Fortunately my father is a manager of a Chrysler dealership out in California, im going to have him try and find me something from the auction or if they get a crappy trade in I can get it for what they bought it for. I just need a ride to last me about a year to get enough money saved up and fix me credit.

Im praying I also get a decent sized compensation for this guy who tried to kill me and ruined me life. Enough for a good sized down payment would be great! But I know im going to have alot of medical bills that will need to be taken care of first, luckly he had insurance and so do I, so that should soften the blow. The ambulance ride alone was $1,332! I was in the intensive care wing for 3 days and spend another 4 days in the regular section of the hospital in bed.

I was given 2 IV's and had several scans/xrays done of my head I was also give a prescription for medication and also given staples in my head and they were removed 2 weeks later. I then had a scan done from a 3rd part MRI company who is sending my lawyer a loan that they will have to pay from out of the $ we receive from his and my insurance.

I think its safe to assume all this medical stuff is going to be a LOT of money sadly. I just hope there is enough between my and the guy who hit me insurance so I wont end up owing anybody. My sister is guessing that in total the medical bills will be around $40,000. Because my medical insurance from my job does not kick in until Dec. 2, so at the time of the accident I did not have medical insurance. All I have is my body injury insurance from geico which I think covers up to $15,000

Wow, as messed up as our medical system is up here I am glad we have it for things like that. Our system is great for life critical emergencies, its the non so critical ones that it fails so badly its not even funny.

Hope it all gets sorted.

Found some more pics with some good memories with her =/ last mod I installed was a JWT Pop Charger intake, a week before the accident, it sounded great! Everyone I showed my car to didn't believe me when I said it was an 03 because it was still so clean and modern looking.

Yeah, medical bills are going to suck! Luckily theres no real time frame you have to pay them by, so you can at least spread it out a bit.. Have you thought about renting a car? I did that for a little while when my truck got stolen, and it wasnt that much more than what my truck payment and insurance was. I think i was paying like $550 a month for the rental. I have a corporate discount program that i could get you through my work. If youre interested in doing that PM me and i will see what the rates are. At least you'll have a brand new car to drive around.

For that much I might as well buy that 370z lol the payments would have been $448 a month, less than a rental.

Sadly, this is my new ride. Ill see how long I can use it to get to/from work until I can save enough to buy a beater for cash.

Its just an easy thing to do if you need a car fast. You dont have to worry about looking, coming up with the down payment, and all that. Even if you just kept it for a couple weeks to figure out what you are going to do, it wouldnt be a bad idea. Just trying to help

Oh I appreciate the help! =) I think my best solution is to use the Uber taxi app, it says it should cost about $10-$13 for a ride to work, so basically $50/week for rides. Since a co worker can take me home, I wont need to worry about having to use Uber to get home.

Oh nice, im right over by Paradise Valley mall, I grew up in CA. I dont like AZ as much, but this is a pretty nice place to live. Cost of living is nicer here so that's a plus!
