Default my evo update

hey guys its been a good while sense ive been on here haha.

but ya here is an update finally!

so state farm or the devil as it has come to be known around these here parts, give me a little call yesterday after a month and half of dicking me around.

and guess what they say! after recieving all my paper work and reciepts and all that they adjusted the value of my car to $$32,000 up thats not a freakin typo i won and got the value up to 32k but not all was good with that house of cards!

the gimick is that i only get the pay off of 32 grand if i dont keep the car!! *remember i owe 26k to the finance company.

they stated if i wanted to keep the car the pay off would only be 25.5k and still owe my finance some extra change and hopefully not deal with the drama of who gets the pink slip when!

but maybe the extra tax and license money they give you which usually is an extra 1.5-2 grand may just cover all that.


but at this point im thinking of just taking the car and the 25.5k deal only becuase no one in my house is in a good possition to be taking out a loan on a new car.


OH YA AND HIII EVERYONE!

I'm old fashioned. Something is only worth what somebody else will pay. So, I think that house was worth $170k and not a penny more. That's just how I roll.

thats sean i think the song "i fought the law and i won" is pretty proper right about now.

and ya im not a big fan of credit and people always evaluating the worth of something and building a world around that sort of brittle institution.

but for now it pays damn well so im gonna go along with it until the bubble burst $$$$




PS!!!!

oh damn on some other good news i just found out! my dad called up the fanance company to see if he could haggle them to take a lower pay off so that we could keep a little bit more insurence money to fix the evo with.

well he stated that they insurence was only paying out 20k and he couldnt afford the balance of the rest of the payment. so he asked them if they would take that as a pay off and terminate the loan well after the loan guy flipped out and cured his ass off and threated with collections my dad called his bluff and got angry and told the guy that he was just trying to be nice by letting them take 20k because he said after that he was gonna file for bankruptcy but if they are gonna be dick he said i'll just file before you guys get ur money and then u guys wont get shit and they calmed down and said he would call him back.

so they call back and they said we have great news for you we are gonna put the 20k balance in writing and make a contract for a 14day payoff for the title hahahah wow im freakin suprised that shit worked! so they faxed us all that in writing and now we're taking it to statefarm as proof that we should get payed the remaining amount, damn its a good weekend

so to everyone out there, you dont have to bend over and take it from your insurance company, and finance company too.

the only thing that ruined my day a little was passing by the pomona ethanol station and finding it to still be under heavy construction when its estimated opening date is supposed to be next friday

Take the cash, pay off the debt, and start a new relationship.
