The little Ranger that could

They’re going to fix my truck!

I think I’m happy about this, but I can’t help but feel suspicious about the whole thing. I mean, I saw my truck. I inspected it. The shit is fucked up, bad. I didn’t think there was any way it could be fixed for a reasonable amount of money.

But my insurance company is willing to spend $2300. This was a big surprise to me–I thought I was only covered up to $1600. Oh well, I’m not going to argue. The thing that I find peculiar is this: the body shop that I took my truck to has quoted *exactly* $2300 to fix the damage. Doesn’t that sound a little odd to you? This is the body shop that my insurance company insisted that I take my truck to.

Let’s recap. Someone hits my truck and diasppears. I call insurance company and they say to take it to ABC body shop. ABC body shop says they can fix it. My insurance company says that they’ll cover $2300. ABC body shop quotes exactly that amount, $2300.

What a scam. Whatever, it doesn’t cost my anything. I never really cared about my truck’s looks anyway. All I ever wanted was a reliable truck. I hope that after I get it back it still is.

  1. ABC Body Shop? Are you jiving? Are they affiliated with the ABC Store’s all over Hawaii? What kind of name is ABC? Is that an acronym for something? Is it because ABC is as easy as 1,2,3? Sounds like a racket dude! Hopefully Lil’ Red will still be chuggin’ after ABC tinkers with it!
