from next to the truck and just needs to not leak. The only people that will ever see the repair finish would be those washing it.

    I was actually going to say "and that would be when??" lol...it was indeed the obvious reply.

    I think the theme of my post was that there is bad luck...and there is creating your own bad luck....and Rob has a problem with both. I know a lot of accident prone people...they can be the nicest people in the world..that has nothing to do with it. They're just the types to take a chance...or not think 2 steps ahead...where the rest of us are cautious and conscientious of the gravity of the situation we are in. I just reached the breaking point and could not tow the theme of "what such bad luck you have...I feel so bad for you" any longer. Instead of hopping on that love fest I basically felt the need to say "Since your luck sucks to begin with...you obviously need to get on top of your #### to control the luck that you create"

    :biggrin_2556: You know what I am saying. A lot of your money issues are brought on by your poor choices, just like a lot of Rob's mechanical problems.

    let them have the truck. stay home, lease 6 or 10 trucks on and run them from the house.
     
    PharmPhail and The Challenger Thank this.
