I really liked this color, so I bought another Acura RDX Aspec AWD. This one doesn't have the red interior but other than that, it is pretty much the same as the last one. The damage is a little different so let's get into this job and see just what it will take to get it back on the road.

I’m simply amazed at what insurance companies consider a “write-off” … Surely the repair cost on this is nowhere near the replacement cost… Oh well… at least it keeps our favourite UKpostsr in business and keeps us entertained

If the insurance loss payout minus auction proceeds is less than insurance repair/rental payout, the vehicle gets totaled. Then Scott pays the pizza girl.

My hands were covered with warts from handling hydraulic fluid in the Navy. They were ugly and getting them off was painful. Years later, as a mechanic, I was happy as a pig in slop when they came out with the exam gloves and the mechanic's gloves. Say what you want about them, but even more than 25 years after I left a 22+ year mechanic's career, I'm still happy for the "b*tch mittens."
