And your comment improves the thread how?

Sorry to hear about the car lilred. Best of luck in getting it all quickly sorted out.

best of luck Red....I truly hope that you do by another Yaris. As you know they are great cars. I actually just had a conversation with my x-wife the other day that she thinks it is ridiculous to buy a car and then pour thousands of bucks into it when someone could take that money and get "the same stuff" without all the hassle. She doesn't care for the Yaris so she just doesn't get it...best of luck.

The car got move to a different tow lot today to make it easier for the insurance person to look it over. I have been told it is looking like its going to be a total loss. With that said I am going to start looking for another vehicle. I am taking suggestions for a new (probably going to buy used to keep the price down) it needs to be family friendly (2 adults 2 kids) a couple years old and not american.

Crazy their totalling it. I've had 3 major incidents ($4,800 - $8,000 - $5,300) and they want to keep fixing mine and I have over 84k miles

Not the lilredrocket!

lilredrocket · 08-11-2010, 11:30 PM

No offical word yet but they keep saying it might be. I have started pulling part off it at the tow lot. Didn't get much taken off because I didn't have long and it was 105 out and not a cloud in the sky. I should hear something tomorrow when the adjuster goes and looks at it. If I get word it is totaled I am going to look for a xB2, Matrix, or possibably a Rav4.

Quite the bummer, and waiting for the adjuster to do their thing just prolongs the agony. I think I'd lean toward the XB2 of MAtrix, but guess it all depends on what your looking for in a car.

I got final word yesterday that they totaled my Yaris. They said the frame was bent. So the search is on for a new car
